""I said to him the other day, 'George, if you really want to end tyranny in this world, you're going to have to stay up later,"' Laura Bush said."

HA! Now that is funny!

[ProudVet77]

Can you imagine any other president being secure enough in his own skin to put up with a public ribbing like that?

[Northern Yankee]

A great evening.

Laura stole the show.

Cedric had a line about the country is ready for a female president. He should have turned to the First Couple at that moment and said, "Laura, you best get rolling."

It would have bought the house down.

Still trying to figure out why Richard Gere, and Fonda were there.

If an Ex-Presidents wife ever runs for President it should be Laura Bush.

[DTogo]

Now to spoil everyone's fun here: imagine a President Kerry with Mama T taking the microphone... *shudder*

[nuconvert]

The First Lady was great.
I believe the reporter of this story has made a slight error. If my ears heard correctly, Cedric the Entertainer referred to Condi Rice's 2 selves as Connie & DeLeeza. That was a funny bit and I've never seen Condi laugh that much.

"Nine o'clock and Mr. Excitement here is in bed, and I am watching 'Desperate Housewives' -- with Lynne Cheney. Ladies and gentlemen, I am a desperate housewife."

I was trying to understand where this "desperate housewife" monologue headed after the above quote.

I did not see the White House correspondents annual dinner.

Can anyone who watched confirm the quote below came from Laura Bush at White House correspondents annual dinner? If someone made this up, I would like to see it exposed as a fabrication.

"I am married to the President of the United States and here is our typical evening. Nine o'clock, Mr. Excitement here is sound asleep, and I am watching Desperate Housewives. With Lynne Cheney. Ladies and gentleman, I am a desperate housewife. I mean if those women on that show think they're desperate, they ought to be with George. One night after George went to bed, Lynne Cheney, Condi Rice, Karen Hughes and I went to Chippendales....I won't tell you what happened, but Lynne's Secret Service code name is now Dollar Bill."

[tomahawk]

I thought her comments at the dinner were disgusting.

[joyful1]

I hate to constantly be the wet blanket...but I feel the curtain is going down, as the fiddler keeps playing.

clearly, sadly, (I am not a Christian) I feel like the end times are near for this great nation...

First lady Laura Bush (L) interrupts President George W. Bush as he was about to tell an old joke at the White House Correspondents' Association Dinner at the Washington Hilton, April 30, 2005. Mrs. Bush proceeded to roast the president, and got big laughs when she referred to her early-to-bed husband as 'Mr. Excitement' and called herself a 'desperate housewife.' REUTERS/Jonathan Ernst

[TheForceOfOne]

We have a wonderful first lady, just imagine the drunken slob we might have been stuck with! cold chills run through me at the thought.

[iconoclast]

Cedric the Entertainer took the stage, even though he conceded that "I thought I could follow the president. The first lady is something different."

If she gets any cuter, George is gonna have to keep her locked up!

Laura in 2008!

[mountainfolk]

Whats not to love about Laura Bush---My husband and I laughed at her delivery and wondered who wrote the dialog, it was very entertaining. I think that the final lines Laura spoke were her own and they were supportive of her husband, children, the Bush family, and her marriage. No doubt about her sincerity and commitment to her husband. Aren't we Americans lucky!!

"I was a librarian that spent 12 hours a day in the library. Yet somehow I met George."

I don't get it.

[an italian]

Guys... I adore they two!!! George and Laura are really sweet together!!! They are... How can I say? They are... Therapeutic!! They are a perfect example of true love, of people who really love each others... And Laura is really smart and nice!!!!

ITALY LOVES YOUR FIRST COUPLE, GUYS!!!

[Johnny Allright]

Yeah I saw it it was very funny but what the hell was Jane Fonda doing there.

Frankly, I thought the jokes stank. These reminded me of the ones that the daughters told at the Republican convention. It's undermining. He deserves better treatment than that and even if those things are said at home in jest, they deserve to stay private.

They are only giving the likes of Bill Maher and company food for monologues. Even putting herself and other female role models in a league with the likes of Desperate Housewives is demeaning.

Laura is an absolutely lovely First Lady. He's a real man of depth and sincere confidence. She can deliver it and he can take it--but their spontaneous humor is better than anything their jokemeisters came up with.

[The Incredible One]

Good grief..I fell over laughing. Laura Bush - 2008..
