Tough Day for POTUS at MLB Opening Day

ThinkProgress notes President Bush's visit to the Chicago Cubs dressing room in conjunction with baseball opening day festivities in Cincinnati:

He greeted Cubs manager Dusty Baker with a handshake. “This is the year, right?” Bush said, in what some in the pool thought as sarcasm directed at the team’s perennial pennant futility.

“Dusty Baker, good to know you,” POTUS continued, turning to the cameras. He held the grip and grinned as the cameras snapped away. “Smile,” POTUS encouraged, and Baker complied, saying: “I’ll do what I got to do.”
