LAURA BUSH SAYS HILLARY KEPT BAD HOUSE; WEST WING DECORATIONS WERE GAUDY, OUTDATED

First Lady Laura Bush believes Hillary Clinton did not keep good house during her time as first lady, a new book will charge.

Ron Kessler, a former investigative reporter for the WASHINGTON POST and the WALL STREET JOURNAL, is set to unleash his account of Laura Bush.

On December 18, 2000, just after the Supreme Court ruled on the election, Hillary Clinton gave Laura Bush a tour of the White House. The incoming-First Lady was dismayed at what she saw: Not only were carpets and furnishings fraying and in disrepair in the West Wing and public areas, the Oval Office was done in loud colors—red, blue, and gold! The East Wing was cut up into small offices and had exposed electrical conduits. Many of the furnishings looked dated.

Laura Bush noted how the Lincoln Bedroom looked worn out.

Laura was appalled at the way the Clintons left the White House and Hillary Clinton's gaudy, outdated taste in decorating, reveals the new book, LAURA BUSH: AN INTIMATE PORTRAIT.

The book, which will be published by DOUBLEDAY on Tuesday,
is the only book to be written about Laura Bush with White House cooperation.

Elsewhere in AN INTIMATE PORTRAIT: After NEWSWEEK ran a Periscope item claiming the U.S. military had flushed a Koran down a toilet, leading to rioting, Laura ordered: "I don't want NEWSWEEK around the house!"

Laura Bush became so disgusted with the media and their war against her husband that at one point, she told her public relations person Noelia Rodriguez she did not want to do any more media interviews. After about a month, she slowly resumed talking to the press.

A close friend of Laura's, Pamela Nelson, asks Laura how she's doing. Laura replies, "Well, it's the Kitty Kelly book and Dan Rather this week..."

Nancy Weiss, a Bush family intimate, told Kessler, "She torments herself by reading the WASHINGTON POST and the NEW YORK TIMES, " and added, "A Texas Monthly article (based on a book by a Washington Post reporter ) said she is a 'bad mom.' She handles it calmly but I can tell things like that do upset her."

According to a source close to the clintons who is an acquaintance of mine, hillary had the nasty habit of pilfering from the drapery fund. (See the text in graphic in post 220.) The endpoint of all this pilfering, of course, was her final (we hope) stash-laden exit.

Would not surprise me one bit, the woman believes she is owed and owed by everyone on this planet.

She has demonstrated time and again she will take whatever is her hearts desire, and will use anything and everything even "Jesus" to get what she desires.

Well Duhh, how many people did the toons rent it out to? Probably looked like a bad motel 6.

When I was in college, every liberal I knew lived in a self-made dump.

It was almost like a badge of honor with them.

What nonsense ! Unlike the most immediate former WH resident, our lovely first lady is always gracious and kind. It would surprise me greatly if she ever gives anyone in the previous administration a moments thought much less discuss them with some silly gossip. Moreover, saying Hillary kept a bad house and the West Wing was gaudy was apparent to everyone and Laura Bush is a smart, articulate woman who doesn't restate the obvious.

So I take it Laura took down the velvet Elvis and the dogs playing poker painting?

Also the talking Bass hanging on the wall and the toilet turned into a planter out front.

She kept such a sloppy house that it was over a year before she could find the Rose Law Firm Billing records.

When Carter was in the White House, the story was how dirty the Carters were, when the White House staff reported even cleaning up dirty tissues under the bed.

People need a good scolding. I'm getting tired seeing Bush being Bash like a rag doll.

Where's the decorum? I thought we treated Bill Clinton bad but we just made fun of him. The Bush Bashers are real malicious.

Time for Laura to bring out the big guns and let them have it....in a polite Southern way.

If you are ever in Corpus Christi it will be Bush (Busch) Beer but we will make up for high class VO Highballs with massive quantities and the requisite BBQ.
