"My favorite is the Republican," said Laura Bush.

I guess it doesn't matter who the nominee might be. :rolleyes:

Heh, I wonder if the Bush daughters will go the way of Patti Reagan and reject the political philosophy of their parents.

Ummm... so? Kids aren't supposed to be identical copies of their parents.
 
Who said that anyone is not supposed to be anything?

But in fact I would tend to expect that they will reject the philosophy of their parents, as many kids do.
 
Julie Nixon supports Obama - maybe she and Jenna should get together...

Right... so then why is this news?
 
Why did you look?
 
Egad! I am experiencing a personal crisis: With Jenna in the news so much lately I couldn't help but notice that, she's cute!

I think a Bush is cute? Aaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

Nah, I see a nice blend of both her parents' features. Actually, Bush isn't a bad looking guy either, he has almost a boyish cuteness to him. It's only when he opens his mouth that it spoils it. :wink:

I know what you mean, but still it's BUSH!

She isn't bad looking, but I couldn't get physical with her without the insane fear of her dad's face popping up and saying "Trrrsist" or something. That would ruin it.

That photo looks so much like George W Bush I have to wonder if it's photoshopped.

Ok looks like it's not since so many of her other photos are the same. It still freaks me out.

Shes got features from both her parents. However, not good features. Shes not ugly, but she looks EXACTLY like her mom AND dad, which itself weirds me out. Every time I see her picture I think G and L bush. <shudder>

I think Jenna is very nice looking, but I'd have to give the edge to her twin sister, Barbara.

Even though I typically fancy the blondes, I've always had a thing for Barbara Bush...

This one is miles better than her sister. I don't know why her sister gets any attention at all compared to this one.

I fully agree. Jenna, though still cute, looks waaay too much like George.

"Jenna Bush not a committed Republican"

Is this usually what happens to Republicans then?

They get committed?

Is it bad that when I clicked the link, I felt intimidated?

I find her to be ugly. So, no.

Jenna: Not so much.

Barbara: Not bad at all.

McCain's Daughter: Looks like she belongs in porn. And I don't mean that in a complimentary way.

Chelsea: Never understood why so many people thought she was ugly. Then again I have a thing for geeky looking girls. But she came from Bill and Hillary. :-/
