You can't just write off this kind of foolishness to "being a kid." They know that the whole world's watching and they don't care enough about their mother and father to behave. They're just plain selfish.
The question is why? I suspect that it has something to do with the way they were raised by their mother. Laura identifies herself as "pro-choice" which renders her judgement in general to be suspect.
Absolutely. Can you imagine having all the opportunities that those girls have, yet wasting your time (and embarrassing your family) hanging out in bars in quest of booze???? It's pathetic.
It's also amazing that the twin's drinking escapades are causing the Bush family more trouble than Laura's support of Roe v. Wade. That's even more pathetic.
A comment like this non-sequitur makes your judgement suspect.
