Jeanna Bush's Secret Hideaway

I must profess that I love it when major news organizations/media outlets have their "National Enquierer" moments.

Such is the case with today's "Washington Post," which reports that apparently first daughter Jeanna Bush apparently said 'yes' to Henry Hager at the Inn at Bay Ledge in Bar Harbor, Maine. They even have a note to 'prove' it.

I am a bit surprised this is getting as much coverage as my 'favorite couple' Tom and Katie, incidentally Katie Holmes was in a movie called "First Daughter"-before she met Mr. Cruise, but hey now that Paris and Lindsay are back in rehab, someone has to fill the gossip pages.........

Henry Hager is the son of former Virginia lt. governor John Hager, who I met when he spoke at the Massanutten Military Academy in Woodstock, Va., when I was a reporter some seven years ago. I did not get around to telling him I was a Democrat, but then again that would have been unprofessional.

John Hager was lt. gov. when Jim Gilmore was governor. Some of you may recall that Gilmore recently tried to become the Republican nominee for the presidency, but he quickly came to realize that fringe Democratic candidate Cong. Dennis Kucinich was even getting more coverage than him!

The note from Jeanna Bush that "The Post" found out about says the following, for those of you who really, really want to know:

"Thanks so much. It's an amazing, beauttiful inn, and WE had such a wonderful, memorable time."

One great thing about the world we now live in is that while the inn released this note, they refuse to say if the first daughter and Mr. Hager actually stayed there....together. Hmmm.

For the record, Henry is 29 and Jeanna Bush is 25. I think it might actually be a good thing for the president if his daughter got pregnant before the wedding date...it looks like he needs a distraction!
