Laura Bush “I could never have imagined” 2004 Campaign’s Gay Marriage “Path.”
Andrew Sullivan calls former first lady Laura Bush, “the most decent person in the White House for eight long years.”
“In 2004 the social question that animated the campaign was gay marriage. Before the election season had unfolded, I had talked to George about not making gay marriage a significant issue. We have, I reminded him, a number of close friends who are gay or whose children are gay. But at that moment I could never have imagined what path this issue would take and where it would lead.”
You know my personal opinion on the “could never have imagined” saying. When someone says “no one could have imagined,” someone already has.
Apparently, before the 2004 elections, Mrs. Bush had never met Karl Rove.
