President is ‘hanging loose’

President Bush told reporters, “I’m kind of hanging loose, as they say,” before he took off this afternoon on a mountain bike ride around a loop at Tamarack Resort. The very-fit Bush reportedly outstripped Idaho Gov. Dirk Kempthorne, who couldn’t always keep up. Then, around 4 p.m., the Bushes and the Kempthornes headed out on Lake Cascade in a pontoon boat stocked with fishing gear.
