WASHINGTON – When first lady Laura Bush counseled her twin daughters on how to behave while campaigning with their father, she may have skipped a lesson.

After President Bush got in the back seat of the presidential limousine beside Jenna, the 22-year-old graduate of the University of Texas at Austin smiled through the window at about 10 to 12 news photographers and radio reporters stationed on a platform.

Then she stuck her tongue out and began to laugh.

The members of the media laughed with her.

Last week, Laura Bush said she was delighted by her daughters’ decision to campaign and said she told them to “stand up straight and keep your hair out of your eyes.”
