Bush twin stolen cellphone ends up on Argentinian eBay auction
Last week, “mercado libre,” the Argentinian eBay, featured a quickly-removed auction for Barbara Bush’s stolen cell phone. The auction started at 1,000 pesos, and the seller jokingly declared that the phone would be delivered to the winner by Osama bin Laden himself.

Though no proof of authenticity was provided, the partial list of numbers to be found on the stolen phone leave no doubt in our mind that it’s the genuine article:

The White House, Pentagon, FBI, CIA, the IMF, and personalities like Michael Jackson, grandfather George H. W. Bush, Paris Hilton, Madonna, Ozzy Osbourne and much more.

There is no word yet on whether the phone, like the stolen Sidekick of Bush BFF Paris Hilton, is full of dirty photos of America’s Sweethearts — and as the gentleman who found the device has probably been disappeared by now, we may never know.

1. So are the Bush twins threats to Homeland Security? Wonder if
they'll be waterboarded. It's not torture. "It's a no-brainer."

3. Shouldn't people under Secret Service protection have more secure phones?

Like, even MINE has the option to use a code to LOCK it.

I know, Turquoise and Twinkle can't be expected to remember a whole four-digit number to unlock their phones every time they want to call The Neverland Ranch..

But shouldn't anyone important enough to require Secret Service protection also have some kind of phone that can be erased remotely?

5. That's a good point given that there were no doubt very sensitive phone numbers on it.
I'm still trying to figure out what Michael Jackson and a Bush twin would talk about often enough that it would necessitate the exchange of phone numbers.

6. Bawble & Jennatalia should have the same phone code....
that way they'd each & only have to remember two numbers..
Bawble remems the first two and Jennatalia remems the last two.
ummm well maybe that's still too confusing.

Stupidity spawns stupidity.
