Bush on MLB Hall of Fame ballot???

George Bush, our less-than-highly esteemed president, had two major accomplishments while part owner of the Texas Rangers:

1. He traded away Sammy Sosa, and

2. turned a $600,000 investment into a $13 million profit.

Apparently, that's enough for Major League Baseball's Veteran Committee to consider Bush for the 15 non-player ballot slots on the Hall of Fame ballot.

As if baseball doesn't have enough problems, it's now trying to suck up to the president? Sigh...
