Bush Will Visit Tornado-Affected Areas - NewsChannel5.com | Nashville News, Weather & Sports

WASHINGTON (AP) -- President Bush will visit Tennessee Friday to comfort victims of the devastating string of tornadoes.

To make room for the trip, Bush moved up his speech in Washington to the Conservative Political Action Conference to an earlier time on Friday.

He has also postponed a meeting with the president of Mali.

The deaths in Tennessee were part of the nation's deadliest barrage of twisters in almost two dozen years.
