WASHINGTON (AFP) - One of US
President George W. Bush's daughters has been robbed of her mobile phone and purse in Argentina, despite her heavy Secret Service protection,
Barbara Bush's purse was snatched at a Buenos Aires restaurant during a night on the town, but the Secret Service agents did not notice, ABC said, citing police sources.
Kim Bruce, spokeswoman for the Secret Service, which provides protection for the president and family, said: "We don't have any comment on that."
The White House did not immediately return telephone calls seeking comment.
Barbara, named for the president's mother, and her twin sister, Jenna, turn 25 Saturday.
The twins were dining in San Telmo, Buenos Aires's picturesque arts and dining neighborhood.
ABC reported that the theft was not the only difficulty the Secret Service faced during the fraternal twins' two-week visit.
One of the agents got into an "altercation" after a night on the town and was beaten, the television news organization said, citing police reports.
What are the odds they find the purse before they find the WMDs in Iraq or Osama?
And what's the deal with the secret service agents getting drunk and beaten. Are they snorting coke with Bush Klan? Incompetence galore.
