She hit her husband with an ultimatum that made him quit getting drunk, but Laura Bush was hands off when it came to her daughters and the bottle, a new book reveals.

The First Lady refused to discipline twins Jenna and Barbara when they were busted for underage drinking at a Texas watering hole, says the book, "The Perfect Wife: The Life and Choices of Laura Bush."

"They just want to do like every other teenager does," Laura Bush said of her daughters.

Ann Gerhart, author of the unauthorized biography, writes, "Laura was unable or unwilling to rein in her rebellious daughters ...

"Even when Laura was confronted with solid evidence that her girls were deliberately and dangerously evasive with their agents, she refused to correct them."

Will the author of this book and the bookstores who dare to carry it suffer the next Repug jihad?
