Jenna Bush to write book for teens about HIV>..
http://news.yahoo.com/s/afp/20070306/ts_alt_afp/afpentertainmentusbush_070306153959

WASHINGTON (AFP) - Jenna Bush, the daughter of US President George W. Bush, is entering the publishing world with a book for teens that focuses on a teenage single mother in Panama living with HIV.

The 25-year-old, who along with her twin sister Barbara once provided fodder for tabloids because of her collegiate partying and underage drinking, told the daily USA Today that she hoped the book would get "kids thinking and involved".

The president's daughter said "Ana's Story: A Journey of Hope", which is due out this fall, was inspired by her work as an unpaid intern since September for UNICEF in Central America.

"I'm aware that not all kids can pick up and fly to Panama, I'm very lucky," she was quoted as saying.

2. F*ck you, Jenna. You're just a tramp.
Your Mother is a murderer, and your Father is one of the biggest idiots to ever walk the face of the Earth.

Both of your parents have done more harm to America than the terrorists have.

No one wants to read your f*cking book. It will be in the bargain bin next to Mary Cheney's book. Go to hell, it's where your whole family belongs.

5. Well, if she is "preaching" about HIV, etc. I think that would open
her up to a few questions about her sex life and her Christian upbringing. And how she doesn't have to worry about HIV because she is a virgin and doesn't use drugs, yadda, yadda, yadda. I bet she couldn't even answer that with a straight face. That is what these neofascist do, "do as I say, not as I do" kind of a thing. And don't expect ME to live like I TELL you to live.

If she is going to write a book for teenagers maybe they need to hear how she practiced what she writes.

16. That's such a wonderful, healthy attitude. It would be nice if at least one of the
kids managed to straighten up and fly right.

7. What is she gonna tell the kids?
That you can catch HIV from shaking someone's hand, sitting on a toilet or using the dishes of an infected person. :sarcasm: The only thing I expect to hear from any Bush is lies and misinformation.

18. Why does none of that make sense?
Republican values suggest Jenna should be against that 17 year old girl with her baby and disease-by-choice...

Abstinence in America; debauchery everywhere else, is that it?
