To Be Announced
For years, President Bush and his wife have been doing their best to keep media coverage of their daughters to a minimum, and considering what we heard on the rare occasions that a story did leak out, I can't say that I blame them. But the Bush twins are out of school now, and they're on the campaign trail. One of their first jobs in their attempt to get daddy re-elected was an on-line chat on George W. Bush's website. You may have seen some portions of this chat, but anything you saw was edited down from its raw form. Only now can Tgreen2004 show you actual unedited excerpts from the Bush twins' first on-line chat:

DJ from Methuen:
Hey Barbara and Jenna! I'm a supporter of your Dad, and I frequently help out at the New Hampshire state headquarters in Manchester. I was wondering why you two have all of a sudden decided to come out and support your Dad now. I completely support and applaud your decision to join him. Thanks a lot for your attention!

Barbara and Jenna Bush:
Hi, DJ -- thanks for helping out at the state headquarters. It means so much to us to see people just as excited as we are to get our Dad reelected. DJ, you wouldn't happen to be rich, would you? We've found that most of our dad's supporters are pretty well off, which is good because poor people can be annoying. Do you have a boat? We'd love to see your boat the next time we're up in New Hampshire. Do you know any good bars in the area? There are a few places up there we're not allowed to go back to, if you know what we mean.

EF from Miami:
If you could only describe your father in one sentence, what would you say?

Barbara and Jenna Bush:
One sentence...E, that is a hard one! Okay: Our dad has given us an amazing life full of love and support and he never even batted an eye that time we needed bail money down in Mexico. He was pretty cool about it. And also, our dad knows where the WMDs are, but he's not going to say right now because people are always saying he's being too political and stuff. Oh, wait, that was totally more than one sentence. Sorry.

OL from San Antonio:
Hi Barbara and Jenna! Are you guys currently working on anything to encourage the younger voters to go out and vote for President Bush?

Barbara and Jenna Bush:
Hey, O - thanks for writing us. We love Texas and we're sure you do, too. Don't mess with Texas! We love Texas so much Jenna even went to college there. Texas is the best. Remember the Alamo! Did you ever watch that show Dallas? It's on the Soap Opera Network and we watch it every day. It isn't very realistic, but we love JR. He's so mean. We just saw the episode when Bobby Ewing was in the shower because everything from the last season was a dream. Could you imagine if Al Gore was in the shower in the White House because our daddy winning the election was all a dream? That would be so weird. Wow. What was the question again?

MH from Los Angeles:
Hey girls, I think you two are so talented. And so brave! How did you handle it when one of you had to go away and get treated for anorexia? That must have been so hard because you two are so close. How did you get through that?

Barbara and Jenna Bush:
Uh, are you sure that was us? That doesn't sound familiar. There was this one time Jenna had to go in and get treated for alcohol poisoning, but that was totally bogus because she'd had, like, three drinks that night and our secret service guy blew it all out of proportion just because she decided to take a nap at the Waffle House.

SK from Holly Springs:
As young women who embody the future of our nation, how important do you believe character to be when choosing a candidate and how does your dad stack up?

Barbara and Jenna Bush:
Well, S, to us character is the most vital part of being an excellent leader. While we may be a little biased because he is our dad, we think - well, we KNOW -- that our Dad is a man of strong and principled character. If he says he is going to do something, he will do it. When we were kids, if dad said he was going to come to one of our soccer games, he would be there! And now even his critics can't argue that he is a steadfast leader who means what he says and acts with resolve. At the same time, he always treats everyone he meets with dignity and respect

MC from Boston:

That was a very well-thought-out and coherent answer, girls. Are you sure it was you and not Karl Rove answering that one?

Barbara and Jenna Bush:
No, M, that was all us. 100% completely all-American young women Barbara and Jenna Bush.

MC from Boston:
So if I wanted to let Karl Rove know I can't make our 3 o'clock tomorrow, I can't say that here?

Barbara and Jenna Bush:
Nope, because we're not Karl. We're Barbara and Jenna. And we can just reschedule for 4:30. How's that fit into your schedule?

MC from Boston:
That's fine. Thanks Karl.

Barbara and Jenna Bush:
No problem, M. See you then.

LN from Humble:
What character trait - as a father - do you appreciate most about your Dad and how do you see that trait manifest itself in him as President?

Barbara and Jenna Bush:
Hey there. It is really difficult to choose only one characteristic about our father because we think he has many incredible qualities. One thing that we love about him is his open-mindedness. When we were in college, he totally understood if we got busted for underage drinking or skipping class or even copying our homework from older, more experienced classmates. He's totally the coolest about all that stuff. He told us the most important lesson we could ever learn is that nothing counts until you turn 40. Isn't that the greatest advice ever?

SL from Pittsburgh:
Hey girls, I think it's just amazing how you two managed to swap in and out of the house without any of your houseguests figuring it out. That shot of Jase when the twist was revealed was priceless! He's totally screwed and he knows it. Love you two. Good luck for the rest of the game!

Barbara and Jenna Bush:
Uh, aren't you in the wrong chat? You probably want the Big Brother chat, right? When we were younger we used to switch places all the time to fool daddy until finally when we were 13 mom explained to him that we don't really look alike. After that we could only fool him sometimes.

GB from Washington:

Barbara and Jenna Bush:
Daddy? Is that you?

BC from Chappaqua:
Hey girls, I was just wondering if you plan to do any campaigning in the New York area. I've got an office in the city, and I'd love it if you dropped by. The office is kind of uptown, but I could send a car for you. I'd love for you to see this little back room the office has. It's the coolest. Very, very private

Barbara and Jenna Bush:
B, that sounds great! We could hang out in the office and talk all about daddy's campaign.

BC from Chappaqua:
There's nothing I like better than hearing the word "daddy" in that room, girls. You have no idea.

Barbara and Jenna Bush:
Cool! We'll just check our schedule and--

HC from Chappaqua:
The hell you will! B, get away from the computer before I come home and throw it out!

BC from Chappaqua:
Okay, okay! Fine, I'll get off the computer. Just don't come home, okay? Don't come home!

Barbara and Jenna Bush:
That's so funny. It totally reminds us of this time when we were little girls and daddy came home late one night. He was talking in his "party voice," the one he used after he had to work overtime. This one time, daddy had been working overtime for three nights in a row and he came home and--

Moderator:
And that's all the time we have for this chat. Thanks to everyone for participating.

Barbara and Jenna Bush:
Well, looks like our time is up! We really appreciate everyone joining us online today! Don't forget to vote for our Dad in November!

MC from Boston:
Good night, Karl.

Barbara and Jenna Bush:
Good night.
