President Caught in Trouser Mishap
Friday, July 8, 2005

Angus McCracken

(07-08) 09:53 PDT GLENEAGLES, Scotland (Independent)

American President George W. Bush was tripped up by his own trousers in a bizarre incident this evening at the closing of the G8 conference in Gleneagles, Scotland.

In what one witness described as 'lightning speed,' the president's trousers and underpants fell to his ankles as he strode across the lobby of the Gleneagles Hotel. Before security agents could come to his aid, Bush tumbled awkwardly to the ground.

'No pictures!' were Bush's first words, as Secret Service men rushed to the half-naked leader's side and helped him to his feet. Several nearby photographers ignored the order.

'It was very strange,' said hotel employee Alaistair Micklethwaite. 'One minute the president was on his feet, the next he was on the ground with no pants on, crying out not to photograph him. I didn't see what happened, and no one else seems to have either.'

8. Oh, please, please, please, please -don't let this be a parody, a joke,
or someone's idea of fake news. I would so love to see Chimpy with his pants and his BVDs down around his ankle, flat on his face. And he is yelling, "No pictures." Can you just imagine what Stewart, Leno, Letterman and every two bit comic between here and Pluto could make with this material? He just keeps handing this stuff to them.

Is there video available of BushyBot crashing his bike or practically passing out blowing out the candles on his cake? The pseudo leader of the "free" world and every time he opens his mouth he just changes feet. If he isn't on the sauce then I'm the Queen of Morocco.

Fingers crossed, waiting for a link.
