Quote by Bill Maher
The Clinton White House today said they would start to give national security and intelligence briefings to George Bush. I don't know how well this is working out. Today after the first one Bush said, 'I've got one question: What color is the red phone?'
Summary
This quote humorously hints at George Bush's potential lack of knowledge or understanding of national security matters during his transition into the presidency. The remark implies that Bush's first question, about the color of the red phone, which traditionally symbolizes direct communication during times of crisis between the president and military officials, reveals his unfamiliarity with key aspects of national security protocol. It highlights the perceived challenges he might face in navigating the complexities of the role and his readiness to handle such critical matters.
