For those who missed it on the NewsHour last week, check out Roger Mudd’s study of the Bush Blue tie that’s become the favorite political symbol in Washington.
It was a blue that the paint store color charts might call “rock-a-bye blue” or “bassinet blue,” and it was a blue that sent a signal: “I, George Bush, am from Texas. I wear cowboy boots. I wear blue jeans. I talk with a twang. But that doesn’t mean I can’t be sensitive once in a while.”
….Quietly but without hesitation, the men of this administration began to add to their tie racks those blue cravats that branded them as George Bush men.
Since the transcript is a bit lacking without the visuals, here are a few photos.
