Jenna Bush Says She's Also Counting The Minutes Until Bush Leaves

Girl Gone Mild

by Skip Hollandsworth

This is the same Jenna Bush who was cited three times for underage drinking? Who was a fixture in the tabloids and a punch line in every late-night talk show monologue? That was then. Today, the president’s daughter is all grown up, teaching in an inner-city public school, soon to be married, and even sooner to be the best-selling author of a serious book about AIDS. And yes, she’s counting the minutes until January 20, 2009.

I assume the Secret Service agents will arrive first, checking out everyone in sight. But suddenly the door opens, and in she comes, all alone, dressed casually in an inexpensive gray dress with a matching cotton sweater, her sandy-blond hair held back with a rubber band.

“So is this okay? Mexican food?” asks Jenna Bush. “I figured it might make you feel more at home.”

It’s a mild July evening in Washington, D.C., and Jenna has agreed to meet me for dinner at the upscale Oyamel Cocina restaurant, between the Capitol and the White House, where Jenna is, as she likes to say, “living with the folks.” When I ask her why her Secret Service detail is not with her, she shrugs and says, “I made them drop me off at the corner. I don’t want to cause a scene.”

5. Good for her!
This backs-up my theory about evil. That it often skips a generation ... ;-)

I wonder if we will see Jenna running for political office at some point in the future.

Who says political dynasties always have to be a bad thing? :eyes:

6. I hope she has one of these.
It makes it so much easier to keep track of the count.
