Zonkie, Mary Matalin's interview in 2000 was the last
time that I could stand her. Here's some of why :
....................................................
Tell us the story of the first time you met George Bush, your first impression.
The first time I met the entire Bush family was right after the 1980 election. Then vice-president Bush--this is unheard-of--invited the minions, the little worker bees from the Republican National Committee, to his residence, and his whole family were there, and it was there that we met all those wonderful children. They were just a great family. It's very familial, and wonderful, and a good thing to do, and the kids were a lot of fun.
What George W. was then is what George W. is now. He's very gregarious, outgoing, extroverted, makes people feel comfortable; he's irreverent, he's funny. He's just fun to be around, he just makes people feel good--you just want to hang out with him. (lots more gushing praise follows:) .........................................
