Like, OMG! Jenna's writing a book!

[LTR]

You can soon add the title of author to first daughter Jenna Bush's résumé. Whispers learns that the 25-year-old blond twin of Barbara Bush is shopping a book proposal to major publishers in New York City. We're told that the project is vague and that she's initially only gauging publishers' interest. The White House wouldn't comment, but others say it will be a young-adult book based on the former grade school teacher's experiences with charity causes in Latin America. It ought to sell: She's represented by super lawyer-agent Robert Barnett, who squired her around publishing offices in the Big Apple earlier this month. The profits will go to charity.

1. "The former grade school teacher's experiences...."

And she's 25?

Well, that career sure didn't last long.

[LTR]

10. I didn't even know she was a teacher

Come to think of it, I don't think she's ever had a job.

[Cass]

15. LOL. That caught my eye, too. nt

[progdonkey]

31. well, Laura was a librarian for a whopping four years...

...and every time she's mentioned (especially when trying to deflect from Chimpy's idiocy), it's always pointed out that she's a "former librarian."

It's apparently a family tradition: you do a job for the bare minimum required, and then coast on it for the rest of your life.

After all, little Georgie spent a grand total of about one year actually showing up for duty in the Texas ANG, and he's a "former fighter pilot."

[Unperson]

2. I can see it now.

They will advertise the book in the style of a "Girls Gone Wild" infomercial. A lot of people up at 3:00 am will buy a book like that from an authoress like Jenna.

[Der Blaue Engel]

3. Why do I think "writing" is going to be an exaggeration in this case?

If any Pigfucker spawn has the ability to write, there's probably some paternity testing that needs to be done.

12. Some ghost writer is making a handsome sum off this

.

[HereSince1628]

4. Former teacher, sort of like former TANG Fighter Jockey.

I suppose millions would buy a diary by a daughter by Ivan the Terrible.

[undeterred]

5. told from the point of view of her lost underpants?

that might be interesting

[CrazyOrangeCat]

19. !

[havocmom]

6. 'One Hundred Bottles of Beer Off the Wall'?

Or 'Papa's Got a Brand New Bag...ON'?

[DesertRat]

7. It ticks me off that they call her a "former grade school teacher"

As far as I can tell, after receiving an English degree in Texas, she spent a couple of months volunteering at a school in Washington, D.C.

[marshall]

26. then on to somewhere in Latin America

I think Panama. After she finished her gig in DC she joined the Peace Corps or something and taught for a while down there.

[roody]

29. Taught possibly for three months!? Does she

speak Spanish??? As a real teacher, I am offended, grade school at that.

[DesertRat]

33. Definately not the Peace Corps which is a 2 year committent

Service to others is not a Bush family value.

[LeftyMom]

8. Is it a mixology book?

[roody]

9. She could write a critique of bars, liquors, and restaurants.

She is an expert on that, isn't she?

[Echotrail]

13. and dirty dancing

[roody]

28. and interesting underwear

[stevedeshazer]

11. Like, wow, man.

[LostInAnomie]

14. This will be pushing the limits...

... of the number of pictures and misspellings you can put to paper and still call it a book.

[mzmolly]

16. Like no waaaaaaay!

[skooooo]

17. She has so much to say...

...and add to the world, doesn't she?

[DinahMoeHum]

18. Working title is. . .

"My Life As A Rich And Drunken B****"

[Missy M]

20. The former grade school teacher's experiences with charity..

causes in Latin America. What a hoot. The book should be all of 10 pages.

[TahitiNut]

21. "Have Bush; Will Travel"

[CrazyOrangeCat]

22. Last month . . .

. . . when Britney and the other dumb little starlets were flashing their skanky tw*ts from limos (now THAT is a prepositional phrase!) I remember thinking, "Jenna's next."

I was wrong. Sorry Jenna, you're a real class act.



What? You say there's gonna be a centerfold???

[IntravenousDemilo]

23. Then she can read it to her dad, making sure to pronounce the bigger words slowly and clearly. n/m

[npincus]

24. "former" grade school teacher?

did she teach for 2 weeks or something?

[bikebloke]

25. I've seen her books in the book store

They have cloth covers. Some have lines on the pages, while others are clean. What was the title of one...oh yeah, "My Diary". It's about working on a cow farm, I'm sure.

[Neshanic]

27. "the project is vague". No really? I heard that it will be a 700 page book.

[NastyRiffraff]

30. The idea that Jenna will really write a book is ludicrous

She'll have a ghost writer, which will of course will be denied.

Wonder what happened to that "job" she was supposed to get in the DC Public Schools? Didn't last long, and after a lot of fanfare, that's the last we heard about it.

[AnnieBW]

32. "Girls Gone Wild - The Untold Story"

EIther that, or "My Pet Goat II"

[Obamarama]

34. Hopefully daddy will hold it right-side-up when he reads it!

I know the upside-down My Pet Goat pic was a photoshopped urban legend, but I just had to say it. It's not a stretch of the imagination to think that he'd actually TRY to read a book upside-down.
