Proud to be an American. Thoughts on watching President Bush at the
World Series.

How nice to sit back and reflect on something good. Our Country, our
President, and Baseball. What a delight and how inspiring to see
President Bush on Tuesday night bravely (and that's no lie) walk to the
mound at Yankee Stadium exposed and vulnerable yet brave and with
purpose.

By throwing out the first pitch the President was saying "I defy you!"
"You will not stop America, not take our freedom away, and not take
baseball from us. Baseball is our common bond."

The courage this took must be noted and applauded. Perhaps he...IS...
the right man at the right time.

I watched proudly as our President walked to the mound

It was so quiet, you could hardly hear a sound

Alone and vulnerable yet with courage and determination

With love for Baseball and this great nation

The first pitch was thrown and down the middle it went

What a courageous message Bush has sent

All Americans stand.... proud and true

You can't stop us, there's... Nothing.... you can do
