George Bush's Memoirs published
Can you really see Barbara Bush saying "Doc, I've just suffered a miscarriage, and during this most devastating emotional time in my life I'd like you to take the miscarried fetus and pop it in a jar, so I can take it home and show my kid"? I mean, seriously? Who does that?!
WHAT!?!The Guardian wrote:In a separate interview to publicise the book, Bush traces his opposition to abortion back to his teenage years when his mother had a miscarriage, kept the foetus in a jar, and showed it to her son.
"She said to her teenage kid: here's the foetus," Bush told NBC. "There's no question that affected me, a philosophy that we should respect life … There was a human life, a little brother or sister."
Bush said that the purpose of telling the story "wasn't to try show the evolution of a pro-life point of view".
"It was really to show how my mom and I developed a relationship."
