President Bush Booed At Baseball Game - Politics on The Huffington Post

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.

Respect is earned. For many of us, he's given us nothing for which we should respect him other than his title.

Though, I have to say that I wouldn't have booed him. Had he stepped up to the plate and had there been complete silence in the stands, I think it would have had more effect.

i respect out president just for being the president.......call me a sheep i guess....

i know he's not a great or even good president, and he has made plenty of mistakes and all, but still, for me, he is the president.

Yes, he is still President and as such, he should hold himself to a higher standard of conduct rather than set himself up as Cowboy du Jour.

Again, I will respect him as much as he respects the office he holds and the people he was elected to govern.

And I think that respect was summed up in Dick Cheyney's "So?" comment of last week.

(I feel the same way about Bill Clinton, in case the "But, but, but... Clinton!" crowd is about to pounce.)
