"Like, our Dad is totally the right person to be President, like, fer sure!"
There is a new reason to hate George W. Bush. Sure, the stolen election, the war, the other war, the lies, the complete lack of respect for the English language, the refusal to simply die - all of that was already sufficient reason. But all of this pales in comparison with his responsibility for contributing to the birth and upbringing of Jenna and Barbara Bush, otherwise known as the Sweet Valley High Bush Twins.
They used to be a sub point to the general idiocy that is George W. Bush. They, after all, "aren't very political" and were "trying to stay out of the spotlight" during their college years. They managed to drunkenly stumble into that light a couple of times but since most college kids drink, often times to excess, no one cared. Sure it was funny and highlighted the drunken college days of our current President but for the most part we were spared from how truly annoying the Bush twins were but deep down we knew, we knew. Now, suddenly, they are political and have come into the spotlight to help win the 'hip younger crowd' who are disillusioned with politics. Cause, like, they're disillusioned too, like, you know? Who else can relate to hip, disillusioned youth like two girls whose parents just happen to be really wealthy and powerful and managed to get their two personality-less daughters into decent schools? I know all of my hipster friends are just foaming at the mouth hoping for an invite to a private Bush Twin election party!
Really though the Bush twins are only 'hip' in the same way Paris Hilton is hip; they bought their way there! At the core of these two boring, rich girls personality is what is at the core of every boring, rich girl; a certain hyper-sexuality and perchance to become obsessed with parties. Which is all fine and good, I could care less, but I'm sick of Paris Hilton and the Bush twins status as hipsters. Wearing super expensive clothes and liking Outkast does not make you cool, it does not make you any hipper than the millions of other people who listen to one of the most popular records of the year! Face it; you just have more money than the rest of us. Seriously, do you really think any self-respecting 'hipster' would let themselves read this in front of the entire fucking country (assuming they didn't pull this brilliance out of their own ass)?!?
To recap: George W. Bush should have been sterilized to never allow the birth of these twins to happen, the twins really, really suck at public speaking and surely don't realize that the real elite is never written about in Vanity Fair. If any hipster, like Robb, has sex with them it will be a purely ironic event.
