Jenna Bush Likes Safe Sex
Breaks With Daddy Over AIDS Policy
Jenna Bush may love her father, President Bush, but she’s not loving his HIV/AIDS policies. In a piece on Ms. Bush’s new AIDS-centric book, Ana’s Story, Newsweek’s Lorraine Ali writes:
Safe sex is encouraged through-out her new book, even though the Bush administration’s hotly contested HIV-prevention campaign was built around a staunch “abstinence only” message. “In Africa my dad’s policies are pretty much in line with mine, but not domestically,” says Bush, referring to her father’s ABC (abstain, be faithful, use a condom) policy in Africa. “But it’s a personal decision. All of us want our kids to be safe, and there’s no doubt that condoms make our kids safe…It’s important they stay protected and protect others.”
But what about marriage?!

What a revolting photo of that Bush stinkfish!
We almost need a clothespin on our nose to look at it!
Yuck!
I don’t quite understand the attacks on the Bush twins, what exactly have they done that is so bad, apart from being born into the Bush family? (I admit I know little about them, so if they have done something apart from be party girls turned whatever they are now, please enlighten me).
C’mon, guys. I’ll be the first one to bash on the Crook in Chief, but Jenna’s definitely not the same girl as she was in the past. She’s making a name for herself as an activist and has, from all impressions, turned into a much classier, more refined young lady than her pedigree warrants. Cut her some slack, yo?
“I don’t quite understand the attacks on the Bush twins, what exactly have they done that is so bad, apart from being born into the Bush family?”
They’re acting just like their daddy and granddaddy did before they became right wing douchebags making the lives of law abiding, tax paying citizens miserable. Call the attacks on them a preemptive strike.
Who are the Bush twins?
try having your Saturday night ruined because the Bush Twins decide to take camp in a gay club, with secret service everywhere (yes, some of the secret service is damn hot, and the Agent Smith look works well) but as the Twins get more drunk, they get more obnoxious, run into everyone and screaming “don’t you know who i am?” whenever something doesn’t go their way… making fools out of themselves…
then imagine them doing that all over the world… most recently, when they were asked to leave Argentina…. (where one Jenna “lost her purse”).
they just look bad, they act worse, and they show the tackiest of America to the rest of the world… and all with diplomatic immunity and a warped sense of entitlement.
But shouldn’t we be encouraging what would seem to be a change for the better? They were very young when they were party girls, I’d hate to be judged now by what I was like as a kid. And obviously their upbringing was deficient with Bush for a father, but maybe they are learning to think for themselves?
argentina’s “incident” was last year (2006) when they were both 24. they are learning the ways of politics and of privilege, i will never fault them for that. i would drink too if bush was my father.
i think (for me) it would be nice to see some content, change, realization… jail time would help. but being party girls without any recompense, responsibility, or accountability… and now she’s an authority on HIV/AIDS? what kind of example is THAT setting??
you can’t go from one extreme to the other in under a year and expect people to take you seriously.
I wonder if Jenna & Babs should talk to Tricia or Julie Nixon on this one. They’re reaaaally going to need the advice on how to deal when the world hates your daddy.
Safe sex is a personal decision when you and I make it–when Bush makes it, its public policy
