Bush gives protesters the finger
This story definitely rates an 11 on the coolness scale – I got flipped off by George W. Bush. A few guys went out to protest when the Bush campaign rolled into their town:
At the front of this second bus was The W himself, waving cheerily at his supporters on the other side of the highway. Adam, Brendan, and I rose our banner (the More Trees, Less Bush one) and he turned to wave to our side of the road. His smile faded, and he raised his left arm in our direction. And then, George W. Bush, the 43rd president of the United States of America, extended his middle finger.
Read that last sentence again.
I got flipped off by George W. Bush.A ponytailed man standing next to us confirmed the event, saying, “I do believe the President of the U.S. just gave you boys the finger.”
Beautiful. And on a related note, the fun of driving with the Secret Service riding shotgun.
