U.S. and Argentine media reported that one of President Bush's 24-year-old twin daughters had her purse stolen while being guarded by the Secret Service during a visit here.
ABC News, citing unidentified law enforcement reports, reported on its Web site Tuesday that Barbara Bush's purse and cell phone were taken while she was dining in a Buenos Aires restaurant.
La Nacion newspaper, citing anonymous government sources, said in its online edition early Wednesday that one of Bush's daughters had her purse taken Sunday afternoon in the popular tourist district of San Telmo.
A pair of thieves removed the purse from under a table while Secret Service agents stood guard at a distance, La Nacion reported. La Nacion said its sources did not reveal which of the Bush daughters had her purse stolen.

That's some crack Secret Service work there, boys. Now the world is going to see Barbara's birth control pills with the presidental seal on the case.
I wonder if they knew it was Barbara Bush. I mean, there has to be easier purses to steal than one protected by armed guards. Or at least purses with a better risk:reward factor to them. Did they expect to find state secrets? Argentina invasion plans? Uranium? Kathryn Blair's phone number on her Friend's Circle?
