As President Bush took a question Thursday in the White House Rose Garden about scandals involving his Attorney General, he remarked, “I’ve got confidence in Al Gonzales doin’ the job.”
Simultaneously, a sparrow flew overhead and left a splash on the President’s sleeve, which Bush tried several times to wipe off.
Deputy White House Press Secretary Dana Perino promptly put the incident through the proper spin cycle, telling ABC News, “It was his lucky day… everyone knows that’s a sign of good luck.” (Source: ABC)
Everyone knows that’s a sign of good luck? Huh? Since when?
Seems a passing sparrow took an opportunity to weigh in on what the President had to say.
