President Bush Booed At Baseball Game

President Bush threw out the ceremonial first pitch tonight at the Washington Nationals season opener and the inaugural game at Washington's National Ballpark. But the President — an avid baseball fan and the former owner of the Texas Rangers — probably didn't get the fan response he was hoping for, as he was largely booed by the 41,000-person sellout crowd as he walked out to throw the pitch.

I didn't hear enough people booing him! They should have booed so hard he had to leave the field. So there are clearly a lot of fascist's in this country!

[hip dibler]

sure he's the worst president ever.

he's in the running for worst person. EVER.

[w&cheneysuck]

right behind Hitler & Cheney....

[pierce977]

Now why do you want to insult Hitler like that?!

[sa]

soon he'll be on every golf course in america
looking for wmd's.
o.j. will be his caddie.
both of them, looking for the "real killers."

until one day they both see him in a mirror.

p.s. bush is the only man in america that o.j. can look down upon.

They should have given bush a drug test. That swaggering chump can hurt somebody.

[gorgol]

"Booing" a sociopath?? its like throwing gasoline on a fire. He'll probably go back to his little "nook" under a rock and think of other horrors he can bring to this country.

[w&cheneysuck]

He actually thought that they were yelling "Bruce"...­.he thought that Springsteen was there...!

[SonnyBono]

No, he thought that Bruce Lee was there - see, he hasn't figured out that Bruce Lee is dead and wait a second, I am too - darn, and I had such witty things left to say. Well, you can't have everything.

[landmine]

Heartening to hear the boo's.
Unfortunately, based on his guts to get out there, the relative quality of the pitch and the body english in the walk out and back....he still has plenty of swagger and confidence and is no way afraid or doubting himself. They guy still has his foot firmly on the gas pedal folks and he likes those 4 wheel drifts.

[provgrays]

Did you see Bush's little glare of contempt when he figured out that everyone was booing?

[scottyboi84]

I thought that was awful funny... He can't turn around and give a speech to tell us that there was no "booing" because we all saw it, plain as day...haha­hahaha

[Metacortex]

Well, it wasn't a quake rattling boo, but he sure didn't waste any time getting in and outta there.

[klashawnd]

Actually if you hear the radio version of the events, the boos were MUCH louder and MUCH more noticeable. I think ESPN was generous and may have covered up the booing by mixing in their own crowd noise. TV shows do this all of the time.

[HDR]

No, I'm afraid not. This is a guy who is oblivious to anything and everything with the thick hide of a rhino.

[way2muchsense]

THIS.

[tomcat27834]

actually, GWBush is extremely insecure..­.....don't let the swagger and grin fool ya. He just reminds himself that HE, and HE alone is the leader of the free world - whats left our our good name

The video's commentators sound like they work for Fox News -- fawning all over Dubya's athletic(?) abilities.

Makes me want to puke!

[bushmocker]

This is probably the last time he'll make an unscripted appearance.

[vippy]

Hillary would be same as Bush, only smarter! Hillary has always voted on the side of the Republicans,
check her voting record. Why would someone even consider her after she condones torture, voting
for the military commission act and the bankruptcy bill, which is utter nonsense. And you really
buy her sweet words right now?

[rjean]

hillary wouldnt be the same as bush.....o­h yes i see hillary giving the american people a tax rebate....­..all you dems know is to tax to the hilt...as for smart....h­illary isnt too smart...he­r campaign mgr is linked with a bad mortgage co....doin­g exactly what hilypoo is out there talking AGAINST...
she lied about bosnia and sniper fire.....a­nd being the first first lady in a combat zone...

hillary is the biggest liar on earth.....­..........­..........­...
as for baseball..­..........­.......if people read liberal spin daily like the crap on here...we'­d all be dizzy....

i saw bush throw out the first pitch and i heard CHEERS....­..........­.......

but leave it to the slime media to report just the opposite..­.

when will america wake up to liberals..­..........­......

[Zentomato]

It is too bad that there was no batter who could have swatted a line drive right between this idiots eyes.

[markusmarkus]

Wouldn't have made any difference - there's no one home!

[Trollstakeyourmeds]

You couldn't get anything between his eyes. They're too close together.

[Malarcus]

Dubya has special ear phones that convert "boos" into "attaboys.­"
