She was a classless drunken cow.
May she RIP
Speak for yourself.
Notre père, qui êtes aux cieux!
Que votre nom soit sanctificié. Que votre règne vienne.
Que votre volonté soit faite, sur la terre comme au ciel.
Donnez-nous aujourd'hui notre poindre ce jour.
Pardonnez-nous nos offenses, comme nous pardonnons aussi a ceux, qui nous ont offensés,
et ne nous soumetez pas à la tentation, mais délivrez-nous du mal.
Car c'est à toi qu'appartiènne, le régne, la puissance et la gloire, pour les siècles des siècles.
Amen.
Je vous salue, Marie, pleine de grâces,
le Seigneur est avec vous, vous êtes bénie entre toutes les femmes,
et Jésus le fruit de vos entrailles est béni.
Sainte Marie, Mère de Dieu, priez pour nous pauvres pécheurs,
maintenant, et à l'heure de notre mort. Ainsi-soit-il.
Garde la Foi, mes amis! Nous nous sommes les sauveurs de la République! Maintenant et Toujours!
(Keep the Faith, my friends! We are the saviors of the Republic! Now and Forever!)

Gerald Ford stepped up to hold down the fort for the Republic when the GOP was at a low ebb. He told us he was a Ford, not a Lincoln.
His wife, God rest her soul, attempted to make some amends for her weakness.
I cannot claim any greater favor before my God.
Time to close this thread.
The Clintons are finally sleeping together!
Funny thing about the whingers complaining that conservatives have no grace - this thread is full of nothing but a fine example of the grace, and graciousness, of conservatives, particularly in the face of what is most clearly a troll’s inflammatory comment.
I went to her daughter [Susan’s] Prom - held in the East Room of the WH.
Prez Ford & Betty showed up - and she asked me to dance with her and I did. She was a hoot! Definitely was not shy about having fun. But, as I know now, it may have been the pills ...
A few years later, a girl I worked with got married and had her reception at Chevy Chase Country Club. Apparently, her father was politically connected and Prez Ford [and Betty] were invited. She remembered me and asked me to dance again.
She was a nice lady ...
Now reading about Ford's death and the things she supported, I realize it is little wonder that our country has continued to go downhill. She supported ABORTION and everyone on here seems to believe that should be overlooked. Was Ted Kennedy's death held in such reverence? I don't think so... If Betty Ford stood for what I have read this evening, she was a POS. FWIW here's my comment from the other BF thread:
“Well now Im thoroughly disgusted. If true, she was a POS wrapped in fine linen. So I wonder, when approaching the Creator of the Universe, if saying I did all these good things...oh btw, I was for butchering babies because, well you know Lord, babies can be such a barrier for women will still open the door to paradise...”
Sickening...
RIP
May she be judged for her strengths and not her weaknesses.
The institute that bears her name, while pricey, is excellent.
I hardly think my comments warranted getting them removed but so be it. You still have the drunken cow remark left on the forum and hinkley’s remark as well.
Speaking the truth here now gets a freeper’s comments removed?
Pro-abortion.
Betty Ford’s public personna was the complete opposite of Pat Nixon (called “Plastic Pat” back in the day).
Her outspoken nature was shocking to many (parents & grandparents). I was 20 and found it quite refreshing.
May she rest in peace.
In her way, she affected as many lives as her husband. A great story of recovery and endurance. RIP, pretty lady, sober lady, healer lady, First Lady.
(linked article mentions the Fords as embracing pop culture and throwing WH parties with celebrities)
Well what do you know? I was sure that the Obamas were the first to do this.
Oh, and incidentally Betty Ford was born the same day as my great aunt (April 8, 1918)
