ABC Reporter Walks Up to Bush Girls Unchallenged by Secret Service

When I went out to dinner in the Argentine capital the other night, I had no intention of challenging the security net thrown around the first daughters, or even getting a look at Barbara Bush just days after her purse was snatched. And yet, I was able to do both.

At one point, a friend who is a producer for RAI of Italy pulled me aside and asked if I'd heard the rumors that the Bush girls were staying in the fashionable Palermo neighborhood — the same area in which we were dining — and possibly at a new boutique hotel there.

We talked about how insane it would be for them to stay in such an open, super accessible area like Palermo, which is especially popular with foreigners and filled with ex-pats.

I walked to the front door, where I fully expected a security guard stationed there to bar our entrance. Instead, as welcoming as any doorman, he swung the door wide open, and we strolled in and right up to where Barbara was just getting off the computer.

"You're Barbara Bush," I blurted out, extending my hand for a handshake.

2. The right has given the W twins star status

And they are enjoying it with total abandon 100%.

3. Is the SS standing down

when it comes to the Bush family? These reports are almost inviting disaster.

4. They're inviting kidnapping.

10. The only people who

could or would kidnap them are Americans. The average Argentinian sees one more rich tourist.

15. Argentina has been having a growing problem with

kidnappings for money. A rich tourist would be an obvious target.

5. Why don't they have jobs? n/t

6. not having jobs is "hard work"

You know it's baloney when a Bush talks about it a little too much.

11. Why aren't they in Iraq? n/t

7. Did the Bush girls proposition the reporter?

Or did they just ignore him because the reporter was a heterosexual male, and they already had some drinks so why bother with him?

Details! I want details! Were their panties hanging from the Christmas decorations on the walls? Did he trip over any Wild Turkey bottles?

8. Posts 3 and 4... my exact thoughts. What would Chimp do

to stay in power?

9. Just A Thought - The * Daughters Are Becoming Familiarized With....

Argentina because they may be living there soon. Didn't Argentina harbor some Nazi's after WWII. Perhaps this is where * and his family will wind up to avoid the war crimes trials that will be coming.

12. Bush's are different: they are buying in Paraguay

And if the elder Bush paid for it, the IRS should be investigating for tax fraud.

13. This is sad.

Apparently Bush doesn't want to face the political problems that may arise with his children in combat. But allowing any fool access to them in a foreign country causes no concern with him.

14. Probably thought he was their dealer
