Laura Bush opposes Arizona law, citing her Irish ancestors

Former First Lady Laura Bush has come out against the Arizona immigration law, pointing to the discrimination that her own Irish ancestors, named Welch, faced in their time.

In an interview with Fox News, Bush said the new law merely showed an upsurge in prejudice similar to what her Irish ancestors faced.

Fact is, people who are offended by the Arizona law are mostly ignorant/undereducated.

Some of the same people who voted for the current Admin and abide to his every word.

According to Laura’s new best friend, Woof Blitzed remarked that her book was #1 on the NYT best seller list.

Dear Laura Dimwit Closet Liberal Bush:

How many Irish swam the Atlantic to sneak across the border? Talk about your "wetbacks." Note also the prevalence of the "No Irish need apply" signs compared to the se habla Español littering the states today.

Cheers!

Laura Bush is not the sharpest knife in the drawer.

She's not the sharpest bowling ball on the rackTM, either.

Cheers!

I have greater respect for Dubya. Jihadists on one side and his left wing wife on the other.

Small bit of sarcasm here, but not totally sarcastic.

Just got to love the “conservative” Bush’s. Now we get to watch Laura Bush rip conservatives a new one everyday.

Former First Lady Laura Bush has come out against the Arizona immigration law

I saw her in an interview with Chris Wallace and she was FOR the law, so maybe Fox Irish Central has had 1 pint too many?

HUH

Ever done the fighting for someone else, I have and we all thought it would be nice if they could send their family too.

Thanks for posting her comments. No denying them now.

She has a way of trying to be on both sides of an issue.

Blech.

When I criticized her for being pro choice and pro Elena Kagen a certain thread nanny was ready to hang me for my disloyalty to dear dear Laura.

Waiting for an apology.

Style over substance is might dangerous.

I had hoped some people would have had more intellectual honesty.

I don’t think she’s the real Laura Bush. I think aliens abducted the real First Lady and replaced her with a mentally challenged clone...

The Bushes will be immigrants if and when they ever have to take up residency in their 100,000 acre Paraguayan estate.

Did her ancestors come here illegally?

Because mind did not. And the story we were always told was that there was one distant relative who did come here illegally, through Canada, and was sent back. Which everyone thought she well deserved.

well she’s pro
homosexual agenda
pro abortion
pro Kagen
pro harriet M.
last two is because she wants to see women on the court , maybe she should ignore the sex and get the best person and those tow are hardly the best people
pro illegal now

The Bushs do not live in the real world of the blue collar worker, they have no clue about standing in line and waiting for the teller to not speak any English, they have no clue about being robbed or mugged or even having to watch out the window while a gang walks by your house

This is something you and most of the yahoos on this thread will not give him credit for. He turned things around on the border

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Huh? How in God's name do you come to that conclusion? Illegals poured in day after day under Bush and that is why WE HAVE 20 MILLION ILLEGALS HERE NOW!
