The Mandatory Visit

The President brought his A-Game to the White Sox photo op today. It wasn't surprising to me how comfortable President Bush sounded talking baseball as opposed to how uncomfortable he sounds talking policy.

He also mentioned the Ozzie situation and handled it very nicely. What was curious was that Bush failed to mention that Scott Podsdnik, currently on his honeymoon, also skipped the trip.

Why aren't people bitching that Scotty Pods skipped out on Bush?

Perhaps that's because Podsednik isn't exactly skipping any.
