I missed Laura Bush on Leno, but I hear it was awful. This article has a synopsis with an awesome "Laura Bush in the Specail Olympics" pic. Here's one guy's take on it:

Laura Bush on Leno
Laura Bush was on The Tonight Show last night and I really wish I had a copy of the transcript of this show. It was mindboggling. I don't know if Laura was trying to endear Georgie Boy to America but it came off as creepy and uncomfortable.

At one point Laura recalled a story when, after she had been warned by Barbara Bush never to criticize George's speeches, (hmm I wonder why) she finally did. She said as they pulled into their home, George asked her to be honest about how his speech went and she told him not too good. He then "ran the car into the garage door".

Say what? There was no explanation as to whether or not it was an accident or whether he just was so fucking pissed that anyone criticized him that he drove into the garage door. Nothing, just, "he drove us into the garage door". You'd think you might want to clarify something like that.

Also, I think another incredibly revealing part of the interview was when Laura said, "the purpose of political campaigns are to make the other guy look as bad as you can." Well Laura, I hate to break it to you but there's a large portion of society and still a few politicians that believe a political campaign should be about issues, ideals and platforms. Thanks though for summing up what your husband's campaing is about, not the issues, just about "making the other guy [Kerry] look as bad as possible".
