Event workers had been told to fire off confetti pods when Bush said, 'God Bless'... his normal closing line. But 5 minutes before the end of his speech, Bush offered a "God Bless" to Arlene Howard, mother of George Howard a Port Authority of New York/New Jersey Police Officer killed in the World Trade Center... BLAM!!!!! Everyone first ducked -- hard -- then looked up to see confetti falling. Bush looked momentarily stunned, then plain unhappy, then just went on with his speech as the confetti rained to the floor of the Verizon Wireless Arena... Developing...
This look was because of the confetti falling and nothing else. He's got to knock it off.
BTW, death threats go with the job. He should be used to that by now.
Weapons of Mass Celebration
Seriously funny.
Howling!
He didn't see the humor at the time, understandably, but he will laugh later I bet.
Thank you.
