Barbara Bush’s response:

Dear Marge,



How kind of you to write. I’m glad you spoke your mind; I foolishly didn’t know you had one.



I am looking at a picture of you, depicted on a plastic cup, with your blue hair filled with pink birds peeking out all over. Evidently, you and your charming family — Lisa, Homer, Bart and Maggie — are camping out. It is a nice family scene. Clearly you are setting a good example for the rest of the country.



Please forgive a loose tongue.



Warmly,



Barbara Bush



P.S. Homer looks like a handsome fella!
