I've seen former first lady Barbara Bush on TV with her statement about Sarah Palin, saying she should stay in Alaska. Sarah Palin is an airhead. ... She couldn't finish her job in Alaska and certainly is not qualified for the presidency. Listen to her. She doesn't say anything.
I find it appalling that our children cannot go to Tri-County Mall after 4 p.m. on the weekends. I was at Tri-County Mall recently. I saw guards walk into the stores and tell children who were shopping that they needed to leave because they did not have a parent with them. These kids were doing nothing except Christmas shopping. Then, I saw all the guards lined up at the doors, turning people away — young kids — as they tried to enter because they did not have a parent with them. ... Take your business to Bridgewater Falls where our children appear to be welcome.
