For you rabid baseball fans...

... taking the day off work or skipping class for Opening Day 2008 (one of my classes was canceled this afternoon and the halls at school were mighty empty).

Below's the footage of Bush getting booed by baseball fans during Sunday's opening game for the Washington Nationals. The video also highlights Bush's pitching effort for the New York Yankees after Sept. 11.

What a difference six and a half years makes.

To quote Bob Uecker from Major League, Bush's pitch yesterday, as well as his foreign policy, is:

"Juuuuuuusssssstttttt a bit outside."

Our New Approach to Comments

In an effort to encourage the same level of civil dialogue among Politics Daily’s readers that we expect of our writers – a “civilogue,” to use the term coined by PD’s Jeffrey Weiss – we are requiring commenters to use their AOL or AIM screen names to submit a comment, and we are reading all comments before publishing them. Personal attacks (on writers, other readers, Nancy Pelosi, George W. Bush, or anyone at all) and comments that are not productive additions to the conversation will not be published, period, to make room for a discussion among those with ideas to kick around. Please read our Help and Feedback section for more info.
