Bush Takes Motivational Speaker Gig

Former president George W. Bush is scheduled to appear at a motivational speakers' series that bills him among "America's foremost success experts."

Bush, who tried to motivate legislators to ban same-sex marriage in 2004, will join other speakers such as Gen. Colin Powell, former New York City mayor Rudy Giuliani, and NFL veteran Terry Bradshaw for a Get Motivated! business seminar in Fort Worth, Texas, on October 26, according to Talking Points Memo.

"The all-day event next week will be held at the Fort Worth Convention Center Arena," reports TPM. "Tickets are apparently $19. That's not per person -- that's per office."

The ex-president will also speak at a Get Motivated! seminar in San Antonio on December 2.
