BUSH EMBARKS ON CROSS-COUNTRY MOTORCADE TO PROMOTE LESS DRIVING
200-Vehicle Convoy to Send Message of Conservation, President Says

Hoping to send a powerful message about energy conservation, President
George W. Bush said today that he would embark on an historic
cross-country motorcade to promote less driving.

"The time has come for the American people to wean themselves from
their dependence on foreign oil, and I intend to get behind the wheel
myself to send that message," Mr. Bush told reporters at the White
House today.

Taking a hands-on role in the symbolic odyssey, Mr. Bush said that he
would pilot the lead car in the motorcade, a Ford F250 pickup that he
uses to drive around his ranch in Crawford, Texas.

The president said that he personally ordered a ranch hand to drive the
pickup truck from Crawford to Washington, D.C. so that Mr. Bush would
have it in time for the historic journey.

Mr. Bush added that in the event a national security emergency should
require him to leave his energy conservation tour before it is
complete, Air Force One will hover over the motorcade at all times,
refueling in midair.

While some skeptics wondered whether Mr. Bush's cross-country trek
would succeed in convincing Americans to drive less, it has already
inspired one citizen to do so, as Rep. Tom DeLay (R-Tex) today
volunteered to cancel his trip to Texas to stand trial on conspiracy
charges.

"I asked myself, 'Is this trip necessary?' and I decided it wasn't,"
Rep. DeLay said.

Elsewhere, First Lady Laura Bush said she would appear on "Extreme
Makeover: Home Edition," while Vice President Dick Cheney said he would
appear on "Lost."
