Bush is giving speech today AT THE ZOO!!
Just heard this from Arundhati Roy on the Rachel Maddow show-- After numerous other venues were rejected for security reasons, Bush is going to give a speech at the ZOO!

Do you think the gorillas will throw feces at him?

15. Hey, that's clearly not Bush.
Those pictures show beings with MUCH more dignity and reserve than he has.

20. Here's a link
The Old Fort where he spoke (yesterday, not today), also houses a zoo. Methinks she was exaggerating just a bit when she said the speech actually took place in the zoo. Oh well, it's a fun idea.
