Apparently he's a tour de France fan (As long as fellow Texan Lance Armstrong is winning). From ESPN comes the following.
ABOARD AIR FORCE ONE -- President Bush predicted Friday that Lance Armstrong will win the Tour de France -- and added with a smile that he will triumph in his own race for re-election.Ok Friends, no need to hold election 'cause Lance is going to vote for us all. Now did I miss a memo or something. The image of that grinning simian, thumbs up, secure in the knowledge that he'll get 4 more years......
Bush fed his new passion for bicycling by watching the Tour on Air Force One's TV screens, rooting for fellow Texan Armstrong during a punishing stage through the Pyrenees mountains.
Asked by The Associated Press whether he thought Armstrong would pull off a record-breaking sixth straight tour win, Bush flashed two thumbs-up.
"He's going to win and I'm going to win," Bush said en route to Florida and West Virginia -- two critical states in re-election campaign.
"There's no need to worry about either race any more," Bush said with a wave of his hands and a grin.
Armstrong finished second in Friday's stage, leaving main rival Jan Ullrich struggling behind. He advanced the from sixth to second in the overall standings.
