Bush falls off bike
First the Segway incident and now a bike.

Stick to walking, Dubya!

Damn terrorist bicycles!

Time to “liberate” Schwinntonia.

How the $#@% is this news?? The Segway was funny only because it’s selling point is that you can’t fall off it, but who hasn’t fallen off a bike?

The President eats a pretzel and nearly chokes to death!

I think this, the segway and the pretzel incident are all cover stories. I think Cheney beats him and he’s in denial.

Geez, I’ll bet they made him wear a big dorky helmet, too.

It must be no fun at all to be president.

Seriously though, were any other presidents banged up this much about the head and shoulders in their first term? Apart from Ford, I mean.

Even Reagan was a fairly active old dude, but he just fell off a horse that once, right? :smiley:

Didn’t Kerry take a header off a bike a few weeks back?

Hmmm…shouldn’t the Conspiracyometer be flashing red right about now? :dubious:

As I recall, McKinley and Lincoln got a couple of shots.

Yeah, I didn’t bother to look up the correct spelling of the former. So sue me. I ain’t got nothin’ you want anyway.

According to Drudge, John Kerry’s “off-the-record” but on-camera response was, “Did the training wheels fall off?”

Beautiful. I was going to vote for Kerry anyway, but after that line, I’m going to feel a lot better about it.

It was snow skis, unless there was a seperate incident I didn’t hear about.

WTF kind of BS degree is “humanities”?!?!?! [/ot]

I think it’s English… literature and that sort of stuff.

Yup, looks like there was a seperate incident.

I haven’t fallen off a bike since I was 10.

What with all of these clumsy politicians?

They can’t multi-task.

CNN yesterday was reporting that he was wearing a mouth guard. A Mouth guard!?! If they’re making him wear a mouth guard, he shouldn’t be biking! It’s like they knew he couldn’t be trusted on two wheels!

When the debates start, stiff railing will be needed on the stage. As often as Bush and Kerry fall from things, this could be dangerous. Maybe if Nader has a series of mishaps, then is allowed to join the debates (yeah right), the trio could be affectionately referred to as Larry, Curly, and Moe.

I heard he was on a ride that was close to twenty miles over very rough terrain. Falls are very possible in this situation, and a mouth guard is as good as a helmet.

Bush has a long way to go before he approaches the clumsiness of Gerald Ford, a man who, as Bob Hope put it, played a great game of golf for a guy wearing skis.

To be fair, I’m sure Bush has sucessfully ridden two wheeled vehicles dozens of times in the last four years.

So it should be “Two wheeled vehicles 2, Bush 24.” Which still isn’t a good record.

True, but “Bush Has Pleasant Bike Ride” isn’t as interesting.

:smiley:
