18 venomous reply posts, including yours, and nobody bothers recognizing the fact that they are reacting to the words of the article author, not Jenna Bush's.
Author - "And Bush has the audacity to tell USA Today that she envisions her teen-single-mother-with-AIDS book as having the same influence as Anne Frank's The Diary of Anne Frank. "
Jenna Bush - "...hopes her book will have some of the influence of two books about girls caught up in the Holocaust: Lois Lowry's novel Number the Stars and Anne Frank's The Diary of Anne Frank."
There is a world of difference between "the same", a bold objective and "some", a modest objective.
I guess in the quest to belittle someone, details don't matter.
It is completely possible this is a morality tale designed to help girls make a better life for themselves through better choices. A point that seems to be completely glossed over here.
I wish I completely understood what was happening to "real conservatives" these days.
I didn't belittle her. I criticized her comparison. Details do matter.
Thanks for that post.
