Breaking: Jenna Bush Is Secretly Engaged!
http://celebrity.blogdig.net/archives/articles/March2007/13/Breaking__Jenna_Bush_Is_Secretly_Engaged_.html

In breaking unsubstantiated gossip, we're hearing that first daughter Jenna Bush is about to be secretly engaged to her longterm boyfriend (and onetime Karl Rove intern, Henry Hager). And, according to our tipster, you heard it here first, "even before the paparazzi breaks it!" Here's more about Jenna's (unconfirmed) weekend plans:

    Jenna Bush is getting engaged this weekend?Henry Hager is on spring break and in South America visiting Jenna. His parents are coming this weekend and the Bushes' will be finishing up their South America tour and joining on their way back for the weekend....They want to get married on the ranch in Texas?.can you imagine the security at that event?


Screw the security, we're far too busy imagining the open bar! After all, Jenna always was the "wild child" of the Bush clan, and given her highly publicized drinking track record (which inspired such unforgettable headlines as "Jenna And Tonic") we can only hope they have enough free booze to satisfy Babs, W and the entire state of Texas. And after those freeflowing nuptials, we'll wager that George H. W. Bush won't be the only family member with a bad case of dehydration the next morning.

Let us be the first to wish you congratulations, Jenna. It seems like only yesterday that you were dirty-dancing with Fabian Basabe and now, suddenly, you're a buxom author on the eve of her (secret!( engagement. ..............

33. Speaking of that, I always wondered if her "emergency appendectomy," in December of 2000...
...was really a quickie abortion. If you will recall, the Chimp couldn't even be persuaded to cut short his Florida vacation, to be at her bedside and, instead, left Pickles to deal with the situation all by her lonesome.

The whole thing just pinged my radar, for some reason.

6. 'Spose Jenna showed Mom & Dad the motel she and Babs
got tossed from?
Anybody want to wager how many times Jenna's gonna be married?
Or shouldn't someone start a pool on when we'll hear the words "Jenna's filing for divorce" in the papers?

16. Knocked Up ---Dan Baird
Well I did not go to church last Sunday
'Cos my sins I need not confess
With your daddy standing at the pulpit
I just figured staying home was best

Your physique is swelling and your waistline's telling
Everybody knows that it's mine
I guess the word's got around this old one store town
And your preacher daddy, he ain't blind

Chorus) Well you got knocked up
And I got locked up
I guess you'd say that we both got screwed
Well you got locked out
And I got knocked out
And I guess you're gonna miss a lot of school

Well you looked a damn sight older
That night upon the hill
And if I'd knowed what I know well I would've let you go
But you said that you was on the pill

Well your uncle, he's the town sherriff
Your granddaddy he's the county judge
And I can't see a way that I'll see the light of day
With your whole family holding a grudge

Chorus) Well you got knocked up
And I got locked up
I guess you'd say that we both got screwed
Well you got locked out
And I got knocked out
And I guess you're gonna miss a lot of school

Well your family's got the shotgun ready
I can hear those church bells chime
Well I may not be ready for a wedding darling
But I know that I'm not ready to die!

Chorus) Well you got knocked up
And I got locked up
I guess you'd say that we both got screwed
Well you got locked out
And I got knocked out
And I guess you're gonna miss a lot of school
And I guess you're gonna miss a lot of school
And I guess you're gonna miss a lot of school

14. here they are!



......... we did some Googling to find out what Henry's been up to. And it turns out that when he isn't visiting trendy watering holes with Jenna, he's a "Policy Analyst" at the Department of Commerce. I don't know exactly which policies he analyzes, but he does stand-in for his boss, Carlos Gutierrez (the Secretary of the Commerce) at meetings of the President's Committee for People with Intellectual Disabilities.

And in a strange coincidence, Henry's dad John Hagar is also a member of this committee --but as we know, nepotism is so hated by the White House that it discloses CIA sources and methods to fight it, so we are sure that his father's position and connections have nothing to do with Henry's prestigious job or assignment.

a big wedding will bring the shrubs ratings up. Just glad it won't be at the White House. Interesting though...I read somewhere the twins hated the ranch. * said he put in the pool to keep them from whining.

27. Those people have been spending a lot of time in South America...
...lately. Haven't they? Buying aquifers in Paraguay, partying in Montevideo.

You know, I think the entire extended Bush clan would be more comfortable in South America! Maybe we should help them to live in proper ex-Nazi style in the South American capital of their choice? Asuncion may be the best choice, since they already own so much of the country. Maybe this what they already have in mind? They know that in a couple more years they won't be welcome here anymore? Should we encourage that?

Nah... I wouldn't wish that clan upon anyone. We'll have to find another way to rid ourselves of these vampires. Exile in Gilroy?

39. The sociopaths think we're stupid and we forget. That's their political philosophy and
I bet they think a wedding would be another distraction to send our way. After all, there will be a blonde young woman involved...

52. He's likely not, though. It'll be some limited video, is my guess.
The RANCH is the venue because you can hear sirens AND chanters if you're standing in the Rose Garden. It's about the only place they can have the event without disruption from demonstrators, unless they go to the other ranch...in PARAGUAY.

It won't get the result that a live feed might--like the wedding of Di and that Big Eared Cruel Freak did.

Gee, who will make a bundle putting their faces on the tea towels?? That's the way it works in the UK!! Ashtrays, mugs, pins, teacups, tea towels....!!

They'll have it in the Fall or next Spring when Shrub's numbers are at their lowest. MAybe we can impeach him before they pull off a wedding there.

Of course, the last WH wedding didn't help Nixon.
