Defending the Twins
So, people aplenty are going to be trashing the Bush girls after tonight. Yes, they were a little dizzy. But I don't think that's a problem. Part of tonight's program was about comparing the Kerry family to the Bush family.
Teresa Heinz Kerry is a cosmopolitian heiress. Laura Bush is a wholesome librarian. The Kerry girls hang out at Cannes in see-through dresses. The Bush girls get busted trying to buy margaritas at a bar in Texas. Who do you think remind average Americans more of their own daughters? My bet is that a lot more parents see their own children in Jenna & Barbara.
Outside Madison Square Garden crazy looney lefties are acting like Bush is the anti-Christ. But the scene inside the Garden is of a man and a family that is very much like families all across America. That's a sharp contrast with John Kerry, a man who can't even come up with the correct name for Lambeau Field. The message is that not only can Americans relate to the Bush family, but Bush can relate to them. Meanwhile, John F'ing Kerry has no idea how the other 99 44/100% live.

hmm. interesting take - then maybe the bush twins' speech was aimed at undecided 50 year olds that see their own daughters in j&b. not at 18 or 22 year olds. i think that makes sense. where did you get 44/100? personally, i would have reduced it to 11/25. :-) (besides, how often do you see people walking around saying "there is a 400/800 chance that it will rain tomorrow....") |
