16. Good News: Jessica loves Bush but hates fundraisers
http://www.breitbart.com/news/2006/03/16/D8GCTHC82.html

Jessica Simpson loves President Bush. She's just not a big fan of Republican fundraisers.

The Hollywood starlet and tabloid cover girl was on Capitol Hill Thursday to lobby Congress for Operation Smile, an organization that provides reconstructive surgery to children with facial deformities. But all anyone wanted to know was why she turned down an invitation to attend a Republican fundraiser with Washington's top star _ Bush.

"We went back and forth and we could never get the details worked out," said her father and manager Joe Simpson. "When it became obvious that it was not just a state dinner, it was more of a fundraising event, that is the wrong purpose of why we are here."

Still, he said of the president, "We are huge fans of him and of his family, his girls. Jessica loves the heck out of him."

In fact, he said they were still trying to squeeze in a meeting with the chief executive. "We are trying to get in and out," he said.


Whelp, we get George Clooney and Bush gets Jessica Simpson - works fine for me!
