Doesn't Bush have daughters?


Is it just me or does George W. Bush have twin daughters. If he does, you wouldn't know it from this movie. I understand that his children may not be necessary to the plot, however if Stone is going to elaborate on his version of Bush's relationship with his wife and father, why not let us in on his version of Bush's relationship with his daughters, or at least acknowledge them as being a part of his life?

Sorry, but I fear you must have seen this on a commercial TV station, severely cut.
In the Dvd version I have just watched, (at about 2hrs length), they most certainly were there, several times. OK, not in great detail, and not adding hugely to the story, but frequent 'walk on' spots to show him as a family man, plus frequent shots of phots on desk etc.
few visible scars

I watched the full DVD version and didn't see them once, not even in a photo. Furthermore, there are no actresses listed as playing them in the credits, at least not on this website.

I'm watching it now, and it showed them sitting next to Barbara in the scene where it was announced Papa Bush lost the election for a second term.

In the scene where Bush is celebrating his 40th birthday he gets a phone call from his father who ends up asking him to help with the campaign in Washington DC as Jeb is tied up in Florida. Part of that conversatsion W is asked how his daughters are.

After he goes back to blow out the candles there is a cut scene where there is a picture of the twins.

Not much but they are mentioned.

If all apects of someone's life was included in a movie it would take a very long time to watch it.

Yes, dumya had twin spawn, but they were SO PERFECT there was nothing they could show about them that would make them look any more perfect. And, of course, dumya was THE PERFECT father. LOL

I nailed Barbara in 2001. She's hot as hell.
