Bush on Hand for Nats Game
ABC News’ Jennifer Duck Reports: President Bush traveled to RFK stadium in Washington to catch the hometown Nationals take on the Chicago Cubs.
Bush is a big baseball fan. A few years before he was president, Bush co-owned the Texas Rangers. The great slugger Sammy Sosa played for him, but Bush traded Sosa to the White Sox a month after he hit his first homerun in the Major Leagues. Bush figured then-rookie Sosa wouldn’t amount to much, but Bush had a change of heart when Sosa joined Mark McGuire in chasing the single season homerun record.
Mr. Bush sat in the luxury box above home base with Nationals President Stan Kasten, GM Jim Bowden and Nats Owner Mark Lerner.
Bush celebrates his 61st birthday Friday.

Who gives a hoot about Monkey Boy going to watch a boring spectator sport. What does that make him, a wonderful president because he does? What a boring news clip.

He can’t even make the right decision with a ball team. Who in his right mind trades a man a month after his first home run? Shows what an idiot we are trying to deal with. God help us to survive the remaining time this failure is in the WH.
