I agreed until after September 11th when she wrote her semi-fabricated piece about how she wandered around Manhattan on that horrific day supposedly "worrying about how Bush's tax cut was going to affect the people harmed".
At that point, as an adult, she made herself fair game.
Also, he looks came into play when liberal reporters starting writing fantasies about how she had morphed into a sex goddess who had young men salivating over her.
I see your point. Could Mom and Dad have had that written for her?
Much as when Amy Carter became a college protester.
