First Lady: Twins May Hit Campaign Trail

ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON (AP) -

President Bush's twin daughters may take part in their father's re-election bid after they graduate from college this spring, first lady Laura Bush said Thursday.

Mrs. Bush told CNN that her 22-year-old daughters, Jenna and Barbara, are contemplating a role in what may be their father's last campaign.

"It seems to me that they are spending most of their time saying really terrible things about my husband," she said. "No, I really don't like that."

Mrs. Bush also said she was disappointed in CBS' telecast of Janet Jackson's breast exposure during the Super Bowl halftime show last weekend.

****hey this may work agaibst bush....remember the Secret Service getting one of the twins boyfriends out of jail...and the picures of one twin drunk....this is what I think of when I hear about them....

They will energize all the college kids to vote Democrat. . . unless they just have keggers and try to buy votes that way.

10. I was just thinking the same thing....
I can understand the press leaving them alone,
if that was the deal,
but if they get trotted out to "help daddy"
then they become fodder for public consumption,


in my humble opinion.

14. Family Values I Declare!!!
Yes, weren't we supposed to handle these precious little darings with care...we wouldn't want them to turn into a Chelsea Clinton forgodsakes.

Repugnicans wouldn't dare exploit their children for their parents political ambitions...the poor darlings.

Remember when picking on the Anheiser-Bush twins was the only real dirt we had on bunnypants?

9. Wouldn't it be a hoot if the twins were met at every pit stop by thousands
of protesters carrying six-packs of beer and chanting slogans like "Party On" and "Four More Beers!"

15. NOW do they become "public figures?"
Although their antics have been reported and commented on by DUers, some argued that this was not fair since they were the children of public figures and not public figures themselves. Many of you held up as an example how the VRWC constantly ridiculed Chelsea Clinton (i.e., the "White House dog" comment by Rush Limbaugh(who now can be excused for this since he is a junkie and probably didn't know what he was saying)).

With the Twins going public in support of their dad, do the gloves come off?

17. The "girls" , as Laura calls them are TWENTY-TWO years old
I can understand her calling them that, since I am a Mom, and sometimes refer to my sons, as my boys...even though they are 25,26 & 30.. but I actually heard her refer to them as "teens" yesterday..

Earth to Laura.. teens end at age 20..

They really should campaign for their Dad.. I do not like the man, but he IS their Dad, and they should be a bit more involved now that they are through school and all grown up..

These twp "girls" have been ghosts for 4 years now.. I never even heard a reference in the media about *Mom & Pop* going to their graduations...Do we ever see them even pictured in any white house events??

I think they have a rebellious streak in them and Uncle Karl WANTS them out of the link..

27. You forget SoCalDem, that repukes don't consider themselves to be adults
until they are in their forties. Hence, the word "teens" could be used legitimately to refer to 22 year old women of the repuke persuasion!

What I'm wondering is how Pickles can be sure that Jenna will graduate as expected this year...

19. They become "fair game" on the campaign trail. They are women not
children. Since they are going to be used for politcal reasons...they will have to be ready to abused for politacl reasons. Hope they can stay sober.

21. from the story
She said she was not watching the program, but that "what it represented was a kind of television viewing that you don't want little children to see. ... Parents didn't know to turn the television off before that happened."

Yeah, Pickles -- your daughters are so dignified. They wouldn't be caught dead in an "over the top" moment.

23. Bring Em On!
The entertainment value alone would be worth it, though it might be like watching an automobile accident at times (painful).
