Since my initial post the other day, the Facebook campaign to bring former first lady Laura Bush to Dallas’ gay Pride celebration in September has quite simply exploded. The FB group now has more than 600 members, and the effort has been featured by several media outlets including but not limited to The Advocate, SheWired.com and The Dallas Morning News. The Voice’s own Chance Browning has uploaded the above photo to the FB page, with the caption “A little preview of what Laura might look like.” (Chance appears to be devoting his vacation to the effort this week.) I left a message yesterday for Laura’s publicist to find out whether there’s any chance she’ll come, but I haven’t heard back. I’ve also sent her a message on Twitter, so keep your fingers crossed.

was this the Pride parade she attended in Kabul?
Talk about Shock & Awe
Why would anyone want Laura Bush to attend a Pride parade? The organizers have too much time on their hands apparently.
I’m happy to see she’s open minded! It’s good to know she’s a woman with strong and controversial opinions and doesn’t mind publicly going against her husband’s bigotry…I mean his beliefs. LOL
You may never know…she could become our greatest ally. Crazier things have happened. This could be the olive branch that starts it all.
That photo is of Jeff Gannon on his way into the White House to see Karl and George.
She is from Texas, she is an educator. I think she is a perfect choice.
