This has most likely been posted before, but it is driving me crazy.
so I'm sorry if it has
In PJ song Bushleaguer Ed sings "born on third, thinks he hit a triple"
Well Vern Troyer in The love Guru, says the quote.
So, I've been searching the internet for who said this quote first and I can't find anything. Anyone know who quoted this first??
I think that is flippin' awesome if EV's song line has been used in sport-type movie. and I'm sure it will be used again.

It was said in the 1988 Democratic National Convention. It was said about W's father, Bush, Sr.
Jim Hightower in his speech said: "George Bush was born on third base and decided that he'd hit a triple."
Some incorrectly attribute it to Ann Richards, but she had her own famous zinger:
"Poor George. He can’t help it. He was born with a silver foot in his mouth.""I'll use the magic word - let's just shut the fuck up, please." EV, 04/13/080 -
