At 85, Barbara Bush is still as fiesty as ever.

The always outspoken former first lady doesn't appear to think much of Sarah Palin Presidential aspirations, saying the former Alaska governor should stay in her home state. (Ouch!)

In an interview with CNN's Larry King scheduled to air Monday, Mrs. Bush says she sat next to Palin once and "thought she was beautiful."

Mrs. Bush also told King that Palin seems "very happy in Alaska", but then added, "I hope she'll stay there."

In an excerpt provided by CNN, both Mr. and Mrs. Bush complimented their son, former President George W. Bush, on the success of his recent memoir, Decision Points.

The former president says his son has "done a good job selling the darn thing."

I was shocked by both the lucidity of her statement and the fact that I wholeheartedly agree with her. It'd be like electing Kate Gosselin president - completely laughable but so not funny!!!!

If it came down to Sarah Palin or Kate Gosselin for President, my vote is with Kate G. I'm willing to bet Kate Gosselin can find Europe on a map. I don't even know if Sarah Palin as even heard of Europe much less find it on a map
