Laura Bush: Good Genes or Good Docs?!

Some Americans would like to erase the last eight years -- and it appears First Lady Laura Lane Welch Bush already has!

Laura Bush

Here's 54-year-old Laura (left) back at the beginning of her husband's presidency in 2001 -- and the 62-year-old refreshed version (right) two weeks ago.

Seems like everybody is ready for change.

1. I don't think it's a matter of genes or surgery, just a professional (and somewhat overdone) make-up job in the later picture.

2. Also can be better facial creams or just better photoshop....

3. Definitely just a case of heavy makeup and better lighting in the 2nd picture. However, she has aged pretty well over the last 8 years.

4. I agree #1, looks like her cheeks have filled out a bit. not as thin. New hair and eyebrow color. Better make-up.

The only professional here is make-up and hair. She looks great at 62.

5. In one picture she has a broad smile, but not in the other. For the sake of fairness in this poll, BOTH pictures should either show Mrs. Bush with a smile or no smile. No matter her age... I think she looks wonderful. Anyone who says differently should have to post their pics for comparisons

6. She looks pretty darn natural to me. It's nice to see someone let herself age while still taking care of herself. She's just got more flattering makeup/lighting in the later pic. What's the deal with all the age-bashing at TMZ? Surely you can think of some other ''fun'' types of posts to do rather than these kinds of things.

8. You can bet if she had surgery that taxpayer probably footed the bill!

11. What a lovely and classy lady! We have loved our First Lady. She wa such a refreshing change from the clinton hag. Heaven help us as the obamabeast who is such a racist infests our White House. God Bless Laura Bush and the wonderful example she has set as First Lady. She will never be matched and very much missed.

12. Saw her in person. She really looks great...work or no work.

13. Of course she had work done. What do you think those "vacations" are for? She has had a new tips and tucks.

14. Her face is scrunched up in a smile in the first picture! of course her eyes and mouch have more wrinkles in the first pic! You cannot tell in this pic if shes had work done or not b/c she has two different facial expressions! Many people in a real honest smile wrinkle up!

15. Laura Bush has got alot of class . I feel sorry for her after what her husband and his administration did to our country. She is so caring and sweet. I don't know how George Bush got so luckey with her. He is going to go down as the worst President ever in our history books. So very sad for our great country. I wish her the best.
