Somehow, I had hoped that—after throwing out the ceremonial first pitch at the season opening baseball game of the Washington Nationals today—Dick The Hawk Cheney would experience an epiphany and realize that his true love was baseball, not politics. He would then step down as President of Vice to pursue a pitching career with the Republican Traveling All-Stars. In doing so, America would be relieved of an arrogant and corrupt VP, and The Hawk would be able to relieve in the late innings of close ballgames. But, alas, my foolish fantasy was not in the cards. Heck, it never even made it to the mitt, as Cheney’s pitch short-hopped the catcher. On the plus side, though, those in attendance today at RFK Stadium—discriminating fans that they are—greeted the VP with a chorus of boos. They know a lousy pitcher when they see one.

Non, no, no. That is an incoming ball trying to bean the SOB. Damn if a Secret Service Stinger didn’t take it out.
I am a Met fan.
The Nationals were playing the Mets (who have a player who once –gasp–refused to sing God Bless America!) and I believe many Mets fans were in that crowd.
I too would have boo’ed lustily given the opportunity.
“Cheney hurls and misses” is a title that can be taken in a couple of ways. My first thought was that he had decided to follow in Poppy’s footsteps and blow chunks all over some unfortunate foreigner. Perhaps a final parting gift for Berlusconi as a way of saying “thanks for the cannon fodder”.
