Bush's Audiences

may not be as "sanitized" as they have been in the past. But, I believe his audiences are still carefully screened and all efforts are made to assure Bush encounters nothing but respect and deference. So, I don't want to give him more credit than he is due. I at least credit Cheney with marching to (an area near the front of) the mound protected only by kevlar. He did not bring along a military escort to make sure the natives didn't get too restless.

Maybe they were yelling Booo-urns

Mr. Burns: Smithers, are they boo-ing me?

Smithers: Uh...no. They're saying boo-URNS, boo-URNS

Mrs. Burns: (To the crowd) Excuse me, are you saying BOO or BOOURNS?

Crowd: BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!

Hans Moleman: (to himself) I was saying boourns.

Cheney's aim and boooos

Me thinks he should have aimed the ball at third base, relying on his skill as an shooter. Or were the boos really for his performance of a lying VP? On second thought, he might have hit the catchers face and the team might have come after him, too bad he missed this time around.
