Bush policy decision hospitalizes 300+ Boy Scouts

Hey, if Drudge can manipulate headlines, I can manipulate headlines....

And, a la Drudge, Fox, etc., it's -- as Al Franken puts it-- "accurate but misleading."

BOWLING GREEN, Va. (AP) - More than 300 Boy Scouts were sickened by the heat Wednesday while waiting for President Bush to arrive at a memorial service for four Scout leaders who were killed while pitching a tent beneath a power line.

The president's visit to the Scout Jamboree at Fort A.P. Hill was postponed because of the threat of severe thunderstorms and strong winds. Instead, Bush is scheduled to visit the gathering Thursday.

But before the president's appearance was called off, many Scouts fell ill from temperatures that rose into the upper 90s, made worse by high humidity.
