Bush Criticizes Chelsea Coverage nytimes.com

I got to wonder here. Is GWB going to be dead meat with the red meat crowd? Is he the kindest, gentlest Bush? Is he taking those New Testament verses oft ignored by the inerrant Bible crowd all too seriously? Is he taking this "compassionate conservatism thing too far? Time will tell.

Gov. George W. Bush joined President Clinton and his wife in voicing disappointment over a magazine cover story on Chelsea Clinton, saying concerns about his own teen-age daughters remain a factor as he considers running for president.

''If the president and Mrs. Clinton are disappointed that their daughter's on the cover of the magazine, I'm disappointed for them,'' Bush said Tuesday.

''I'm beginning to understand better how teen-agers feel. It's a sensitive age. I respect their desire for privacy. I'm sorry it happened,'' Bush said.

Last week, the Clintons said they were ''profoundly saddened'' by People magazine's decision to do a cover story on Chelsea.

Bush and his wife, Laura, have twin daughters, who are 17.

''My daughters matter a lot to me. I love them more than life,'' the Republican governor said. ''My most important job is father. So I'm concerned, as I say, about the meat-grinder of national politics.

''I don't think one magazine cover is going to be the deciding factor; I think the issue's much bigger than that. But that's a consideration.''

Bush repeated that remains undecided about a presidential bid next year.
