Forget the Democratic National Convention. This morning's really big story?

The President fell off his bicycle. Again. Sources indicate chewing gum may have been a factor.

Said Bush spokesperson Clare Buchan, "During an 18-mile ride, as bikers often do, the president took a minor spill and scraped his knee.'

Right. If the biker is a 6-years old rushing home late for dinner and fearing the loss of his allowance.

Also note the reference to the President’s earlier bicycle mishap, attributed to loose ground soil due to rain. The estimated rainfall in Crawford, Texas that week? Less than a tenth of an inch. Alright, it’s a lie on par with Al Gore inspiring Love Story, but I think postings on “WDR” should strive to be “Fair and Balanced.”

In other news, is Ben Affleck campaigning to become the Kerry family’s Billy Carter/Roger Clinton/Neil Bush? It just might be, as he coos at the Kerry daughters in this month’s Vanity Fair. http://www.nydailynews.com/news/politics/story/216214p-186121c.html

Note to Ben: You thought J-Lo’s mom was tough? Try going one-on-one with Teresa Heinz Kerry. I’ve got THK by TKO in the first round.

Keep up the good work, Todd. If I ever decide to spend my summer vacation in Boston (if every hotel room in Cleveland is booked) I now know where to dine.

Funny how the previous comment neglected to mention Kerry's own bicycle mishap. Read all about it here:

Of course, Bush fell while off-roading on a mountain bike ... while Kerry was on pavement when he went a** over teakettle. Wonder what Kerry's excuse was: perhaps a pothole?

Then again, the previous comment also neglected to mention how Kerry fell while snowboarding a while back ... he got up, said "I don't fall", blamed the whole thing on a "Son of a B*tch" Secret Service Agent and took off down the slope ... only to fall an additional FIVE times.
