Jenna Bush… The Blonde One

So Diane Sawyer interviewed Jenna Bush, the blonde one, for tonight’s episode of 20 / 20. I can’t wait to see it.

Jenna wrote a book, you know. It’s called ANA’S STORY, the true story of a 17-year-old mother living with HIV. I wish I had known about it sooner as I would have read it before the interview. I’m dying to find out how she relates to Ana’s nightmare, what with her security detail and her previous impertinence to the law…

Jenna actually had the audacity to tell USA Today that she envisions her teen-single-mother-with-AIDS book as “hopefully” having the same influence as Anne Frank’s THE DIARY OF ANNE FRANK. She compares her book and its topic to two books on the Holocaust, Lois Lowry’s novel NUMBER THE STARS and Frank’s. She even named her single-teen-mother-with-AIDS heroine Ana, a Latino version of Anne. It’s quite a stretch. But then again, she’s Bush’s daughter.

These days Jenna is an elementary school teacher and claims that her partying days are behind her. We all remember those, right?

Jenna nabbed for being in possession of alcohol, Jenna nabbed for using a false ID in an attempt to buy alcohol. Ahhh, those were the good ole’ days.Yes, well, now she’s all grown up, partying days behind her (is that because of probation or a deliberate attempt to dry out?), teaching elementary school and writing a book. Oh, and she went to work for UNICEF in FOUR different Latin American and Caribbean countries where she documented the lives of children living in extreme poverty - it must’ve been a tough 6 months. I wonder where she stayed? The Grand Hyatt? The El Presidente? I mean when you have Secret Service Agents around you at all times you can’t just bed down in a hut.

Anyway, in a sneak peak at Sawyer’s interview, Sawyer pressed her on the issue of Iraq, saying that some people like Matt Damon argue that the Bush daughters should be fighting over in Iraq.

Jenna tried to dodge the issue, but finally gave the following response: I think there are many ways to serve your country. I think if people really thought about it, they know that we would put many people in danger. But I understand the point of it. I hope that I serve by being a teacher.

IF PEOPLE REALLY THOUGHT ABOUT IT, THEY KNOW THAT WE WOULD PUT MANY PEOPLE IN DANGER. BUT I UNDERSTAND THE POINT OF IT.

Now is it just me, or did his daughter just spout a Bush-ism. What on earth is she trying to say? Yes, let’s put people in danger, many of them, because now that I think about it - that’s the point. More people in more danger. Let’s go. Line ‘em up. Jenna gets it so here they go.

I think that’s why we call her the blonde one. I love Bush-isms. But now we have Jenna on a press tour. And guess what? Jenn-isms… What more could one ask for?
