Rewriting History

You know what I enjoy the most in the morning? Giving the mutts their vitamins with cream cheese and dropping a bit of cream cheese on their noses, then, they lick each other, and almost look normal! OK, ok, they are normal, they are just feisty between them!

I got so busy working on the sign that the mutts and I will hold at the intersection of streets “Will work for a roof above our heads!” that I almost forgot to write about Laura Bush!

Just saying her name makes me sigh…. Can’t they just go away, pleaaaase! No, I certainly won’t buy her book but I read excerpts of it, and it just hit me: besides trying to rewrite History, and wanted to show another George than the one she is stuck with, she talks about her car accident at 17 when she killed another 17 year old boy. I just couldn’t believe it when I read it. I mean if you write about something as traumatic, can’t you at least be honest about it! A 17 year old died because she went through a stop sign. PERIOD! And now at 60 something, can’t she take RESPONSIBILITY for what she did? I know it’s not a word that the Bushes seem to know, but still! If she goes public at her age, NOW, about it, do not blame it on the dark road, or on the fact she was driving a big car, or for Zeus’ sake on the fact that the boy had a very dangerous car. Are you kidding me? Maybe she should have sued the boy’s family for it! Why can’t she just say just a few words like: I ran a stop sign and killed a boy. End of the story. It would be a much better way to show to the youngest generations that it happens – I am not sure that 17 year old imagine they can get killed or kill someone – and that it’s a trauma for the rest of the life of the surviving one. That would be a good thing to write, not the crap she hides behind.

Did she realize what a pitiful character she shows in that book? Saying that she never contacted the parents of the dead boy (it’s never too late, maybe it is now though), or that she lost her faith in God (another good one! Did she think she was Carrie Underwood asking God to take the wheel, and HE did not do it?” Pitiful!) That’s what it is, and I would have hoped that they knew when to stop! Are we supposed to be the Dr. Phil of the Bushes and we are not done yet! George is coming with his own thing, and let me tell you, I do not want to know what’s going to be in it. I don’t even want to mention that she thought that the US delegation was poisoned in Germany…

There was another book written by a First Lady, Danielle Mitterrand. Don’t trust her look, she is the mousey type a bit like Laura Bush, but the comparison stops right there! She is an incredible woman with a great sense of humor who did not hide (but hey this is France!) that after marrying Francois Mitterrand for love, and being miserable since he started cheating on her right away, she took a lover too at the suggestion of her sister who couldn’t take it that she was staying crying night after night.

I would have loved to be a tiny mouse the day Mitterrand came home early to find his wife ready to leave. He was so disappointed not to be able to spend that special evening with her, and asked her where she was going. “A night out with my lover, see you later!”). No, Mitterrand did not go to the French Dr. Phil (am not sure he exists anyway!), he just took the blow! Years later, when she become the First Lady of France, she had to let go of her lover at the instance of her husband, but for Francois, like many powerful people, rules don’t apply to them, so he went on with his affairs, fathered a child with the last companion he had, and everyone was there at the cemetery when he died! This is the French way of Life!

This part is just a tiny one of the book who showed her as a “little girl who got wrinkles but did not forget her dreams”, and has a strong personality. She mentioned at one point that she did not lose her identity when she married Francois. He never called her his wife. Her being was hers not who fathered her or whom she married. It is just called Respect.

Iconoclastically yours,

Dominique
