CNN International Chyron: "Bush Resigns" & Bush's Famous slip of tongue

Are "typos" are a reflection of "wishful thinking?" ....



An employee who was typing wrote "BUSH RESIGNS" and probably he meant to say "BLAIRE resigns" although if i was him i'd mean it the first rather than the latter.




According to the source:

This appeared on screen for 12 seconds. (Two seconds before, President Bush had
appeared on screen, but the chyron accurately said "Pressure over Iraq.")

--------------------

On another note:

A slip of "fingers" can be fixed easily.. but slips of tongues especially when it is the President of The United States of America and in the presence of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.. now that is another issue

It seems the Mr. Bush did not memorize his speech so very well.. and if so.. then he needed to have them print the NUMBERS and DATES in CAPS for him to be able to diffrentiate between 1776 and 1976 ..

The president stumbled on a line in his speech, saying that the queen had
dined with 10 U.S. presidents and had helped the United States "celebrate its
bicentennial in 17 ... ." Bush caught himself and corrected the date to 1976. He
paused as if to see if the queen had taken offense.

The source had a video of the speech
