No Beating Around the Bush on the "Today" Show

First Lady Laura Bush, flush from a ribald performance at a White House Press Club dinner Saturday night, told "Today" show host Katie Couric this morning that she received "a good rogering" the night of the speech.

Couric, visibly embarrassed at the double entendre, hastily attempted to change the subject, but not before Bush continued, "Usually I have to beat my own path to that door."

The First Lady's racy dinner talk was widely viewed as an attempt by the Bush White House to polish its image as the President pushes for changes to Social Security against sagging popular support.

Later in the interview, Bush made a reference to brazilian waxing and characterized herself as a "desperate housewife who was once a desperate librarian."

Truely a lady and a woman. As a father of two daughters I am glad there is such a shining example in our first lady. It is also good to to know the leader of the free world knows how to give it to her proper.
