WH Pool Report: Send Guy Trebay If That's What They Really Care About Edition
In this White House pool report: The Jenna-and-Barb fashion watch continues. Because it is the most important issue facing our country today.
Jenna and Barbara, each carrying brown leather handbags, strode toward Air Force One with their father in a light breeze and bright sunshine. Jenna, walking behind POTUS, was wearing a turquoise top with brown slacks. Barbara, walking in stiletto heels to POTUS's right, was wearing a black skirt that flared stylishly longer in the back, with a blue top covered by a white sweater-like article with a blue fringe.
Full report after the jump.

Scott gaggled (see transcript), and here are some highlights:
Bush will get a briefing on the 9/11 commission's report from co-chairmen
Hamilton and Keane Wednesday afternoon at the White House and receive a copy of
the report Thursday morning.
On the Sandy Berger investigation, Scott said all questions should be directed to the Justice Department. "What we know is what has been reported in the news media," Scott said.
Jenna and Barbara Bush will begin campaigning together on behalf of their father beginning as soon as this evening in Missouri. Campaign spokesman Scott Stanzel said the two women will be campaigning soon, but would not confirm an event tonight, as Scott McClellan did on the plane. Stay tuned however. Stanzel, who spoke to your pooler below the right wing while waiting for POTUS to deplane, said he'd look into it.
