Bush Women Come out for Liberal Causes!
http://news.yahoo.com/s/ynews/ynews_pl2570
Barbara Bush for health care for all and even reportedly said she was glad that the health care bill dubbed "Obamacare" passed.
Quote:
"Why do, basically, people with money have good health care and why do people who live on lower salaries not have good health care?" she said. "Health should be a right for everyone." She is president of the Global Health Corps, an organization that champions global health equity.
No Republican in Congress voted for Obama's health care legislation.
Barbara Bush's comments come just weeks after her mother, former First Lady Laura Bush, professed views that departed sharply from the Republican majority opinion. During a Fox News interview, Laura Bush was asked to comment on Elena Kagan's nomination to the Supreme Court.

"I think it's great," she responded. "I'm really glad that there will be three [women] if she's confirmed. I like to have women on the Supreme Court." And in an interview with CNN's Larry King last month, she came out in favor of abortion rights and gay marriage.
