Police: Bush daughter uses fake ID for alcohol
By Natalie Gott Associated Press writer

AUSTIN, Texas -- President Bush's 19-year-old twin daughters allegedly tried to buy alcohol at a restaurant, with one using someone else's identification card, police said yesterday.
Police said they received a 911 call Tuesday evening from the manager of Chuy's restaurant who said minors were attempting to purchase alcohol.
Bush's daughters, Jenna and Barbara, "were alleged to have been involved," according to a statement released by Austin police.

Police said Jenna Bush tried to purchase the alcohol using someone else's ID. Barbara did not, police said.

President to sign fake I-D bill

Using or providing false I-D for a non-terror-related crime would carry a two-year sentence.

Bu$h really should not have his daughters campaign for him.

Laura and George are being very irresponsible parents by placing their daughters under so much public scrutiny after the twins had so many run-ins with the law, and are demonstrating a serious lack of "family values" by using their daughters as a campaign vehicle to help elect Bu$h.

Very inconsiderate of George and Laura.

3. What's the pt. of this extra sentencing, since a terrorist act
would have a mandatory sentence already? Maybe it comes in with the "other offenses" category, where the mandatory sentence may not be long enough.
