GLENEAGLES, Scotland - President Bush collided with a local police
officer and fell during a bike ride on the grounds of the Gleneagles
golf resort while attending a meeting of world leaders Wednesday.
Bush
suffered scrapes on his hands and arms that required bandages by the
White House physician, said White House spokesman Scott McClellan.
The
police officer was taken to a local hospital as a precaution, McClellan
said. The extent of the officer's injuries was not known, but he might
have an ankle injury, the spokesman said.
It was raining lightly at the time.
The officer was on a security detail. He is a member of the police department of Strathclyde, a nearby town, McClellan said.
The
president was concerned about the officer's condition, and talked with
him for some time after the collision, McClellan said. The president
also asked White House physician Richard Tubb to monitor the officer's
condition at the hospital.
The fall did not affect the
president's schedule. Dressed in a tuxedo, he attended a dinner hosted
by Queen Elizabeth at the annual Group of Eight economic summit. He
showed no signs of distress. (link)
He falls off a couch chokes bruises? and one or two other time bruises,
the first thing he hits with a hammer is his finger, he falls off the
Segway and once before on a bike and now; KLUTZ stirkes again.
I'm sending him ice skates for xmas - pretty white ones.
Once you learn how to fall off a bike, you never forget.
I'm
appalled that anyone would dare question President Bush's statements
about the imminent collapse of Social Security or our triumphant
success in Iraq. Blue state crybabies don't seem to understand that
Americans trust the president to do what he wants, because what he
wants is the right thing. It's obvious that if you criticize Bush,
you're against the truth.
All of Bush's past predictions have
proved true, including his prediction about WMD in Iraq. Remember, just
because you can't see them, doesn't mean they aren't there. Many
Americans believe in angels, which are also invisible, except when they
appear in TV shows.
Just listen to Sean Hannity and Rush
Limbaugh - they'll give you the unvarnished truth. Fox News is also an
unbiased source of the truth. It even says so on their Web site, which
proves that modern technology stands for what's right.
And
you can be sure that when President Bush decides to invade France, or
slay dragons, or woo the fair Dulcinea, whatever reasons he gives for
doing so will be true, even when they change repeatedly. If something
is true and honorable, then it's also right.
Honorable people
only support the truth, and President Bush is an honorable man. I don't
know how anything could be clearer than that.
