A Texan who greeted George W Bush at a Dallas store failed to recognise the dressed down former US president.

Good for Dubya.

Maybe the greeter recognized him, but decided not to bother him. He’s not President anymore.

Sounds like W is shopping at WalMart. Great fishin supplies!

[Joe 6-pack]

No big deal. The MSM failed to recognize him as President for eight years.

[Cletus.D.Yokel]

Just to resurrect one of the “hexes” of the old FR...

Italians! Be gone!

[absolootezer0]

still looks like the president to me.

[absolootezer0]

crap, i put in an AP photo, should probably have you yank that.

[max americana]

As long as he’s happy (and doesn’t have to fight the MSM AKA 5TH COLUMN for the last 8 years), I’m cool with that.

[freespirited]

At any given time, at least one percent of the population doesnt even know who the president is.

Dubya could have run into someone from that group.

[Just A Nobody]

No big deal. The MSM ENEMEDIA, most demonRATS and some republicans failed to recognize him as President for eight years.

Exactly!

How many SS does he have?

They didn’t recognize him because 1) he’s just regular folk and 2) most of that neighborhood didn’t vote for him (I have relatives there who are on a different plane than the rest of us peons.)

Italians! Be gone!

I remember those days. ;-)

[Retired Greyhound]

I would love to run into him. He is a good man. On Jan. 20th my wife and I watch the web stream of his return to Midland rather than the inaugral crap.

We miss W.

[Just A Nobody]

Until 9-11 I had no idea what President Bush looked like.
I was totally apolitical and never watched TV or read the paper.

I sure do miss him now!

[Rome2000]

However, keen-eyed staff soon recognised Mr Bush, not least because he was wearing a jacket emblazoned with the words "George W Bush" as well as the presidential seal.

Har!

[Old Professer]

Don’t worry, you’re all going to land at the same airport.

In your picture, the agent on the right has something on his left (right in the picture) wrist. It is tan and looks to be about the size of one of those old pink erasers.
