Jenna Calls Dad from Ellen Show--SWEET
Yahoo Video ^ | Dec 5, 2007 | YAHOO

Posted on 12/05/2007 8:12:31 PM PST by chardonnay

Yahoo Video. Click to watch. You won't be dissapointed. Jenna Bush appeared on the Ellen Degeneres show. Ellen asked Jenna how easy it was to call her dad, so they did. George W Bush shows what a great father he is and Jenna shows how much she respects her parents.

Not sure what Ellens motive was, but it turned out to be a very sweet phone call and the audience loved it. It was all about BUSH, George, not ellen...ooops. LOL!!!!

Thanks for posting this. That was an excellent opportunity for folks to see that President & Mrs. Bush are great people and wonderful parents. Jenna didn’t get to be as sweet and smart as she is by accident.

Now just imagine that call from Chelsea or from Kerry's braless daughters.

Very nice parents of Jena.

I really don’t think Ellen had an ulterior motive. I think she thought it was really cool to be able to have any president on her show. I just watched the clip and it was really sweet.

She’s refreshing and darling, and she looks so much like Mrs Bush. I emailed the video to my family.

THAT was wonderful! I love how down-to-earth the twins are, you can’t help but like them.

And Jenna has always been my fave.

Thanks, Char!

What a lovely and loving family the Bushes are.
It goes to show you can’t fake class; on the other side, you can’t hide common (need I say who?)...

Don’t you just love reality...President Bush is just a Daddy when those girls call. I feel as though the MSM has tried to destroy this very fine man and his family.

Girls from the South...still call their father daddy. I’m 57 and still call my father daddy. I think he would be disappointed if I didn’t. I bet the last 7 years have been very rough on this family. I will be pleased when the nightmare is all over for them. They are all wonderful people and the MSM has hurt the office of the Presidency for all time with their antics.

FRED THOMPSON will make a wonderful President and JERI will make a magnificent First Lady. God Bless them for their sacrifice to WE THE PEOPLE!

You are so welcome. I love W and his family.

NOTE: mark your calendars for December 16th when HGTV will do a tour of the White House Christmas Decorations.
you can sneak a peak at them now on whitehouse.gov, Laura’s page. Every year Laura has done a fantastic theme.

Also, did you know that you can find old WH ornaments on ebay? And....it’s too late this year, but you can also sign up to receive a Christmas card from them. My daughter has one. woohoo. we’re special.

I quite enjoyed that. The audience seemed to as well.

The comments on her site regarding the clip, though, are hysterical. There are people frothing at the mouth because Ellen DARED be cordial to the Bush family—that she didn’t start screaming at Jenna and denouncing the President as a war criminal when he got on the phone.

Pathetic. What will these people do when he is no longer President? If I were a puppy in any of those homes, I would be worried.

Balch3, come on...give credit where credit is due. Ellen D is pretty well grounded (while I may not condone her lifestyle, this is America, and she is entitled to live the way she wants), and I rather like her. She has never been nasty, militant or angry.

That may be why Jenna appeared on her show. Now, if it were Rosie O...different story, different person.

I can’t view video on my computer now, so haven’t seen what’s on YouTube, but saw a very brief clip from it on a news program this evening and it was darling!

I loved the photo of Dubya holding the twins as newborns - just precious!

I really don’t think Ellen had an ulterior motive.

Sure she did, she was just professional enough to recognize that it was a sweet moment that was out of her control and she went with it.

Ellen is the nicest host you could possibly go on. She would not have gotten that kind of respect on the View that is for sure. Ellen has a good heart. She just happens to be a lesbian. Big woop.

Whenever I accidentally click on Ellen I stay and watch. I like her humor, she’s very quick-witted and not mean. (Letterman sure has gotten mean in his old age!?)Ellen always seems to give her guests respect.

I don’t think she was trying to bait Jenna at all. Jenna said she can pick up the phone - so lets have some fun and pick up the phone and talk to “Daddy”. It seems to fit in with Ellen’s quick-witted humor and spontaneity.

I'm the same way. She just entertains and doesn't let her politics (if she has any) get in the way of her show.

"I feel as though the MSM has tried to destroy this very fine man and his family."

You "feel" it because it is true! And, you're right about "girls" in the South calling their fathers daddy. Most of us aren't offended about being called "girl" at any age, and most of us are proud to be "daddy's little girl" for as long as our daddies live - maybe even as long as we live. It doesn't diminish one bit our strength as women. It's an expression of devotion demonstrating that we never outgrow the special love and respect we have for our fathers, regardless of time and circumstance.

You don’t know me, either.

For example, think of all the housewives who were disappointed when Rosie came out of the closet. For years, they thought she was “just like them.”

It’s television — an entertainment, an act, not real.

Thank you...I’ve been told on several occasions that the word “daddy” was a little odd at my age. To me, it is a term of endearment. My daughter is 34 and still calls my husband daddy. He loves it now and always has.

I even tell my dog “Jerry Lee” that “daddy’s home” and he goes nuts.

LOL...”Jerry Lee”...love it!

Our dog was the same way. Daughter still calls my husband daddy, and still calls me mommy, most of the time, when she is speaking to me. She calls me mother, most of the time, when she speaks about me to others outside of the family. It is, as you say, a term of endearment.

what’s important is that ellen is not a combative militant like rosie, who is so not the norm, so lets not lump ellen into that column until she shows signs.
