Orange

Wearing orange-colored clothes can prevent you from being the target of a hunting accident by Dick Cheney. The University of Texas Longhorns, this year’s NCAA Division I-A champions, visited White House yesterday. George. W. Bush (left), White House spokesperson Scott McClellan (center), and White House deputy chief of staff Karl Rove showed up wearing orange ties. McClellan said jokingly, “We are wearing orange ties not because we are afraid of an accidental shooting, but because we want to welcome the Longhorns.” Is it a sophisticated joke designed to turn the tide of public opinion?
