Fairly certain you'll never see former First Lady Laura Bush with dreadlocks? Think again.
In an interview scheduled to air on Tuesday's "The Oprah Show," Jenna Bush reveals that her mother is "a secret Rastafarian" who "[plays] Bob Marley" around the house.

Needed, a pic of the former first lady with dreds
What is the implication of this remark?

So one of the best FLOTUS’ (Laura was one of the best, ever!) is way cooler than the current waist-belted wanna-be queen of America.
Works for me.
Relax, only humor
I think that’s what someone means when they say this.
Playing Bob Marley does not make someone a Rastafarian, secret or otherwise...
That Jenna has a sense of humor and is not aware or doesn’t care that anything she says will be used to reflect badly on her family.
Children should be seen and not heard. For over-indulged children, that should be forever.
I don’t know why but this column made me want a cold beer...
Not dope, ganja, you dope, ganja!
Humor? Humor? There ain't no humor around here anymore.......Too many people spoilin' for fights.
It doesn’t really matter now, but it seems like Jenna is saying her mother smokes that stuff.
-PJ
Sounds like a daughter who has fun with her mom (and vice versa, I suspect).
I always liked the twinkle in Mrs Bush's eye when she spoke of her husband and daughters. There appears to be lots of warm, family humor in that bunch.
LOL! I just can’t picture her singing “I shot the sheriff” while vaccuming. Maybe she changed the lyrics (like we all do sometimes)
“Cheney shot his buddy,
but he did not shoot the President”
:D
I am pleased that Jenna has not allowed herself to be manipulated into silence because of the FACT that the MSM and political enemies will attempt to use anything she says to reflect badly on her family. I wish more Republicans were like her. And in the end, the folks this REALLY reflects "badly on" are those who fall for the claptrap that this is somehow diminishing to Laura Bush and the Bush family.
They say that your "character" is defined by what you do when no one is looking, and I believe that is true. However, "character" is equally defined by what you do when EVERYONE is looking. My wise and wonderful dad taught me that if you make your choices based on what others will think of you, then others will control you.
Anybody stupid enough to think that Jenna's revelation says something "bad" about her mom is too stupid to be controlling anybody but themselves, let alone Jenna Bush.
