Festivities low-key as Jenna Bush marries

CRAWFORD, TEXAS: Jenna Bush couldn't see herself getting married at the White House surrounded by antique furniture and oil portraits of presidents.

Yeah, for Jenna!
She kept it out of the White House. This is HER day, not her dad's.
I wish them all of the Luck in the World.

Thank you Jenna for keeping your dad out of the WH this weekend. The sooner he stays on his ranch permanently clearing brush the better.

Jimmy cracked corn...most of the nation could care less about this union. Nice that in the middle of the U.S. problems, the president can "give his daughter" away.

Yes, you are something wicked. Every Father has the wonderful opportunity to give his daughter away at her wedding. He is not only the President, he is a Father and a human being. You must get control of your jealous anger.

It's not unusual.

LBJ did it... Nixon did it...

Carter and Clinton couldn't find anyone who would take their daughters.........

Amy Carter was 13 when her father's term ended. Chelsea Clinton was 20.

Too bad none of Mr. Reagan's children had White House weddings. Think of the circus that would have been. Or what they would have married!

No problem in the Way Down Yonder. She could've lifted a piece of White House stationery & forged the old man's signature. Hell, she could've gotten Uncle Billy drunk & had him forge it.

But, again, who would...?

"Jenna" is Arabic for heaven. The Bushes are all good friends with the Saudi royal family. Was Osama best man? Why are all the conspriacy theorists asleep at the wheel?
