Remember when Jenna Bush got married? Quite a contrast here!

[I still care]

I said years ago when I first heard Chelsea was engaged that the Clinton’s weren’t going to let this go to waste.

This is a big networking occaision for them, along with free publicity and the beginning of their new venture- whatever it turns out to be.

I personally think it Hillary has her sights set on the WH, and Barack better get out of the way. They won’t forget how the lib press turned on them for the “One” - they weren’t used to getting treated like scurvy Republicans.

I agree think of this as the kick off for her to run for 12 kinda like that dudes funeral some years back. I also feel kinda sad for Chelsea

Man, I bet that that cake will really taste good, don’t you think so Mr. Obama?

[laconic]

Imagine the howls of press/pulpit outrage if former President Reagan’s children had gotten married in a $ 5 million bacchanlia with a $ 11,000 wedding cake in the middle of a recession with 17.5 percent real unemployment. I wonder if John Kerry will sail in on his tax-free new yacht or if Treasury Secretary Geithner or Charles Rangel of the tax-writing House Ways & Means Committee will give presents purchased with their savings from cheating on their taxes?

Will the bridesmaids be in blue and wear berets??

Shades of Marie Antoinette here. The spectacle might impress many so-called little people and Hollywood groupies, but might not play that well with the left.

[vwbug]

My bet is that Chelsea is sedated that day.

Why can’t everyone have weddings like this?

It’s in the Constitution. ;-)

I met Hillary Diane Rodham when she was 22. Dare I say it? Hillary was better looking than Chelsea.

New money tackiness vs. old money class.

[al baby]

And Hillary will slip some salt peter into bills food for a few days before

[bandleader]

Don’t hold your breath!

[Kimmers]

I have been reading comments on this a few times today......people across the pond as well as here are not impressed, there are a lot of snarky comments.......
