TURIN, Italy -- Before we have the privilege of chatting with presidential daughter Barbara Bush -- or, before we attempt to chat with her while she gives us a withering, Medusa-like stare -- we have the privilege of standing in the cold outside a place called Club Bud, where we have the privilege of shouting questions at a woman who is apparently well-known in Italy for being a showgirl.

And then, as if out of a dream, sitting by themselves on a long expanse of red couch, are first daughter Barbara Bush and an Unidentified Female Companion. Barbara accompanied her mom, Laura, in an Olympic delegation and stayed behind after the first lady left for home on Sunday. And now, apparently, she has decided she wants to party with us. She looks gorgeous. She's wearing jeans and a sleeveless olive top with a blue scarf, and her dark hair is full and wavy around her face. Babs!
We introduce ourselves and ask Miss Bush if she speaks Italian.
She fixes us with a disintegrating stare, the sort of look that could pulverize stone. She asks if we're planning on writing this down.
Um, yes?
She continues with the stare.
A-ha-ha-ha! Okay, then!
We take a seat a few feet away and try to figure out what sort of shoes she's wearing.
Within minutes, four young Italian men approach Barbara and the Unidentified Female Companion and attempt to chat them up. The young men strike out miserably and retreat to the end of a couch.
We go over to find out what happened and it turns out they have no idea who they just hit on.

Somebody at WaPo get as bored AT the Olympics as everyone else is watching it on tv?
I seem to recall that Chelsea was off limits to the press.
Would that all of the Bush family could treat the WP like that. What's the Post going to do-become a liberal rag and parrot the DNC's talking points with unabashed arrogance?
The greasy hair must turn her off.
Presidents kids(any) must be a nightmare for the SS.
Good for Barbara!
I've always known that that little girl has a lot on the ball!
She proves it again by her response to the subversive, socialist media.
Between that and the bloodshot eyes from last night's drinking and/or the doober he probably just toked on, it's a toss-up.
The klinton's demanded and got a ZONE OF PRIVACY.
That's what I thought. Different rules for conservatives and liberals, I guess.
Every day, I hate the media more than the previous day. Where will it end? LOL
Hmm... there ought to have been a security detail.
"Would that all of the Bush family could treat the WP like that."
....The only reason everybody in the Bush family doesn't greet the MSM with loaded and ready double-barrel shotguns is, IMHO, strictly because the Bush's have too much sense to shoot a skunk indoors.
Chelsea was off limits due to her fugly index.
I'd say the Wash Compost was treated better by Barbara than they deserved.
Is Barbara getting hammered with Bode? That would be real international news.
And from her namesake grandmother...
