- meteoriot, on 03/31/2008, -18/+405no, they're saying "booo-USH! booo-USH!"
- jaxter2010, on 06/17/2009, -53/+223I hear just as much cheering as booing, if not more...
- MattFromSeattle, on 03/31/2008, -11/+172Happy to see free speech alive and well. As much as I despise Bush, I have to admit, he's got a better arm than most of the chumps that throw the first pitch.
- RedHeadedFreak, on 03/31/2008, -23/+110Shhhh, diggers only want to hear boos.
- JaybeasCorpus, on 03/31/2008, -19/+105I was there...it was beautiful. Or, should I say, boo-tiful.
The best part is, near the end of the game, they were doing a highlight reel. They showed the Bush pitch again, and we all started booing once more. - Ganja420, on 03/31/2008, -41/+116BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
gotta love that 29% approval rating
Hitler and Saddam had a higher approval rating - toddcat, on 03/31/2008, -19/+92That was beautiful (the booing.....wasn't a bad pitch either).
- quokkapox, on 03/31/2008, -15/+82My local 11 o'clock news edited out the booing sounds and added a voice-over "what an arm he has". Damn "liberal" media...
- seanc6610, on 03/31/2008, -5/+67It's probably just a coincidence that every dictatorial leader has a 100% approval rating.
- Elevener, on 03/31/2008, -48/+102That actually wasnt a lot of booing, like most Digg articles, you just went for the most brash headlines you could, in typical juvenile fashion.
- Bobo44, on 03/31/2008, -21/+70Its America's Favorite Pastime.. and Americas least favorite President!
- jseres, on 03/31/2008, -9/+56That's because everyone was made to say that they approved of the job they where doing. At least you have free speech.
- sny1120, on 03/31/2008, -1/+44that was a pretty good pitch considering the heavy layers of bulletproof vests he was wearing.
- AoiTakuma, on 03/31/2008, -15/+57Everyone that bought tickets to that game with a credit card is now on the terrorist watch list.
Good job though - Laughto, on 03/31/2008, -8/+47I was saying Boo-Ush
- seanc6610, on 03/31/2008, -1/+37well that's a good way to get yourself on a watchlist.
- insobox, on 03/31/2008, -9/+35I as well heard more cheering a few loud boo's but that can be positional to the camera. As well a lot of claps for his pitch. To the people saying "impeach" and what-not it's useless at this point, he'll be fazed out and the next batter-up will have to see what they can do when they're up to bat.
- tlo182, on 03/31/2008, -3/+28youtube link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qHUAsTrl4JI (found on the orig. page)
this'll probably be gone soon, ***** MLB. - shugdoo, on 03/31/2008, -25/+50Booing aside, there were a lot of 'tards cheering as well. Sigh...
- highPhone, on 03/31/2008, -1/+24Albanian communist dictator Enver Hoxha kept his approval rating at a carefully calibrated 97.4% so people wouldn't catch on.
- smurf22, on 03/31/2008, -12/+33Who the ***** was cheering?
- archer104, on 03/31/2008, -3/+23i was saying "Boo-USH"
- inactive, on 03/31/2008, -2/+22Yep, looks like Congress is right on top of that for ya....
/facepalm - inactive, on 03/31/2008, -2/+22RANDOM LETTERS
- pinguwin, on 03/31/2008, -2/+21This is one of the few venues where one can express their dissatisfaction with him. Look at how scripted his appearances are, before screened republican crowds, military settings, etc. Protesters and their signs are kept away from him, lest he be embarrassed by people actually expressing their opinions. Go ahead and do some searching on how scripted his events are how people with contrary opinions are kept away, often with police cooperation, they have a play book on how to script events that deals with how to cover up people showing opposing opinions that was partially released in response to a lawsuit because people were arrested with t-shirts (t-shirts, wtf?) that didn't meet with Republican approval.
I say it is the correct venue as in many ways...it's the ONLY venue. - bicyclethief, on 03/31/2008, -16/+35If there was ever a time to rush the mound...
- thatsmyaibo, on 03/31/2008, -18/+37Oh shut up already. By time he is removed from office he will already be out of office.
- JaybeasCorpus, on 03/31/2008, -7/+25There was definitely a mix, but quite a few more boos than cheers.
- Dumbledorito, on 03/31/2008, -3/+21It's never too late to let someone get at least a hint of what most people think of their performance.
It's also never to late to learn punctuation, even if you are a refugee from FreeRepublic. - foofoobee, on 03/31/2008, -7/+25For a sitting president to receive clearly audible booing that way at a baseball game is a big deal. I don't disagree that Digg headlines are often sensationalistic, but this one was accurate.
- hammburglar, on 03/31/2008, -6/+24this just in: texas rangers invade yankee stadium. none of the alleged corked bats found.
- jseres, on 03/31/2008, -1/+18However there is stealing.
- parallax7d, on 03/31/2008, -15/+32Yeah, good arm. Too bad about those 1,000,000+ dead people.
- Yatata, on 03/31/2008, -6/+23mmmm.... not if there's another "incident". private security firms have been awarded multi-billion dollar contracts by this administration and have begun to step up their presence in civilian areas, martial law is a definite possibility before the year is out. also impeachment hearings are important symbolically, they set a standard of conduct and say that no illegal action will go uninvestigated. that's an incredibly important standard to set for any incoming administration.
- Cannon49, on 03/31/2008, -16/+32Dugg for the SImpsons reference
- tundra721, on 03/31/2008, -1/+16Yeah, a little different than the 2001 first pitch
http://youtube.com/watch?v=NaoryQ0oLh8 - inactive, on 03/31/2008, -15/+30Were you people saying "Boo" or "Boo-USH"?
- Cpd4224, on 03/31/2008, -16/+31It sounded like a mix to me, and considering the people booing were probably 10x as loud as the people clapping calmly id say its not as many boos as you think.
On another note, I hate President Bush as much as the next guy, which is a lot, but at the same time I somehow felt uncomfortable watching this. Its a tradtion, and he's just throwing out the first pitch. And it was opening day i believe. I say give him a few claps for a good pitch and let it be. Im not sure why I think that way because I really am strongly against president bush, but somehow this didnt seem like the right venue for such an action. Am i off base? - thecheatah, on 03/31/2008, -4/+18Alright Hillary, go to sleep.
- themadrammer, on 08/18/2009, -1/+15Typically, you shouldn't be hearing any boo's against a President. It takes a lot to get an audience to boo him live. ANY booing, is a spectacle in itself.
- tedonion, on 03/31/2008, -8/+21I find it wonderful and amazing that we are able to exercise this type of free speech in this country. If only our leaders listened to it. . .
- mystdragon333, on 03/31/2008, -10/+23"Hey guys, i got a great idea. Let's let george bush throw the first pitch!"
"Yeah! Everybody loves george bush!" - logan074, on 03/31/2008, -3/+16Because then we get Cheney?
- kajoob, on 03/31/2008, -2/+15If you digg him down, he shall become more powerful than you could possibly imagine
- inactive, on 03/31/2008, -1/+14He was a cheerleader in college, as well as a drunken fratboy who got "C's".
- inactive, on 03/31/2008, -7/+20why?
- Swarms, on 03/31/2008, -2/+15You're*, dumbass.
- tatltat, on 03/31/2008, -5/+17funny how the majority can support our president and turn their backs on him a few years later.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NaoryQ0oLh8&feature ... - jmkiii, on 03/31/2008, -1/+13I don't think I have ever seen anyone quote that POS movie.
- MisterFreeze, on 03/31/2008, -5/+17Bush has a heart?
