President Bush canceled an Earth Day visit to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park on Friday because of bad weather.I have a vague hunch that Bush won't be telling the Saudi dictator about his approach to energy conservation.White House press secretary Scott McClellan said the threat of hail and thunder storms was keeping the president from visiting the park, but Air Force One still was making a brief stop at an airport outside Knoxville, Tenn., so Bush could make remarks near the park on Earth Day.
Bush then planned to fly on to Texas, where he was spending the weekend at his ranch and then hosting Crown Prince Abdullah of Saudi Arabia on Monday.
