Former U.S. President George W. Bush will throw out the ceremonial first pitch before Game 1 of the World Series between the Texas Rangers and Arizona Diamondbacks Friday night.

Bush, the U.S. president between 2001 and 2009, was part of a group that purchased the Rangers in 1989. He resigned as managing partner following his election as Texas governor in 1994.

According to the Associated Press, Bush has participated in four World Series ceremonial first pitches, but Friday's at Globe Life Field in Arlington, Texas, will be his first before an opener.

There is no one on the American political spectrum who likes or respects George W. Bush. No one - not even Michelle Obama. That’s what comes of being true to nothing you claimed to believe and adhere to.

Although the Rangers are a Texas team and I like a couple of their players, I can't stand that arrogant, showboat Garcia no matter how good a hitter he is.

I'm for the Diamondbacks.

No fan of the Bush family, but George W. Bush was a former owner of the Texas Rangers.

The vast majority of Freezers supported the Iraq war.

Yup. I did, and I was dead wrong to do so.

This POS can actually sleep at night. I probably would have offed myself by now knowing how many lives I cost just to please Daddy Bush.

And Daddy Bush’s speech about the NWO and his guarantee that they “Will Not Fail” is coming down hard on all of us and the MLB gurus had to pick his POS son to toss out the ball this year? Why didn’t they pick the Obozo so who ever is watching can see how a real SISSY throws a baseball. What a desgrase.

The vast majority of Freezers supported the Iraq war. The Dixie chicks didn’t.

Bush's 10 year long "compassionate war" where we won nothing but death and debt?

Yes, I did, to an extent, when I thought our government embarked on a plan to keep Americans safe.

I was vigorously disabused of that notion.

Yes ,at the time, the war in Iraq had overwhelming support on Free Republic.

Lots of people change their minds about people and events as time goes on. At one time George W. Bush was admired on Free Republic. Now he is hated. It happens.

They were going to ask Biden, but were not willing to take the chance of all out laughter.

What was the point? The objective? More blood to be shed on the altar of globalism and greed is my answer.

No it don’t just happen. The majority of those who supported Bush’s “Compassionate” 10 year long, 4 trillion dollar war got hoodwinked. One big conjob. Mission accomplished where we won nothing but death and debt.

And many of those who made that colossal bad decision to back Bush and that BS are likely the same people who’ll point at Trump for making a bad decision.

Bushitters, all of the supporters and GHW and GW. The POTI were easily shown to be RINO’s or worse. Their own actions and word. Like someone above said, 11-22-63, NWO and the Patriot act buried them all on 9-11. Easily prevented, or was it encouraged?
