Now I Don't Feel So Clumsy
President Bush has more bike accidents than I do.
But one thing - why does CNN use scare quotes in the next paragraph.

President Bush collided with a British police officer during a bike ride Wednesday evening, suffering scrapes on his hands and arms that required bandaging, White House spokesman Scott McClellan said.Of course, I don't ride in Scotland. And I avoid times of day on trails where 6 year-olds might be found; I've learned my lesson.
The officer, from the Strethclyde Police Department in Scotland, was taken to a local hospital as a precaution. He was treated and released, after an evaluation revealed no fractures, McClellan said.
But one thing - why does CNN use scare quotes in the next paragraph.
Bush "visited" with the police officer for some time after the accident and asked White House physician Dr. Richard Tubb to monitor his situation at the hospital, McClellan said. The president was expected to call the officer later, McClellan said.I'm scratching my head.

I think they're saying Bush is gay.
I know if I were to visit with a well-built secret-service guy with an accent it would probably require scare quotes as well.
