Check this, from Mrs. Bush's interview on ThisWeek:

Anyone remember what we did after the Civil War?

I was also glad to note the president has company when he sits in his bubble.

Lynching is so unladylike.

The last time I checked the Civil War was still going on.

The fact that Laura Bush is a librarian has nothing to do with her feeble grasp of history, P6. Don't smear librarians. They might not teach history, but they certainly know the history of this nation when it comes to official censorship, secrecy, misinformation, and disinformation, and have fought hard to make "freedom of information" a reality despite opposition from the government and sundry anti-intellectual cults.
