Press Secretary Sarah Sanders fired both barrels at former first lady Laura Bush during Monday’s White House press briefing. Sanders was asked about an op-ed Bush wrote for the far-left Washington Post, where she compared the necessary and moral separation of migrant children from their illegal alien parents to the Japanese American internment camps built by Democrat president and icon Franklin Roosevelt. Sanders held nothing back in pointing out Bush’s hypocrisy. And, frankly, this law was actually signed into effect in 2008 under her husband’s leadership, not under this administration,” she added. “We’re not the one’s responsible for creating this problem; we’ve inherited it. But we’re actually the first administration stepping up and trying to fix it.”

Most times I wouldn't say this (you think) but, that there is a bitch slap. Mike Drop for Sarah.

[McGavin999]

Yep, and Laura Bush deserved it.

[TigersEye]

And the further hypocrisy of being pro-choice aka in favor of allowing women to murder their own offspring.

F Laura Bush.

[bgill]

Laura Bush would rather children be aborted.

[V K Lee]

L. Bush deserves Sarah’s treatment.

Way to go Sarah!
Give ‘em another punch.
WTP luv U!

[forgotten man]

Sarah did not slap Laura Bush hard enough if you ask me.

[plain talk]

And, frankly, this law was actually signed into effect in 2008 under her husband’s leadership, not under this administration,” she added

Ouch. Laura I don't like your politics but you are a nice, decent lady. Since you don't know that your own husband is partially responsible for this mess you might want to STFU.

[Jim Scott]

I always consider Laura Bush as a gracious First Lady but her coming out of retirement to attack the Trump administration over this issue that is being distorted and then hammered by the leftmedia is a huge disappointment.

That Sarah Sanders called Laura Bush out on her hypocrisy and made it clear this procedure was signed into law by Laura Bush’s husband and that congrees could remedy it but has not, was the exact right response; truthful and pointed.

I sincerely hope Sarah Sanders remains Trump’s Press Secretary for many more years. She is doing an excellent job under very hostile conditions.

Considering the media and liberals have always downplayed and criticized everything the Bushes did and do, why should they think this is different?

[Midwesterner53]

Mrs Bush was the only real lady to live in the White House from 1993 to 2017. Please don’t ruin that belief Mrs Bush.

[Dagnabitt]

Laura should help her stuttering idiot husband with his finger-painting and leave the open-borders advocacy to others.

[petitfour]

Now W will have to stumble out and defend Laura and say that the policy does not require the separation of children from their parents. He will neglect to say that if you do not separate the families, the families do not show up for their hearings and that they disappear into our country for years sucking up resources that were meant for American children in American schools.

I love children. I take care of all the children placed in my care. But some of them should not be in this country nor should their parents. I’m surprised Common Core advocates have not realized that some of the failure of CC is due to the millions of foreign children admitted to American schools causing teachers to have to slow down instruction so the least common denominator can follow along. American students are held back in order for nonEnglish speakers to attempt to comprehend. It is wrong!!!!!!!!!!!!

[dfwgator]

W separated many from their parents with his stupid war.

[petitfour]

That is unacceptable and a ridiculous thing to say.

[minnesota_bound]

Plenty of room on the Bush’s ranch for these “migrants”.

[Magnum44]

[dfwgator]

That is unacceptable and a ridiculous thing to say.

Yep, Laura never should have said it.

[Pravious]

That is unacceptable and a ridiculous thing to say.

Why? The left has made such accusations perfectly acceptable. Haven’t you read this week’s politically correct handout?

[jospehm20]

Mrs. Bush said nothing about these children for the entire 8 years of Odumbo’s administration. She could not care less about them. She simply hates President Trump because he is exposing her family as being a bunch of not very smart, lying, globalist azzholes. I am glad Sarah Sanders pointed out the fact that Laura Bush’s husband was deeply involved in causing this mess. Laura Bush should have a nice, hot cup of STFU.
