Hm...One hand sometimes in pocket, other hand pointing...yea...Thats what Kennedy did too..I like it actuallyOriginally posted by Njorl
I always liked the thumb-pointing. They found out during the Clinton presidency that the public really hated it when Clinton emphasized something by pointing his finger. It then became official Republican policy to point with the thumb. I am so happy to be ruled by such geniuses .

Bush's speech covered a range of topics, including foreign policy, the economy, and national security. He also addressed specific issues such as immigration reform and healthcare.
Some viewers have noticed that Bush's eyes appeared to be drooping or looking down during parts of the speech. This could be due to natural aging or fatigue, as giving a speech can be physically and mentally draining.
It is not uncommon for people to have certain eye movements or tics when speaking in public, and this is likely the case with Bush. There is no evidence to suggest that his eye movements had any specific meaning or intention.
While some viewers may have found Bush's eye behavior distracting, it is important to focus on the content of his speech rather than any physical mannerisms. Evaluating the message and ideas being conveyed is more important than analyzing body language.
The media did not extensively cover or comment on Bush's eye behavior during the speech. Some news outlets briefly mentioned it, but overall the focus was on the content of his speech and the reactions to his policies and proposals.
