Odd, I never noticed this. But Ted Kennedy's face always looks blood red on my TV.

I watched the press conference on Fox with DirecTV. I didn't notice any problems with the tie.

Okay, but I suggest you look for a 4:3 ratio 32 inch HDTV; some DVD's play their Widescreen subtitles in the lower black bar.

Don't use one of these as a necktie.

W *singing*:
I closed my eyes, drew back the curtain
To see for certain what dems thought they knew
Far, far away the dems were keeping
But the world was peeping -- any tie will do!
I wore my tie with little white dots
Just like the good zots, wonderful and due
And in the truck their eyes were hazing
The dots were phasing -- any tie will do.

Yeah, he walked out and I saw the tie and just did one of those "head slap" takes. I've never been on TV in my life, and I would know better than to wear that tie. Doesn't anybody check these things at the White House?
That said, I liked just about everything else about the night. Except the last time he got the "any regrets" line. I would have turned that around and said that if I did have any, I would not state them in that forum, since that would become the story, which would be counterproductive. If they asked the question again, I would have broken out with Sinatra's "My Way".

Nobody should ever wear herringbone anything when on TV. It REALLY goes wild with the pixels. Norm Van Lier, former player with the Chicago Bulls, does commentary for them now - it drives me crazy when he wears herringbone-pattern sportcoats.

REPORTER: Mr. President, you said during the debates in 2000 that your worst mistake was trading Sammy Sosa. What would you say your worst mistake has been during your presidency?
PRESIDENT BUSH: Wearing this trippy tie.

I thought everyone knew by now that you don't wear houndstooth, checks, tiny stripes or anything the camera reads as houndstooth, checks, or tiny stripes, when dressing for TV. The latest no-no is yellow teeth. All the television professionals have pearly whites but many of those they interview haven't had a whitening job and look so very ... English.

Well, actually, there were several FREEPERs that joked about that on the live threads. The best one
The tie is to hypnotize morons. The left will believe.

Perhaps this would have been better...
P.S. I just love the look on his face in this picture. It is like he already know something...because he does.
