And those.....TWINS!!

For anyone who hasn't seen it yet....you need to go check out the most uncomfortable moment on live television from this years campaign season. Go watch the Bush's twins from last night's convention. It is unbelievable....Who in their right mind let them give this speech??

Here's the link.

This is what conservative's on FOX NEWS said right after, needless to say...they were the most forgiving. Imagine what those babarians at CNN said..

Bill Kristol: "The last half hour did not help, as far as I can tell, Bush's campaign for reelection."

Mort Kondracke: "Those two girls were ditzes. I'm surprised they were allowed on the program."

Fred Barnes: "I think she [Laura] had no place up there or the daughters either....Their mother said they'll be pursuing their own careers. I would advise them to look in some field other than comedy."

And here's what conservative columnist Howard Kurtz wrote in today's Washington Post,

"I don't want to be unfair to Jenna and Barbara. Growing up in a fishbowl isn't easy.
But to paraphrase what Jay Leno said to Hugh Grant after his little escapade with a street hooker: What the hell were they thinking?

And what was the person who vetted their speech thinking? Sex jokes about former first lady Barbara Bush? I've been covering conventions a long time, and this might have been the weirdest moment since George McGovern gave his acceptance speech at 3 a.m. I mean, it looked like a video you would make in your basement, and then show only to your closest friends. To judge by the reaction of the scribes around me, already pumped up by Arnold, it was cringe-inducing. Maybe they were trying to appeal to the Paris Hilton crowd. Imus says he took his hearing aid out until the twins had left the stage."

Damn. Thats just plain rough....Check out the video, it is down right hilarious!

Yeah, putting the girls up there was a bad idea. Although I did get a kick out of their reference to Jenna (I think) getting busted for underage drinking. Hey! Maybe they should've put in some pot references to draw in some more liberals.

But Laura was fine. Not exciting, not Liddy Dole cutesy, just a normal woman. Excellent counterpoint to Thereza.
