did they really call George Bush?

i thought that was so cool with zoo t.v. where he calls the president but somebody told me it was fake. please please let it be real :( i'm worried though. i wonder if people tried to call the white house after the concerts like Bono and that lady got tired of it?
 
I'm not sure if he actually ever got through, but he definitely really tried.
 
Yes, he really tried. Bush even mentioned it in a speech.
 
he never got through. I remember though george bush mentioning in a speech 'youve come a long way in 10 years, from phoning me every night and failing, to getting through everytime you want me'

If that's the one I'm thinking of he looks like he's about to burst into tears. :laugh:

The one I saw was the one where he brings a brown haired girl up on stage and says:
Where'd you come from? the beach? :laugh:
Then a guy comes up on stage and picks up and carries Bono around and it looks like he might trip but Bono acts so relaxed and calm and keeps on singing. :laugh:

Is there more than one Washington Zoo Tv concert video? If there is I want it.

That's a creepy one, with the sound of the dead line underneath.

Bono seems so sad and distraught.

I wonder if this call was real or just an act for the show or that song?

If you watch the Washington, DC ZooTV show, you'll see that he does actually dial the real public number for the White House: 202-456-1212
 
Funny if he did get through:

White House: Hello

Bono: Can I speak to president Bush

White House: One second

Bono:....(Oh crap, what do I say)

President Bush: President Bush speaking

Bono: ughh....Hi

President Bush: Hi, who's this

Bono: You like stuff

President Bush: Is this Bono from U2? If so why don't you play Acrobat for a change

:wink:
 
"The president of the United States is not available to me ?!? I mustn't be as important as I thought I was..."
