Not Going Back to the Ranch??

In a meeting with mayors on Wednesday, President Bush confirmed what's been an open secret: He'll move to Dallas when his term is over a year from now.

What!? You mean, he's not going to keep pretending to be a cowboy out on Rancho Fabricata? Who will clear the brush? Who will drive the pickup around?

Oh, okay. McClatchy is jumping the gun in their headline ("Bush says he and Laura will move to Dallas when term ends") and that lead paragraph. Read a little further:

Arlington, Texas, Mayor Robert Cluck, who also attended the meeting, said that when Bush sat down to talk to the mayors about free-trade deals and the economy, he said, "I want to make sure I do a good job today because my mayor's in the room." Cluck said he believes that Bush also said, "I'm moving to Dalls."

[...]

The White House has refused to confirm any of the speculation.

"The president and Mrs. Bush have made no announcement about their post-White House plans," said White House deputy press secretary Gordon Johndroe, "except that they'll be spending a lot of time in Crawford," where the president's ranch is located.

"Spending a lot of time" doesn't sound like "living in" though, does it?


....but hey, do what you want....you will anyway.
