I'm always going against the grain.
I was a card carrying Republican in my youth. Now, I'm a liberal snowflake but with an understanding of politics that I'm personally comfortable with. I've worked, in decades past, in that world.
Regardless of politics, I adored Barbara Bush. This might sound crazy but I LOVED her pearls (and her boxy suits!) and when I got into the professional sector, the first thing that I did was purchase some pearls. Alright, FAKE pearls but pearls!!!
When entering into the demimonde, pearls were an important feature with my first website!!!
I feel that often, people tend to insult strong women and she was a strong female. Valued family, etc. Strong, vocal, supportive of her children and husband ... what's not to like?
Really don't understand why some folks would say such ugly things about the woman. She dedicated her life to her family and also, in a fashion, politics. Much like Hillary has done.
Must have been a great experience to meet the woman!!! Very cool.
Nice topic!!!
Hugs,
Elisabeth
