The Jenna and Barb chat? Riiiight.

We were highly entertained by the online chat just held over at GeorgeWBush.com; it's not every day you get people involved in politics to give you off-the-cuff, unscripted answers to serious questions about where the country is headed. So today really wasn't that different from other days. Oh sure, the chat with Jenna and Barbara Bush was hilarious, but only because we expected them to start responding with, "Affirmative, Dave, I read you." Their responses were an insult to Stepford Wives, but then again, the questions were an insult to our intelligence:

Susan Kildow from Holly Springs NC wrote: 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 answered: Well, Susan, 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.


It's not just that 22-year-olds don't talk like that, it's that no one talks like that. Jenna and Barb weren't answering these questions, these questions were being answered by Ken Mehlman and Karl Rove, who may have been dressed like Jenna and Barb...
