RELAX !!! I know a number of girls their age that act the very same way. They were cute,at ease, and having fun! They will not make George "W" lose ground !! RELAX
The phrase "shake it like a polaroid picture" is from the Outkast song talking about shaking their booty while dancing. remember "bend over let me see you shake your tail feathers" from "The Blues Brothers" movie same thing.
I'm not worrying in the least about the girl's fashion. ...I just thought it was funny that she wore an Al Sharpton jogging suit.
Make up your mind.
You honestly can't distinguish between "worrying" about something and "laughing at" something?
As I said, you're an odd one.
Not until you came along. Why don't you enlighten me.
As did I.
If Arnold were here he'd call these worryworts girlie men. I have never seen such panic and fear over NOTHING. By Thursday Evening, nobody is going to remember the girls even spoke, much less any of the silly things they said. This is crazy.
"Most people send their children to Catholic school for the values and morals that are taught and how cool they are is not among them.
Are you at all concerned about their goodness, strength of character and love for God? It certainly doesn't sound like it."
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm . . . yet another pretentious, anal retentive, sanctimonious Freeper PRESUMING to lecture me about morality/character issues [If you only knew . . . which by the way is the point . . . you don't know!!]
BTW the descriptors that I used in my original post were 'shorthand' rhetorical devices designed to communicate the following: "coolest of the cool" -- my son and friends are 'plugged in' to contemporary popular culture (they know what other kids consider 'cool') // "Catholic High School" -- my son/friends, while aware of popular culture, are not slaves to it. They attend Catholic HS because they and we 'walk the talk' when it comes to our Christian values -- 'nuf said!
What do you expect, Jenna is a T-sip.
I was cringing too.
But I will say that Barbra came off much better and more well-spoken than Jenna.
At least they don't claim to be experts on things they know nothing about, unlike Ron Reagan Jr.
They were WONDERFUL!
This convention had a ton of momentum and Barbara and Jenna brought it to a screeching halt. I am not so much of a humorless tight ass that I thought any of it was inappropriate. It just wasn't funny. The gals ought to get Jay Leno to stop writing their material for them.
Good God that was sweet!
The girls did quite well. They were truly funny, a bit goofy, and appropriate! Barbara Bush and Bush41 enjoyed the speech and were laughing yet the old hags and prudes of Free Republic and angry enough to remove their house dresses and slippers, put on the flowered long dress with the high neck line and take the streets in their Buick Le Sabre's. Oy!
Wow that's clever - making fun of a screenname. You're going to spend a lot of time insulting and hollering if you are expecting everyone to have lockstep opinions about the Bush girls.
The grandmother joke just made me uncomfortable. If you know Mrs. Bush (I don't) maybe you can ask her if she wasn't taken aback just for a second there and let me know.
Nah, don't. Even though I'm not Republican, I still support the president and am proud of him and his family but they don't walk on water. No sense in doing the enemies work though so I think I'll back on out of this thread.
Yup, they ruined the vibe that was going on.
Right after they dropped the 'Sex in the city' line it was obvious the crowd didn't know how to take it.
It was like they were all looking at one another going "Are we supposed to laugh?"
I really thought they'd be better.
They should be seen and not heard.
I saw it on C-span this morning, and I cringed, too. It was a disaster, IMO.
