More like an arranged photo op that fooled no one.

Do not be fooled by Jenna Bush.
She has wrapped herself in the golden glow of celebrity. But she is something else entirely.
For almost seven years, the blond Bush twin has reveled in the trappings associated with Hollywood starlets -- from wearing made-to-order designer clothes to smiling brightly from the glossy pages of a Vogue photo spread. She has walked red carpets and swanned past velvet ropes. Like so many celebrities, she has taken on a cause -- education -- and is using her fame to stir interest and attract media attention to an upcoming book tour. She has indulged in the kind of naughty behavior that paints her as human but not necessarily in need of an intervention. As she said onstage at the 2004 Republican convention, in a scripted introduction of her mother that had all the awkward, self-deprecating humor of an Oscar segue: She and her twin, Barbara, had misbehaved when they were "young and irresponsible." Who couldn't relate to that?
Jenna even had a moment of public exasperation with the media -- her own version of a modest paparazzi meltdown. She stuck her tongue out at the press corps from behind the gray windows of the presidential limousine while campaigning with her father.

Some presidential children seemed perfectly suited to the job of symbol. The image of Chelsea Clinton walking hand in hand with her parents toward a waiting helicopter, symbolically bridging the divide caused by the Monica Lewinsky scandal, is a part of history. But from the beginning, Jenna struggled with the demands of presidential symbolism. She wore a cherry-red camisole onstage when her father celebrated his reelection in 2004, prompting questions about whether first daughters should wear lingerie-like clothing on such public occasions.

That is a stunning photo! Excellent post.
Wow, that picture explains why this woman is so vicious towards ANY WOMAN thats attractive.
Jealousy, it’s that simple.
This woman was “The Player of the Week” on Fox News Sunday a few weeks ago.....and yeah, she was the one sniping at Cheney.
I usually watch Fox News Sunday, up til the ‘Power Player of the Week’ which I’ve always found to be absurd, boring, and vapid.
Personally I think all three should be left alone. Yes Chelsea, Jenna and Barabra. They were not voted President and should be allowed to live they way they want too.
The image of Chelsea Clinton walking hand in hand with her parents toward a waiting helicopter, symbolically bridging the divide CAUSED BY THE MONICA LEWINSKY SCANDAL is a part of history.
Should read “caused by the Bill Clinton/Monica Lewinsky love scandal!!!! Her father chose to participate in it not just monica alone.
So what Robin????? Jealous????
That is so biased it is not even funny!
A catty attack. Having just come from a thread defending Chelsea Clinton, I’ll repeat it here. Jenna and Barbara Bush did not choose their parents. They should not be attacked like this until and unless they step into the political arena themselves.

I just threw up in my mouth a little.
Echoes of Jennings' 9-11 taunt "Some presidents do this sort of thing well, while others (rolls eyes) do not".
What a seething diatribe - the glaring hate hits one in the face. This woman has issues - personal ones.
And any editor who prints such blatant, biased, unbalanced hit piece should be blasted - so let’s do it!
