Finally a member of the press has the guts to ask Bush about the "bulge"! Charlie Gibson brought it up in his interview taped for "Good Morning America" today. So Bush cannot seem to part with his "lucky" ill-tailored shirt he wears again and again??? :dunce:
Gibson: What the hell was that on your back, in the first debate?" (how about in all three debates, Charlie?)
Bush (chuckling): "Well, you know, Karen Hughes and Dan Bartlett
have rigged up a sound system -- "
Gibson: "You're getting in trouble -- "
Bush: "I don't know what that is. I mean, it is, uh, it is, it's a -- I'm embarrassed to say it's a poorly tailored shirt."
Gibson: "It was the shirt?"
Bush: "Yeah, absolutely." (George cannot tell a lie, he cut down the cherry tree!)
Gibson: "There was no sound system, there was no electrical signal?
There was --"
Bush: "How does an electrical -- please explain to me how it works
so maybe if I were ever to debate again I could figure it out.
I guess the assumption was that if I was straying off course
they would, kind of like a hunting dog, they would punch a
buzzer and I would jerk back into place. I -- it's just
absurd."
