's no secret that George W. Bush has had a tough time of it lately. His approval rating are approaching record lows, due in part to the Iraq War and current economic hard times combined with rising prices of ........pretty much everything.
However, over the weekend, Bush was able step out of the role of Commander in Chief and try on something a bit happier: Father of the Bride.
Jenna Bush, daughter of George and Laura Bush was married in a very elegant and low-key affair on Saturday. Henry Hager had proposed to the first daughter at sunrise on Cadillac Mountain in Acadia National Park in Maine and the two became husband and wife just before sunset on her family's ranch in Crawford, Texas.
"Our little girl Jenna married a really good guy, Henry Hager. The wedding was spectacular, all we could have hoped for," President Bush told reporters afterward. "The weather cooperated nicely and, just as the vows were exchanged, the sun set over our lake... We're mighty blessed."
Jenna is the 22nd child of a president to get married while her father was in office.
