I just heard a bit of Bush's comments this morning, and when I heard him say the cowgirl thing, it seemed to me that it would have been better -- more respectful of her stature -- to have dwelled on her current position rather than where she started. I'm not saying it was offensive to me, I'm just saying the focus could have been left on what she's done for the last 24 years.
