Barbara Bush
But why should we hear about body bags and deaths, and how many, what day it's gonna happen, and how many this or what do you suppose? Or, I mean, it's not relevant. So, why should I waste my beautiful mind on something like that?
Barbara Bush
I hate abortions, but just could not make that choice for someone else.
Barbara Bush
The First Lady is going to be criticized no matter what she does.
Barbara Bush
Why be afraid of what people will say? Those who care about you will say, Good luck! and those who care only about themselves will never say anything worth listening to anyway.
