Well, at least it wasn’t a ring of power, or fishbones, goblins’ teeth, or wet shells:
A Latin American journalist at a briefing on the president’s trip to the region this week told Bush he wanted to ask the “unofficial” question that he asks all presidents — what does he carry in his pockets?Bush magnanimously answered by pulling out a white handkerchief with a flourish and then rummaged around in both pockets.
And finally, showing that he had nothing to hide, Bush pulled both pants pockets inside out. They were empty.
“Es todo. No dinero,” (“That’s all. No money.”) Bush joked in his own brand of Spanglish. “No wallet, no bolsa (wallet).”
He even showed off his Timex wristwatch, but quickly added: “I’m not supposed to be endorsing products.”
