I have to say I am really impressed with the type of projects FL's First Lady Columba Bush works on.

Television is such a powerful medium, and to show kids they can create their own television shows, and teach them, through such shows, the best choices they can make, is simply a wonderful way to empower kids. They can control and create media for themselves, sharing information, instead of being passive spectators.

"Since becoming Florida's First Lady, Mrs. Bush has traveled with Director McDonough throughout the state speaking with youth about the dangers of substance abuse."

Pity-She should have stayed home a little more.

Why? Her two oldest childen are adults and do not reside at home, and her youngest goes away to school. Why do you wish for her to be home alone?

"The tremendous support that Mrs. Bush has shown to Florida youth will have a positive impact on their lives for years to come," Director McDonough said. "She is a real inspiration to the kids in our state."

Columba Bump

"Pity-She should have stayed home a little more."

Her daughter is an adult. Some kids never believe anything their parents tell them...until they are forced to learn from their own, heartbreaking mistakes in the school of hard knocks.

I have three adult children. I know.

You obviously have NO children and/or are still in the youthful "I know it all" phase.

Grow up.

You can be a pure hypocrite or you can look at events honestly.

Her daughter is in rehab while she traipzes around the state preaching to teenagers & parents and you don't see this as being hypocrytical? Does she talk about her own daughter at these events?

Oprah interviewed middle school students who told her thanks to ex-president Clinton oral sex was their pastime.

I like what Columba Bush is doing--being part of the solution.

No. The teenager you save may not be one of your own, no matter how much you would like to save your own as well. It's a cold, hard fact of life that only experience and disillusionment can teach.

"Does she talk about her own daughter at these events?"

Why should she constantly drag her daughter through the mud in order to satisfy some primal, hateful need that the class-envying among us nurture in their twisted little souls? What would it accomplish except to justify the blind hate of the rabid left, who want nothing more than to see the Bush family completely destroyed?

Besides, Mrs Bush has people like you, dogging and drooling at the heels of all of her accomplishments, and draggind her daughter through the mud FOR her.

You Bushbots are so hypocritical -Imagine if this was Hillary & Chelsea?

What's next? Columba giving seminars on Free Trade? (how not to pay duties on your Paris shopping spree)

Am watching Apocolypse now-More hypocrisy.
