One Bush isn’t wedded to old ways

Her husband has been reluctant to toss out the old in favor of the new, but first lady Laura Bush has shown a penchant for change lately. In 2005, she traveled without her husband to such hot spots as Afghanistan, the West Bank, Rwanda and Tanzania. According to The Wall Street Journal, she also has a new hairstylist; a trendier, less-Texas wardrobe; and a staff newly dominated by Beltway veterans. And she reportedly had a hand in ousting longtime White House head chef Walter Scheib, who was said by one of her staffers to have displayed a “level of arrogance” in repeatedly making dishes that the Bushes disliked, such as scallops.

    She’s got more guts than he does. She actually GOES to a war zone.

    Laura Bush for president. I’d vote for her before I’d vote for Hillary.
