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.

The Bush family are not even from Texas for cryin out loud.
Transplants from the Northeast.
They brought their NE mentality with’em.
Geez, just retire already.
She has turned out to be a huge disappointment to me.
Yeah, I know, they just moved south to be closer to the Mexicans.
I agree with the get lost already, I know I am sick and tired of all the Bushes.
Will all the lonely old maids who spend 8 years on FR cooing over this idiot woman’s latest outfit, hairdo, etc... now all have to return their “toasters”?
I don’t know what Ronald Reagan’s IQ was . . but he was an amazing communicator and a keen judge of character . . his Cabinet picks were impeccable.
Bush failed on both fronts . . look at some of the turkeys Bush appointed to important positions like Hank Paulson and Paul Bremer, Harriet Myers, Karen Hughes, Rumsfeld, etc.
Bush gave us Obama . . that’s all you really need to know.
None of you obviously LISTENED to what she was saying!
Fr who just react knee jerk...and of course, the regular Bush Bashing crowd.
I can’t wait....in about 4 years you will all be writing the SAME ‘oh so dissapointed” about Palin...
the hysterical crowd...” I love them!”...”No, I hate them now”...”Oh THIS is the one!”.....”NO, she’s an idiot.”
I just love to watch the vitriol now on a conservative lady...This thrashing beats anything the Daily Kos could do.
It might help if you ACTUALLY listened to the whole interview!ha...
Stupid woman....
It's a shame, though, that disagreeing with the majority on Sarah Palin and whether or not she'd make a good president automatically gets the troll label slapped on.
I had a feeling about the Bush's but since he was the better of the other choices we had for President I never said much, but they were never truly conservative and more moderate than people think. And now with Laura coming out and sticking her foot in her mouth, people can finally see what others saw before. They were no where near the caliber of President Ronald Reagan.
It's been raining up here in Indiana the last couple of days. I hope you soaked in many rays today.
Cheers!
Boy, does that sound familiar or what?!
I can assume she and George have opened their property for illegals to gather?
>>Bush gave us Obama . . thats all you really need to know.<<
Bull. The MSM and the stupid American Sheeple gave us Obama.
Read here for a while, you’ll learn the truth.
Trust me, when you’ve been a FReeper for more than a couple months you’ll learn what you’ve been spoon fed by the press.
Pat wasn’t an alcoholic, was she?
I’m sorry to hear that Laura, who touts literacy can’t read either.
Her husband is a liberal that ushered in the current regime, so why is it a surprise she is one too?
And dose it really matter what a former first lady has to say anyway?
I’m more concerned with the power hungry commie mommie we have now.
I liked her better when she didn’t voice her opinion on subjects of which she was not educated.
Laura Bush is a pro-choicer and legal marriage for gays. It makes me wonder about Bush.
Depends which issue you’re talking about, but my point is that the Left has used Bush Derangement Syndrome to their benefit, most notably in 2008, and when we think it’s OK to bash him just because he’s no longer the president, we are falling right into one of their traps. There’s no need for it. We are just aiding them. You have not been signed up here very long, but the Bush bashing did not start in earnest on this thread until after Obama was elected. It is still very much to our detriment to do this and helps the Democrats in their propagqnda war.
Thanks for acknowledging my IQ, although I am not quite in the genius range.
Exactly.
