(White House-AP) -- The White House doctor says President Bush is O-K now. He fainted briefly after choking on a pretzel while he was watching a football game on T-V. Doctor Richard Tubb says Bush scraped his cheek and bruised his lip when he fell off the couch. Bush thinks he was only out a couple of seconds, since his dogs hadn't moved by the time he came-to.

The prez was watching football by himself? Something sad about that.

And in breaking news, the FBI today denied reports that President Bush's supply of pretzels had been a gift from England's Prince Harry. (http://www.cnn.com/2002/WORLD/europe/01/12/uk.princee/index.html)

THE PRETZELS DID MAKE HIM THIRSTY

(CNN) -- What could have caused President Bush to collapse Sunday while eating pretzels and watching a football game at the White House?

CNN - Dr. Gupta's report:
==========================
. . . . .  A change in heart rhythm and dehydration could also possibly do it.
Apparently, the president was feeling a little under the weather over the
weekend -- that could have led to a little bit of DEHYDRATION. That in
combination with the violent coughing episode surrounding eating the pretzel
could have caused him to faint.
