Such was the headline; Here's the quote from the article: "I guess I'm a little scared, but not much," he said. "I'm looking forward to it. I want to get back. I want to see what it's like to run five miles again."

Would the headline have read differently, had our revered Chickenhawk in Chief been facing heart-bypass surgery?

Here's another quote showing that Bill Clinton was his usual self: "Let me just say this, Republicans aren't the only people who want four more years here," Clinton said in a live interview Friday evening on CNN's "Larry King Live."
