It's funny that somehow it is not a fair question to ask politicians who support a war, why aren't you willing to pay the ultimate sacrifice? The people who bring up the Kerry daughter or Chelsea Clinton obligation to serve are right, especially if those daughters support the carnage in Iraq. To my knowledge they do not. I'm not sure that Jenna Bush does either. It is fair to ask these girls whether or not they should serve given Bush, Kerry and Clinton's support of the war. The parents can't force the children to serve anyway. Not that they would. One more thing, Bush as initiator of the war holds more responsibility than the weaklings who wouldn't stand up to him, but a vote for Hillary would be a vote to continue more of the same lies and coverups.

So why is it that Chelsea Clinton is not in Iraq fighting for the War her Momma voted for?

Oh that's right, she's making 6 figures with her History degree working for a wallstreet financial outfit. Code for corporate pay-off to the Clinton's. Interesting isn't it? That someone with a HISTORY degree is offered 6 figures to help a big money financial company? I think we can all see through that one right? Lets pay off the daughter and get influence with the Senator Clinton and former president Clinton! Some day that may give the old company influence in the Whitehouse if Hillary gets in!

Now why is it that the Media and the Clintons don't want any press on Chelsea? Could it be they don't want to expose the corporate pay-offs to the Clinton family the good old "influence peddling" via the child scam? Or are the Clintons ashamed of the fact that their daughter didn't go to Iraq and fight for the War that mom voted for and supported?

You see, it's all nonsense. Young ladies for the most part are not raised with a mind set to be a warrior, not in the US. It matters little if Chelsea is being paid 6 figures for having the name Clinton and not fighting in Iraq or if a Bush girl is selling books as first daughter and not fighting it Iraq. Or if the Kerry daughter is not fighting in Iraq.

The hate and propaganda the left is putting forward here is disgusting. Is that what it means to be a liberal? To pump hate and propaganda? This does none of us any good. Not those that wallow in and are radicalized by the hate and propaganda and not the rest of the nation.

Why isn't Chelsea Clinton in Iraq?

Oh that's right, she turned her History degree into a 6 figure salary on Wallstreet. Another corporate payoff to the Clintons. Like they need to pay 6 figures to hire the expertise of a fresh history major in a financial firm. LAUGH.

No wonder the Clinton's have forbidden the press to report on Chelsea. No need to focus on how Clinton's line their pockets from corporate payoffs and influence peddling. And maybe they are embarrassed that she didn't go off and fight for the war her momma voted FOR?

"But if people really thought about it, they would know it's not even a practical question."

Absolutely correct. And anyone who is not living in some sort of fairy tale or dream world would never even bother to ask it.
Jenna is not in Iraq for the same reasons her old man was not in Vietnam. They have way too much to live for to take the risk that some 14 year old kid with a banged up AK-47 might get lucky and end their beautiful existence with a five cent piece of lead. There are plenty of nobody Americans from places like West Virginia or East L.A. who can fill that role. Really now...lets's be perfectly frank. Who's got more to live for than a Bush?

Why??? In WWII the President's sons went to war. So why can't you???? In WWI same story. Guess I am stumped.

Ugly inside and out..just like her father and mother

When you send the Bush twins over make sure Karl Roves kids gets sent also, a proto-typical right wing response, they show thier patriotism in other ways....quite short of giving up your lives for a moronic idiot and his right hand man - shotgun slade, policies made by all the chicken hawks of America!!!!

I swear all republicans read from the same manuscript, because the fact that she didn't voluntarily enlist in the military doesn't mean she can't do so now and fight for this country. In essence, all she and others who support this war from a "great" distance are saying is that their lives mean more than those who are fighting this ridiculous war. And how can they equate staying here in this country talking about the war to those who are living the life on the front line? I don't support this war and I didn't from the start, and in all honesty, I don't have the guts to go over there and fight. Having said that, I really appreciate those who are, and those who have given their life and limb for the protection of this country. I wouldn't dare compare myself to those who have given so much for this country in the name of oil!

On Friday while the heros on capital Hill were busy pointing the finger at the Turks they could have killed two eagles with one stone by taking credit for the Iraqui autogenocide sponsored by the U.S. military and our chosen friends and the complimentary garden variety genocide delegated to mercenary goons. The nice thing about genocide is that it affirms that we are all more alike the different. God deliver us from ourselves.
Vote for Al Gore. Whether he wants to run or not is irrelevant in these troubled times. Flush all that toxic corporate money down the hopper. Give Senators Clinton and Craige first options to lick the bowl.
The last great and reluctant American president was Harry Truman. And look what he did for global warming. Hey, if it wasn't for Harry we wouldn't have known what Condi was talking about. Somebody had to do it.
Of course President Gore's first environmental task would be to cleanup all the "deep do-do" left behind in the Whitehouse by the "Great Imposter" and his "Grand Inquisitor". Hell, we don't even need to waste paper and electicity on the next election. Just make President Gore take his rightful turn.

If that is so Jenna, then why aren't you doing that.
Having a good time in Argentina is not working with UNICEF.
Listen. You have to comprehend that your father made a choice to invade Iraq. Over 4000 American soldiers have died. Over 600,000 Iraqis have died.
All we read about you and your sister is that the both of you are having a party somewhere. Not that you are working for UNICEF.
Now, it comes out that you wrote a book. Boy, you must have had alot of time on your hands between the parties.
What your father has done will not go away for a long time. I hope you plan on putting years into UNICEF.

Easy question. Because if we are going to lose a first daughter to terrorism, we want it to be one of the ugly ones first. Amy or Chelsea will do just fine.

I've known 8 year olds that have more intelligent conversation than Jenna.

After numerous rounds of "We don't even know if Osama is still alive," Osama himself decided to send George W. Bush a letter in his own handwriting to let the President know he was still in the game.

Bush opened the letter and it appeared to contain a single line of coded message:

370HSSV-0773H

Bush was baffled, so he e-mailed it to Condi Rice. Condi and her aides had no clue either, so they sent it to the FBI.

No one could solve it at the FBI so it went to the CIA, then to the NSA.

With no clue as to its meaning they eventually asked Britain's MI-6 for help. Within a minute MI-6 called the White House with this reply, "Tell the President he's holding the message upside down."

Jenna dear your not listening to your daddy. Real American patriotic heros have to lay down their lives, because this country is threatened by terrorists.

Or maybe Jenna dear your daddy's a sociopathic liar and you know that this country is not threatened, and that is why it is "not practical" for you to risk your life for nothing.

Jenna's answer was fair to a bad question. A better question would have been why isn't she serving her country by being in the military. One could preface it by talking about the message it would serve to encourage others. Focusing on service in Iraq made it a lousy question.

Another question would be to get her response to why don't we hear her father making public service announcements encouraging young people to join the military.

I sometimes wonder if a bigger reason behind the decline of the mainstream media is none of them have real life experience. They all get out of college and immediately go to work as journalists.

They seem to lack the capability to analyze. Reminds me in some ways of today's Democratic Party (and I'm a Dem).

And it's not fair to blame the Bush twins for the sins of their father. It's his war, not theirs, his presidency, not theirs.
