Couldn't find this with a search. Guess the press will take the gloves off now, with the twins being in the public light.

For some strange reason, I don't see the "gloves coming off" for Kerry's kids....

Yes, we know that Vanessa Kerry has been VERY visible...ugh.
I hate the smarmy Austin UnAmerican's little digs about the Bush girls "run-ins with the law", as though no underage tu students drink and get away with it in that liberal hellhole of Austin.

thanks for the sneak peak.

Here is one from Washington Post...

The Bush family doesn't discuss the girls' past troubles in Vogue. But the interview does provide a few personal nuggets:


• The girls call each other "Sister" and say they are best friends.


• They love Mexican food, Starbucks soy lattes and sushi.


• The chatty Jenna is more like her dad - boisterous and outgoing. Barbara is more studious and guarded like her mom.


• Jenna is dating and Barbara has a serious boyfriend. They don't name names. Their father "is very funny with boyfriends," says Jenna. "He's the joking-around-to-the-point-where-he-scares-the-heck-out-of-them type."


Jenna says her parents have the "best marriage" because "my dad thinks my mom's funny even though she's really not." First lady Laura Bush is "cute; she has funny quirks," including an obsession with cleanliness, Jenna says.


Their grandfather, former president George Bush, keeps in touch with the girls via e-mail. Grandpa Bush has one complaint: "It takes them a month to answer. They're very naughty girls." Barbara says grandmother Barbara Bush, who reportedly chastised the twins after their run-ins with the law, "is strict about some stuff, but she's hilarious."


Both just graduated from college - Jenna from the University of Texas with an English degree and Barbara from Yale with a major in humanities. They're looking forward to being "independent and doing our own thing," says Jenna.


Barbara, interested in art therapy, will intern in the pediatric AIDS (news - web sites) program at Houston's Baylor College of Medicine. Jenna's dream is to open a charter school (a form of education her father supports). She has applied for a teaching job in New York, where she's moving with a friend.

Jenna does remind me so much of her dad and Barbara seems more like Laura. I could see Jenna being a cutup and Barbara being more refined. Both girls are gorgeous and should make both Presidents proud!!!

My only question is, where did W score that sports coat (I pray it's not a suit) ????

"I think the children of politicians should have lots of privacy. And it's probably a mistake for them personally to go on the publicity path, but their father probably needs all the help he can get," said Bryce Nelson, professor of journalism at the University of Southern California's Annenberg School for Communication.

no bias here.....How many times did the professor speak on the record about Chelsea's many spring break trips when we were subjected to daily adulations from the partisan press?

[SpinyNorman]

Damn!! Next to these young ladies, Vanessa Kerry, despite reveal all dresses (empty dress like her empty suit father?), does not even qualify to get on the same rating scale!

And I am sure that the President will not try to annul his marriage and make these women illegitimate in the eyes of the church.

[BaBaStooey]

I love them. They are so cute and beautiful, and I just know that I'd get along great with their "old man." Because, I like, voted for him and stuff. Yeah thats it.

Awaiting this issue of Vogue....I would usually never go near that magazine for any reason, but this is so tempting..
