Unenlisted sisters. A regular reader emails to inform us that the Bush twins have plans other than defending the United States against Iraq's WMD (Newsweek):

Now that the first Daughters have graduated from college (Barbara from Yale and Jenna from the University of Texas), what's next? First up: a taste of the spotlight. The two have already sat for an interview and photo shoot for Vogue—the first of many interviews they'll do this summer. Then, after a European vacation with friends, the twins will return to Washington to work for Dad. They have their choice of jobs: pitching in at the suburban Virginia HQ, helping at a field office or perhaps hitting the campaign trail. The president is elated about their deciding to join the family business, but are the Bushes nervous about the increased scrutiny of their daughters? "You bet," says one White House official.

Why weren't 788 American soldiers asked to do a photo shoot for Vogue? Oh, right, it's because they're dead.
