According to a
story in the Salt Lake Tribune,
George W. Bush was amused by the thousands of
demonstrators who turned out to protest the Iraq war during his
visit to Salt Lake.
Utah Sen. Orrin Hatch, who accompanied the president, said the president saw the protesters along the motorcade route.
"[Bush] got a chuckle. He said 'Look, look at all the middle fingers.' Frankly, we ought to show respect to the office and the person regardless of what party they come from."
Frankly, the
President ought to lead by example. Oh, wait; he did that, didn't he?
