Open Letter to Barbara and Jenna Bush (GQ)
We're wondering: Do you worry that Dad's idea to implement a progressive price index to reduce the cost of Social Security will hurt long-term benefits for working Americans? Just kidding! Who wants another shot of Goldschläger? Whooo-hooo!

You guys sure were fun when your daddy took office. Finally: America had first daughters who could do a respectable keg stand.

The comedy began when you both got busted for underage drinking. Then, Barbara, rumor has it you slinked into a naked party at Yale. Jenna, you face-planted at a frat bash and wound up in The National Enquirer. That was awesome!

But we have to admit, as you've gotten older, those antics have worn thin. Consider that speech you guys gave at the Republican National Convention. We didn't expect FDR's "Four Freedoms," but who wrote that thing? Bijou Phillips? This was a convention speech—it sounded like it was written in the bathroom of the Hustler Club. And by the way, when are you two going to get jobs? As we're writing this, neither of you has one. Chris Klein is busier than you are.

3. I have no respect for either one of them
Before they turned 21 and before they decided to get into the political arena in last year's campaign I made it my personal rule to make them off limits.

Now however, they strike me as the type of young ladies that I have become all too familiar with for the last 10 years: the overprivilleged sorority girl with little interest in anything other than socializing, materialism and parties.

Don't even get me started about George "Pea" Bush, who is known to have political aspirations of his own. He could be sticking a feather in his cap for a future campaign if he would enlist in his uncle's war, rather than lawyering for corporations.

7. Or by some six graders.
They appeared to have spent all of five minutes on their address to the convention. Nothing of substance -- just like dad.

"...Accomplish a great feat. Enough with the namby-pamby European tours. How about swimming the English Channel, climbing Mount Everest, or opening a case of Red Stripe with your butt crack? Okay, so you can already do that last one..."
