AP:Bush Twins Break Silence About Campaign, Parties
http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&cid=615&e=3&u=/nm/bush_twins_dc

This is interesting. They are actively campaigning, yet Scotty implores the media to "show respect" as if Fox news would ignore a juicy little story involving one of Kerry's daughters.

Then there's this contradiction. "It's not like he (Bush) called me up and asked me," Jenna told Vogue magazine in their first joint interview, released on Tuesday. "They've never wanted to throw us into that world, and I think our decision probably shocked them. But I love my dad, and I think I'd regret it if I didn't do this."

Yet later on in the article, Jenna, an English major, says : "I'm just not political," said Jenna. "I have opinions, but there's nothing about the process that has ever interested me. I'm 22, and this is the first interview I've ever done in my life." So why is she campaigning?

Babs Jr. Graduated from Yale with a Major in Humanities and says she wants to go to Africa to work with children affected with AIDS, but "We thought it would be better to wait (to start) until after November," I commend her if this is what she really wants to do, but the cynic in me smells another campaign ploy.

1. Of course she hopes he'll win...
he'll be too busy to interfere in her life if he is still pretzeldent.

Besides, he'll be hell to live with after he loses in November. Probably go on another drinking binge.

2. and there's this about pickles:
"my dad thinks my mom's funny even though she's really not -- she's cute, she has funny quirks."

As for Shrub, "He's not the shotgun-dad type, he's the joking-around-to-the-point-where-he-scares-the-heck-out-of-them type."

3. They major in English and Humanities??
THAT could explain a few things. Yale humanities must be as bad as NCstate's.
