GEORGE W. BUSH, VICTIM OF SEXISM?

Fox News Democrat Kirsten Powers is disgusted:
President Obama's silly, sexist defense of Susan Rice

Don't pick on the little lady.

Wednesday, President Obama bizarrely cast the U.N. Ambassador to the United Nations, Susan Rice, as some delicate flower the boys should stop picking on....

"If Sen. McCain and Sen. Graham and others want to go after somebody, they should go after me," Obama intoned....

Obviously caught up in his own silly yarn about meanie Senators and helpless U.N. Ambassadors, the President complained, "When they go after the U.N. ambassador apparently because they think she's an easy target, then they've got a problem with me."

Imagine George Bush saying that people criticized John Bolton because he was an "easy target." He wouldn't.
Well, maybe not. (Emphasis added.) But you know who would say something like that?
Laura Bush: George W. is 'an easy target'

Former first lady Laura Bush said she understands her husband "makes an easy target" for critics and chalked it up to the business of politics.

"We know what politics is like," Bush told ABC News in an interview.... "We know that, you know, people love to blame somebody else. That's just a fact of life in politics. ... I think George makes an easy target."
That was from last summer.

Hey, Kirsten -- is Laura's defense of her husband sexist? Would you say she thinks W. is "some delicate flower"?

Didn't W constantly defend Condalisa Rice?

How else can anyone explain how the worst feckin' National Security Advisor in the countries history, eventually ended up as SoS?

Anyone but W, or an equally incompetent Republican President, would have had her fired on the spot!
Oh yeah, never mind - SHE wasn't the only one who knew about that PDB about 'bin Laden determined to attack in US' - her boss, W, THE FECKIN' PRESIDENT, also knew!
On @$$hole, covering for the other - and then reciprocated, back and forth, for 7 years.
