The Telegraph article linked on Drudge:

President Bush may like to be seen as a swaggering tough guy with a penchant for manly outdoor pursuits, but in a new book one of his closest allies has said he is afraid of horses.

Vicente Fox, the former president of Mexico, derided his political friend as a "windshield cowboy" – a cowboy who prefers to drive – and "the cockiest guy I have ever met in my life".

Bush has called himself a "windshield cowboy" at least once, according to published media reports during his presidency.

So it's a dumb lead, but it's interesting that the UK center-right Telegraph has reporters who feel comfortable with that lead.
