It's just a reflection.
Agreed. Never said it wasn't.

Watch when Bush shifts his weight to the right foot, in our perspective. The reflection moves to the right also. Bush moves left. Every time Bush
moves, the reflection moves.
The face of the alien is the reflection of GWB's hair. Nothing more.
I wasn't terribly clear when I wrote this. A lot of that is because I was tired and hungover from a night at a crappy nightclub. Overpriced scotch.
Ugh.
Other videos that can be found:
ABC
AP -
not much footage of the actual speech.
CNN - search for "bush mortgage" 'cuz the interface seems
broken
Reuters
Compare the time indexes AND the audio at 19 seconds on the ABC video and the 3:00 minute marker on the White House video (the video I watched the
first time):
the official White House page
In the White House video the "figure" in the glass door moves every time GWB moves and moves in the same direction. It is the reflection of his
back, and the "face" is his hair being slightly backlit by a high sun. The blueness and weirdness of the "face" comes most likely from
distortions in the glass reflecting the back of GWB's political-style hair.
Looking at the different videos, same speech from different angles, I only see the image of a Grey in the ABC, CNN, and Reuters ones. They aren't
videos of the full speech. Also, all those cameras seem to be right next to one another. It sure as hell looks like a Grey in those videos. In the
ABC video right at 20/21 seconds, 1:40, and 2:20 the apparent alien goes abstract. At times it looks like it could be a woman in a white outfit and a
ponytail, looking down at something, back to the president. Or, the alien is right out there in the crowd and can't consistently maintain
interdimensional integrity. No idea. I wasn't there.
The White House vid angle gives a clear shot of where the alien appears to be in the other videos. No Grey. But yeah, it is the official White House
video and shows reflection weirdness in about the same location on the door.
The AP video, about 14 seconds in at time 1:07 (a countdown, not countup) shows an odd blob of a reflection but not a Grey.
If there was one there I'd expect to see a Grey in all the videos from a variety of angles. More or less of it because of the angle, at least. I'm
not seeing it.
As an aside, here's the speech on the Minn. bridge collapse at CNN. Shows great reflection weirdness, including an amorphous white blob at GWB's
right shoulder, but no Greys.

I like a good puzzle and I've been up WAY past a responsible bedtime hour. Hasta. Have fun.
