"Bono Style"

Following a meeting with his cabinet this morning discussing Hurricane Wilma, President Bush took a few questions from the press. Naturally, none of them had to do with Hurricane Wilma. The first question came from Associated Press WH correspondent Nedra Pickler, who asked about the Valerie Plame leak investigation. While the president may have not loved Nedra’s question, he did find something to compliment her about:

THE PRESIDENT: "Nedra, I also said — this may be the fourth time I've been asked about this, which I appreciate, you're doing your job — I'm not going to comment about it. This is a very serious investigation, and I haven't changed my mind about whether or not I'm going to comment on it publicly. Fine-looking shades you got there."

Pickler: "Thanks, Mr. President. Bono style." (Laughter.)

THE PRESIDENT: "Wait a minute, you don't need to be endorsing any products here in the Cabinet — " (laughter.)
