Whenever Jenna or Barbara Bush, who were both over 21, would go out for a little fun, there were howls and screams from the main stream press about what tramps they were, and how they were bad role models for young women everywhere, except for the white trailer trash that they obviously represented.
Fast forward to Malia Obama, at 18, partying with the big boys, and appearing to be inebriated in public. The main stream press? CRICKETS! Well, except for the obligatory puff piece about how she and Sasha are such “good girls”, and true role models for young girls, regardless of race or sexual orientation (female or any male identifying this week as a female).
Hypocrisy? Double Standards? Heck, no.
“Whenever Jenna or Barbara Bush, who were both over 21....”
The media were hard on the Bush twins when they were cited for underage drinking.
Jenna and Barbara are not exactly beloved much here at FR these days. That said glaring double standard for sure.
Actually the Bush girls were under at the time.
How quickly we forget.
