I'm really glad baseball is back in Washington and happy that I got to witness Opening Day ceremonies at the new stadium, even though it was via television. I am, however, appalled at the boos and catcalls made by the fans when President Bush took the field to throw the ceremonial first pitch. These actions were totally uncalled for; they undeniably show the disarray, disrespect, and disharmony running wild in this country. What does this tell our neighbors and enemies? Where have common courtesy and respect gone? George Bush is the leader of this country, and whether you like or dislike him, or agree or disagree with his politics, the people of this country put him in office. Instead of booing like a bunch While it our right to speak and allow our opinion to be known, there is a right way and a wrong way. Dennis E. Dunnington Spotsylvania
It is one of many articles available when you "Google" NYT 2000 election bush won. I chose the NYT article over one from say, FOX news, becuase liberals tend to believe what they read there as well as the LA Times, etc. There are many places where the info can be obtained. I'm just so tired of the amature conspiracy theorists that insist on perpetuating the lie that Bush "stole" the 2000 election. When Hillary gets the nomination, I wonder if they'll see that in the same light?
I'm not going to say anything about Bush "stealing" the election in 2000, I really don't care. However, I was curious how the link you provided proves otherwise, as you state. This is just an opinion of some journalist. Not to mention all the hypotheticals he uses, some of them that see Gore winning. I'm not trying to be rude or sarcastic here, I just don't see it.
You are wrong in stating that "the people of this country put him in office." He never won the popular vote! Unfortunately, the sheeples will follow him and anyone he endorses without question. I believe the 4000+ soldiers that have died did so to protect our freedom of speech and that includes our right to BOO anyone we want, include Bush! His "executive privilege" does not protect him from the Booing!
Is indeed a right but is not an excuse for poor form - both of which were on display that day. Don't hide behind your "rights" as reasoning for bad behavior.
He has been a disgraceful president. But he didn't do too bad on the pitch (high and outside, but not by too much).
