Ah, the tolerance! The always inane Joan Walsh weighed in, of course.
Laura Bush makes my point about her lack of political courage, asks to remove name from marriage equality ad: http://t.co/xxO9fSQuxY

According to Ms. Walsh, Bush and Cheney (also highlighted in the ad in support of same-sex marriage) aren’t brave, you see. Unlike President Obama and his oh-so-courageous ever-evolving stance, timed to coincide with campaign fundraising. Now that is a gutsy call!
CNN jumps in, too.
Laura Bush: Take me out of pro-gay marriage ad – http://t.co/SVQ2YITEyZ

Evil Laura Bush pulled out of an ad in support of gay marriage. Oh, the horror! Except that, you know, she was never asked for permission to be included in the ad.

Funny how that works, huh?
More from ABC News:
The ad, created by a group called Respect for Marriage Coalition, includes a statement Bush made during an interview with CNN’s “Larry King Live” in 2010 in which she talked about her memoir, “Spoken from the Heart.”
When couples are committed to each other and love each other, then they ought to have the same sort of rights that everyone has,” she told King three years ago.
The former first lady’s office told the Dallas Morning News that Bush had not given her consent to be part of the ad, and had asked that she be removed from it.
Further, perhaps she doesn’t want to be associated with a group with whom she may not agree?

But, truth and reality doesn’t stop hate-filled liberals. Another day, another excuse to show their true and misogynist colors.

Turns out Laura Bush is as shallow as her husband. The clue was the porcelain mask with the permanent Stepford wife smile.

@TheBrandonShire Laura Bush is a Xanax-addled, pie-eyed douchebag. Who gives a fuck what she says or wants? #RWNJs #p2 #p21
