Hundreds Of "White Folks" Line Up To See Former President George W Bush

This morning I took a series of traffic evasive moves and wound up driving a route that I don't normally take.  I happened to drive past the "Borders Books" store in the Buckhead section of Atlanta.   I saw a long line of people with little "diversity".    I had no idea what the occasion was.

It could not have been the recent "Confederate Anniversary" celebrations that go so many "Progressive Who Are Black" blog sites and the NAACP upset because they chose to omit the references to American Slavery.  This anniversary happened last week.   These "White folks" were gathered together for some other reason.  Besides the NAACP had promised to protest such "Confederate" gatherings so this could not have been it.

I tried calling the store but no one answered.  All employees were likely doing crowd control.
I called the coffee shop in the store but they did not answer either.

I looked up this Borders location on the web and sure enough I saw what attracted this long line that stretched around the corner during a light drizzle with 40-something degree weather:
