Bike Ride More Important Than Country?

By Justin Gardner | Related entries in Bad Decisions

Um…I just found this weird little nugget in the Wall Street Journal:

Once a day, he puts his desire for a workout ahead of the nation, ahead of his marriage, ahead of his kids. That those around him understand the sanctity of his workout became clear last month when a small plane entered restricted airspace above the nation’s capital, prompting legislators and even Mrs. Bush to run for cover. But the president wasn’t told about this scare until it was over, because his aides didn’t want to interrupt his bike ride.

I don’t know if this is true, but is so…WTF?
