Laura Slams Critics of Bush’s 9/11 classroom actions
You have to love Laura Bush. She’s not a loose cannon like Teresa, but neither does she let things sit when she feels personal attacks on her husband are getting out of hand. In this interview with the New York Post, she opined about the Kerry camp’s criticism of the President continuing to read to children after he learned of the 9/11 attacks:
"I think that's a ridiculous allegation by John Kerry — it's absurd," Mrs. Bush told The Post. "And I think what my husband did was perfectly appropriate. I think it was the right thing to do in front of the children."
"I think it was the right thing to do in front of the press that were there. And while he was there for those seven short minutes, his staff was getting more information.
"They didn't have any more information than what [chief of staff] Andy Card had told him when he came into the room."
You go, girl!
