All sorts of weirdness here: Bush Suffers Cuts, Bruises While Biking:

Bush was wearing his bike helmet and a mouth guard when the mishap occurred. Duffy said he didn't know exactly how the accident happened.

"It's been raining a lot and the topsoil is loose," the spokesman said. "You know this president. He likes to go all out. Suffice it to say he wasn't whistling show tunes.

I'm glad Bush protects his bean, but according to the weather channel, it hasn't rained in at least a week in Crawford. And that bit about "whistling showtunes?" I guess that's supposed to be making fun of people who like musical theater, who may or may not be gay.

Bush is supposed to go on TV monday. Wonder if we'll see any visible damage. From the AP photo, it doesn't look too bad. Also: scrape on chin and temple. It's fucking hard to abrase your temple when you're wearing a bike helmet.

While the prez has proven his ability to fall off easier things to ride than a mountain bike, the weird and inconsistant details around this remind me a lot more of the pretzel incident.

I don't know whether or not Bush is off the wagon, or if he and his wife really do fight, but the notion that he got these injuries falling off a bike is suspect. The rain thing only makes it moreso. Well see if anything emerges. Probably not. Just another day in the spin cycle I suppose.
