TOO BAD HE DOESNT WEAR HIS MOUTH GUARD.....
when he delivers a speech.

Biking
By DEB RIECHMANN, Associated Press Writer

CRAWFORD, Texas - President Bush suffered cuts and bruises early Saturday afternoon when he fell while mountain biking on his ranch, White House spokesman Trent Duffy said.

Bush was on the 16th mile of a 17-mile ride when he fell, Duffy said. He was riding with a military aide, members of the Secret Service and his personal physician, Dr. Richard Tubb.

"He had minor abrasions and scratches on his chin, upper lip, nose, right hand and both knees," Duffy said. "Dr. Tubb, who was with him, cleaned his scratches, said he was fine. The Secret Service offered to drive him back to the house. He declined and finished his ride."

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.

1. Do cyclists wear mouth guards as a rule?

6. I know many hardcore....
mountain bikers -- you know, the kind who hurl themselves down the steepest, rockiest terrain -- and regular cyclists, and I don't know a single one of them who wears a mouth guard when biking, be it for pleasure or a race.

That really jumped out at me in the article -- mouth guard?!?!

But I knew if I asked around, a qualified DU-er would be able to set me straight. Thanks, Hell!

5. I thought he did wear a mouth guard when he speaks
Did you ever notice how he holds his lower lip? Either a mouth guard or a wad of tobacco or snuff...and what about the way he says sssssss? or A's?
:evilgrin:

7. I thought his mouth guard
was Karen Hughes (or at least the guard of what comes out of his mouth in public.)

9. A muzzle would
be more appropriate. His bite is vicious. Everytime he opens his mouth more people die.
