Bud Selig?

Does anybody else have an issue with Selig and George Bush being slow to congradulate Bonds on his record? Think about it Selig owns the brewers and they(like any other team have had issue with steroids), he was also comissoner when Giambi, and Mcgwire where hitting homeruns like it was batting practice, and Bush owned the Rangers which had Palmero on the team (been busted with steroids, and lied to congress about it) Is it really the steroid issue that is stopping the ceremonies or is something else? Race? Bond's personality? Why is Barry the one player they have decided to take a stand agianst?

Update:

elmar I can tell you are a smart one!

Did you read the entire question 1st? or did you just see Bush and attack? Please next time read everything genius!

    Because he broke the record that is held as the highest honor in baseball. As great a player as he is some people don't like his attitude/personality, and his image management hasn't done a very good job. People latch on to the steroid suspicions and don't let it go, he's never failed a drug test so there is no proof of wrong doing.

    George Bush has been slow to do something? that's a new one huh.

    How long (if at all) did it take him to realize there were no WMD in Iraq?

    Really not fair that you are putting the pressure of quick thinking on Bush.

    You liberals try to tie Bush into EVERYTHING!

    I thought Bud called Barry already? Did he NOT?

    Why doesn't it have anything to do with the FACT that Barroid CHEATED? Did you ever think about that?

    This is a MEANINGLESS record. It would be like racing a car in a running marathon.

    Please remember Barry ADMITTED to using the products, he simply claimed he didn't know what they were......
