First-daughter Jenna Bush has tongues wagging -- and it started with her own.
President Bush's twin daughters Jenna and Barbara are campaigning with their father. Yesterday, during a stop in St. Louis, Jenna Bush stuck her tongue out at the media. She was sitting in the back seat of the presidential limo next to her father. The 22-year-old graduate of the University of Texas at Austin, started smiling through the window at reporters and photographers and that is when she stuck out her tongue and began to laugh. Before their first campaign swing with dad, first lady Laura Bush says she told her daughters to stand up straight and keep their hair out of their eyes. But Mrs. Bush apparently skipped the tongue thing.

LOL My thoughts exactly!
"Chelsea was the center of a minor media hoax: a bogus rock recording of "Chelsea Clinton" taking swipes at Tipper Gore, Boris Yeltsin and Paula Jones. The recording was written up by several news outlets"
Limbaugh mocked a 13-year-old Chelsea Clinton as "the White House dog"?

How easily we forget eh!
I don't recall bashing Clinton or this having anything to do with Clinton, but if you want to bring him in it, great. I never cared for all the partisan crap that happened, but I do think that if Clinton chose to "get himself sucked" as you call it in the oval office with a White House intern, that is a pretty public matter that should be dealt with as such. If he had simply said that he had and left it at that, he wouldn't have had to face an impeachment hearing. If he had chosen to get his kicks somewhere other than the White House, then he could have said that it was a personal matter and simply dealt with the morality issue. But when he choose to lie under oath, he make it a lot bigger matter than it could have been. Just ask Martha Stewart, only she actually has to go to jail for her lies.
If Jenna Bush or Condoleeza Rice were giving BJs in the Oval Office, I see where that would be a problem!! The ever so handy "they" don't seem to be the only ones doing a little partisan attacking now do they. If there is so much of a conspiracy, then by all means, write your senator and try and get a formal investigation started.
It is funny how people can be so defensive of Bush's daughter for something she did, but don't have a problem with the media attacking chelsea whose behaviour has been very exemplary. How come nobody has a problem with vile personal attacks against democrats wives. I don't recall much dirt being directed towards mrs.bush (who I happen to like by the way) by any of the democratic candidtates or democrat support groups on the same scale as towards kerrys wife. she has been accused of supporting radical leftwing groups.
This site printed a story about her that is shown to be false.

Teresa is attacked for owing lots of money and huge assets, yet cheney earned 36 million one year and has investments, shares and assets.
what is really sickening is all this hypocracy, whining on about how poor bush girl who sticks her tongue out is a target of ridicule, but hey it seems perfectly acceptable to demonize the wives of democrats.
Did I ever say that what the media did to Chelsea Clinton was right, or that I thought she needed to have her clothes, her looks or anything else about her under a microscope, but not the Bush girls? Go back and look, but you won't find it. So your point there is moot.
I do think it's absurd that these kids (meaning all children who get dragged into the White House spotlight with their presidential parents) are expected to be the pinnacle poster children for "the perfect kids". Jenna Bush stuck her tongue out at the reporters. Big deal. Most of us (us being general) are not the picture of propriety and good manners at 22. That is the time when you're still *learning* how to be an adult. Maybe she's just a fun-loving person who isn't going to act like a card-board cutout because other people think she should. Notice how everyone wants kids to be their "own individuals" as long as it coincides with what everyone else thinks is proper? I sure do.

Damn!
And here I thought it was ME getting married!

What's sad is that you have to drag in issues and topics that were never part of this thread because in all reality you know that the press making a big deal out of Jenna Bush's "out-stuck tongue" is just as ridiculous as some of the other crap the press likes to drudge up on politicians. Personally, I don't give two bits that Kerry's wife is wealthy. It takes money to get to the White House, or even to get the chance to be on the ticket for the position. Anyone who says otherwise has some serious blinders that need to be removed.
But if you want to talk about the "poor picked on Dems" you must look at the fact JFK, the Democratic golden boy did things like cavorting with other women *in* the White House. We know all of this now and we (general) *still* talk about JFK like he was some sort of God. Repubs have had their fair share of being picked on too...look at Ronald Reagan who took ALL KINDS of flack for being married to a strong woman. Nancy ran the White House. Nancy ran the country, Ronald was the front man...on and on and on.... How 'bout Barbara Bush? I can recall hearing a lot of "jokes" about her stately, matronly, "old woman" looks.
Point is....NONE of it really matters. And don't forget...two wrongs don't make a right...at least not in my universe.
alfreda who really doesn't care what Bush's children do, they are not running for office.
ROTFLMAO
God forbid two people enter into a loving marriage....Men and women get married every day for the wrong reasons, but hey, it's ok, because they're of the opposite gender.
