Ranchwear will be also stage a return. Levis, cowboy boots and big buckles. Twenty-gallon hats, accessorized if necessary, will be worn without a trace of irony, such as when Senate majority leader Trent Lott turned up at Bush?s ranch recently wearing his Stetson with a huge feather protruding from the hatband...
...Year's before we have a President-elect. But if George W. Bush wins, the White House will look more Wild West than West Wing. Just witness how the Bushes decked the halls of the Governor's Mansion in Austin.

"What I don't like about McDonald's France," says an overweight U.S. cowboy in one ad, "is that it doesn't buy American beef." The ad specifies that French McDonald's uses only French beef, to "guarantee maximum hygienic conditions" - Europe is citing health concerns in its bid to ban the imports of hormone-treated American beef...
