Jenna Bush Wedding

The New York Post has received a preview of a soon-to-be released book by author Ronald Kessler, in which he claims that the Bush twins, Jenna and Barbara, were a “nightmare.” Titled  In the President’s Secret Service: Behind the Scenes With Agents in the Line of Fire and the Presidents They Protect, Kessler says that the Bush twins would constantly give the agents a run for their money with their antics.

Among some of his allegations, Kessler states that “Jenna would purposely try to lose her protection by going through red lights or by jumping in her car without telling agents where she was going. As a result, in a total waste of manpower, the Secret Service kept her car under surveillance so agents could follow her.” He also recalls a time when Jenna and her boyfriend-turned-husband, Henry Hager, were at a bar and Hager became so inebriated that he attempted to start a brawl with another patron. Secret Service agents had to step in so that violence was avoided.

Kessler doesn’t limit his tell-all to the Bush years. He also dishes on Vice President Spiro Agnew, whom he claims had affairs while espousing family values to the nation. Kessler also lets it slip that President Obama still smokes frequently even though he says has cut back significantly. Hmmm. Anyone think that Kessler will ever be allowed near the White House again? 

None of Kessler’s stories are that surprising. Given that Jenna and Barbara grew up in the White House, it’s to be expected that they would act out a bit. What teen wants a chaperone around 24/7? In the end, the two girls have turned into lovely women so their former transgressions in the White House can be forgiven.
