Which of Bush's speeches are you talking about?
Can you give a more complete quote from one of his speeches in which this phrase occurs?  A whole sentence at least?
Thanks.

Sorry, Koto, but I have difficultly viewing youtube. If you transcribe the part you're talking about, it would help.

Hi, G.G! Thanks Smile [:)]

Here's the part I was talking about:
(Bush with Steve Bridges, the impersonator, at 2006 White House Correspondents Dinner)

Bush: As you know, I always look forward to these dinners.

Steve: It's just bunch of media types. Hollywood liberals, democrats like Joe Biden. How come I can't have dinner with 36% of the people who like me? (LOL)  Only thing Mrs. Hillary Clinton sitting on a front row rolling her ass.
(Sorry, I'm not 100% sure if the underlined part is exactly what he said but hope it will help)

That's not what he said. The exact line is:

"...The only thing missing's Hillary Clinton sitting on the front row rollin' her eyes."

De-Bushified, that would be: "The only thing missing is Hillary Clinton sitting in the front row rolling her eyes."
