Jenna Bush: "It's Not Even A Practical Question" To Ask Why I'm Not In Iraq

Time:

The following Q&A With Jenna Bush is from Time Magazine's weekly 10 Questions feature where readers submit questions online.

Below is a question from Donald Pence, San Francisco about Jenna Bush service in Iraq.

If the war in Iraq is so noble, why aren't you and your sister serving our country there?

Jenna Bush: I understand that point, but there are many ways to serve our country, and I think my skills are better suited for teaching and representing the U.S. in Latin America through unicef. I respect the men and women of our country who are over there fighting. It is an unbelievably selfless thing to do. But if people really thought about it, they would know it's not even a practical question.

OK.
So getting s**t-faced in an Argentinian bar now qualifies as "teaching and representing the U.S. in South America through UNICEF.".
Wow! SIGN ME UP!

The Bush clan is an embarrassment to America.

Yo yo FF55....the Clinton clan as you label them, do not go around calling everyone who disagrees with them unpatriotic or unamerican so your point is so "unpractical".....

You really have the audacity to spell it with a 'K'???

Chelsea Clinton is a bright educated adult, unlike the hard drinking beach strippers known as the Bush Twins.
