Mama Bush On The War Path

Steven Clemons from The Washington Note writes that Barbara Bush is cooking up a coup d'etat of her own in order to rid her son's administration of no less than the likes of Dick Cheney, Andy Card, and Karl Rove.

"The matriarch of the Bush clan is colder than North Pole ice right now to those around her son who she thinks have undermined him...Laura Bush's mother-in-law wants to do more than put coal in the stockings of the Vice President and the other top handlers of her son's White House... my source told me that Barbara was about to 'pull a Nancy Reagan' on these attendants" [Nancy having kicked out then Chief-of-Staff Donald Regan in 1987, although he was also implicated in the Iran-Contra affair] .
