Laura Bush smokes
I just read this. It seems surprising some how, doesn't it? It was in a story was about Obama, but I already knew he smokes so that wasn't nearly as interesting.
I goggled to check this when I read it - and I hadn't really any opinion on her either way previously, she didn't stand for election after all. But the more I read about her the more interesting she seems. They always say Bush won because he more than Kerry was the type of guy Americans would like to go for a beer with, but personally I'd prefer to buy Laura a pint.
I always liked Laura. I don't know why. Maybe I felt bad for her, knowing who she's married too. Heh.
ReplyDeleteFinding out she smokes is like finding out my grandma throws down glasses of Southern Comfort before bed. Heh.
Not bad or good, just more info I guess...
