One thing I'm curious about.

During the Clinton years there was a tacit agreement that Chelsea was out of
bounds for the media.  On the whole, that agreement persisted.

I had assumed that there would be a similar agreement for Bush's daughters.
Apparently this is not the case.

I can understand the partisans of both sides going after the principle
parties.  I can't imagine any justification for going after the daughters.

Just my $.02...
