3. fair game, but not worth targeting - certainly not for personal reasons
at least for being wild and boozy in college. Now if they do something politically stupid on the other hand...well, it certainly won't measure up to any of the stupid things their dad has done....

6. Although
The "like father like daughters." jokes LEAP to mind we should probably go the high ground and NOT go after them. That a hole we dont want to get caught in.

7. LUKE, IT'S A TRAP!
1) Put daughters in public political spotlight.

2) Wait for someone to take the bait.

3) Attack them for "playing politics with a man's famlily!"

10. Only in a nation without a Free Press could they say that
Edited on Thu May-20-04 04:55 PM by tom_paine
And Alexandra Kerry's breasts wouldn't even be brought up by our faithful Pravda Whores as precedent. Like it NEVER HAPPENED, 1984-style.

Maybe what you say is true, yibbiehobba, but I am sick and fucking TIRED of worrying about what the Bushevik Sub-Media and the Corproate Pravda that lazily floats in it's scummy wake will say about us.

NEWS FLASH: They will trash us NO MATTER WHAT WE DO OR SAY! They will repeat lies without historical referent, hell, they'll even fabriucate them themselves (or regurgitate it verbatim from the morning's RNC Blastfax)

Sick and fucking TIRED.

I could give a shit what Imperial Pravda says about us!

11. The only serious interest I'm aware of them having is alcohol.
They're 22 yrs old and both already have criminal records. Or is underage possession and consumption just misdemeanors? I'm sure whichever it is, they're grandpoppy will take care of it for them.

12. cmon a lot of us have tried to get alcohol
when we were underage. Didn't one of them go to rehab? Sure it is easy to criticize them for their father's power... but that is common for all children of power. I'm sure they have some redeeming features... the kids of Reagan were actually pretty liberal. They do seem like too easy a target, save your ire for the real thing.

14. I' guess I lack the ability to articulate
but what I was trying to say is that their drinking escapades is the only thing I've ever heard about them. I do think if they were involved in anything productive prior to now, we would have heard about it. For them to allow their parents to exploit them for their sex appeal (they're bing used to attract the young adult male vote)is dispicable.

Inquiring minds want to know.
