BUSH PROVES ONCE AGAIN THAT HE IS A MORON

Islamic Community Net | 06.07.2005 22:43 | G8 2005 | Anti-militarism | Anti-racism | Social Struggles

To be the Antichrist, you don't have to be smart, you just have to be evil.

Once again, Bush has proved that to be the Antichrist you don't have to be smart, you just have to be evil:

"In May last year, Mr Bush tumbled from his mountain bike during a ride on his ranch in Crawford, Texas, scraping his chin, upper lip, both knees, his right hand and his nose . . . Mr Bush previously fell off a Segway - a motorized, two-wheel vehicle - while visiting his parents in Kennebunkport, Maine, in June 2003 and suffered scrapes to his face when he fainted and fell after choking on a pretzel at the White House in January 2002."

Bush takes spill on birthday bike ride

US President George W Bush grazed his hands when he collided with a police officer on Wednesday while cycling through the grounds of Gleneagles, the Scottish luxury hotel where world leaders are meeting.

Bush, celebrating his 59th birthday, went for a ride shortly after arriving for the summit of the Group of Eight major powers, White House spokesman Scott McClellan said.

The collision with the policeman - ironically on security duty - occurred about a hour into his ride, with Bush going at a "pretty good speed", according to McClellan.

Bush slid along the road, suffering scrapes on his hands and arms that were bandaged by the White House doctor.

His bicycle was damaged and he had to return from the ride in a van, but his plans to have dinner with Queen Elizabeth were not affected.

The officer was taken to hospital as a precaution. McClellan said Bush planned to call him later to see how he was doing.

US President George W. Bush, out for a spin on his bicycle at the Group of Eight summit venue, crashed into a policeman and had to be treated for scratches on his hands and arms.

Mr Bush was going at a pretty high speed on the presidential bicycle when he collided with an officer guarding the Gleneagles golf resort, said White House spokesman Scott McClellan.

The US leader, who had been riding for about an hour, skidded on the paved surface and suffered scrapes to his hands and arms.

He was treated and bandaged by the White House physician.

The President was mostly concerned about the police officer, who was taken to a local hospital as a precaution with a possible ankle injury, Mr McClellan said.

The President spent some time with the officer and had asked the White House physician, Richard Tubb, to monitor his condition at the hospital, he said.

Mr Bush would likely call the officer later, Mr McClellan said.

The President, who had been riding with a Secret Service agent, was fine, but the bicycle suffered some damage and Mr Bush had to return to the hotel in a car, which had been trailing them.

Mr McClellan declined to speculate about who was at fault.

In May last year, Mr Bush tumbled from his mountain bike during a ride on his ranch in Crawford, Texas, scraping his chin, upper lip, both knees, his right hand and his nose.

A spokesman at the time blamed loose topsoil for the spill, but also suggested that Mr Bush had been riding hard, noting the President was "a fitness enthusiast" and adding that "he wasn't poking along, whistling show tunes."

Mr Bush previously fell off a Segway - a motorized, two-wheel vehicle - while visiting his parents in Kennebunkport, Maine, in June 2003 and suffered scrapes to his face when he fainted and fell after choking on a pretzel at the White House in January 2002.
