Obama First Pitch: Obama Wears Mom Jeans, Throws Like a Girl?

Of course everything he does is at the center of everyone's attention.  He's the President!  Not only that, but he's a President who is enacting a very different agenda from any seen in the last forty or so years of US politics.  Add to that the fact that he has created a very rockstar-esc persona and it's only natural that he'd have this sort of coverage.

He should just be thankful he's still getting mostly positive coverage given how unpopular so many of his policies have been so far.

I saw that throw,

It was awful.

Listen, the press has made him out to be something of an athlete when he is way more of an Urkel then a jock. The pitch just proves two things, the image he has created of himself is full of holes and the media is still giving him the old monica.

One: I would love to see Rush throw a ball like a "man".

Two: He threw like a girl? What year is this, 1950?

Also, I may be mistaken, but is having the ability to throw a baseball "properly" in the requirements for one to be president?

Soetoro throws like a girl because his teleprompter died.

Listen up people,

Just because you are an athelete does not mean you can automatically be good at all sports. Somebody good at basketball might not be able to throw a strike to save their lives. I played football but can't play a lick of basketball.

Also, Rush is a hack at best. Let's see him play basketball one on one with Obama see him have a heartattack trying to run up and down the court. I would willing to buy pay per view for that!

When will the American people accept the fact that our United States President is African-American?  President Barack Obama is a “BLESSING” to this world!  We as people should be more thankful and less negative.  The world was not made in one day but President Obama will change this world for the better and then what will people say or think.  Let the hate go and be happy.  This is not the time to be critical but rather loving and helpful to one another!

I am not shocked that he throws like a girl, nor are the Russians, Korea, Iran or Hugo Chavez. They treat him like a sissy cause he is one. Perhpas when has completed his one world socialized government that he is intent on, then he can make it law that EVERYONE has to throw like e girl!!!  As it was, he made sure that the best angle for the camera, and no live shot of the throw was seen, just like a dictator would.  Control the media. But you can't control a fast ball....... He seems to be good at spending other peoples money ....hmmmm , what a coincidence. 

PATHETIC! We look to Limbaugh for comments. Wake up, we have a country to save. get past the petty & look to the furure...I don't care about baseball I care about our humanity!

what does it matter if it is like a girl...anyway there is no susch thing as  girl throw ... donot insult women

True, do not insult girls, they throw better than obama!!!!

I hope he at least stuffs his "mom jeans"

Obama is a fake, he is just another puppet placed here to get everyone under one roof. Besides that I think he and  Michelle are brother and sister. Check out the teeth, see what I mean??

It's time that the U.S.A wake up and stop the hate. We need to heal the world. Not since JFK has the world seen such a charismatic figure for an USA president. Not only is President Obama intelligent,brilliant and a family man but he is also handsome. Too bad that we cannot say the same for cross-dressing, tub of lard Rush. President Obama is the one who will unite the world that George Bush messed up and disappeared under a rock. May God continue to bless our President.  

People who say Obama throws like a girl probably walk like a girl. Not only is our President intelligent but is has a swagger to die for ( like it or not not ). Our presidents before him they could barely walk and some of them were not even articulate. Grow up you haters and whine to your momas.

Are you too young to remember Bill Clinton. We knew what was going on in the bedroom. At least we don't know if Obama performs as well as his fast ball!

What we need to remember is the good old (sarcasm) years of the Bush era. The good old war in Iraq - which was never ever explained - that killed more than 3000 young, ambitious, and patriotic Americans. Obama has not sent U.S. troops anywhere without a good reason. The 9/11 attacks, as you will all agree, is more than a good reason to send troops to combat. That is why Obama has sent extra troops to Afghanistan. The 9/11 attacks were planned in Afghanistan, not in Iraq, though none of the terrorists were from Afghans. Lets not forget that more than 200,000 Iraqis died in that war. If we were upset about 3000 people, imagine how much of a loss that is to Iraqis. I know some of you will say: Saddam had to be removed. Though you do not really care for others. That's just your excuse. He was a foreign leader, who did not impose a threat to us. And as such, it was the Iraqis choice and problem. We should not meddle in other countries' politics. Imagine if Russians told us that Bush was a tyrant, and brought their tanks, troops, and aircraft on our soil. It is unacceptable.

On the domestic side of things, lets not forget the great recession that we're in. Millions of Americans have lost their jobs, because Bush did not take care of the economy. He left it with almost no regulation. Then. we - the taxpayers - had to bail out all the big corporations that were responsible for the economic turmoil, which caused many to lose their jobs. Let's not forget that while Katrina victims had to rely on the great love, compassion, and unity of the churches across the United States, Bush neglected to respond to the crisis that American citizens faced. He was too busy spending more than 600 Billion dollars on the war in Iraq. I don't think that is a wise decision. I don't think that such a person should be our president. 

So let's remember the real duties of the president. Let's remember that Barack Obama is here to serve the best interest of Americans. If you spent a little more time following the developments around the world and in our country, you wouldn't come across as an uninformed citizen.

yea....bush is the man??? because during his...for a lack of a worse term "administration", he did one thing right??? throw a pitch after 9-11. if that makes him a man, than yes he is one heck of a man... frikin IDIOT!

Fred W is an idiot...Bill Clinton was a good president who was very tainted...Where was his morals? With a beautiful and intelligent wife, did she deserve what he did to her? President Obama is a family man and I really don't think it's any of your business what he and his wife does in their bedroom. Do you hear Michelle complaining? They have two beautiful, well mannered kids. Too bad we can't say that for most of the kids today. YOU should be praying that President Obama keeps doing what he is doing to stabilise the economy THAT GEORGE BUSH SCREWED UP and keep you employed. I lost 40% of my stock under George Bush and lots of my friends are currently UNEMPLOYED. For the last 3 months my stocks are on the rebound. This is what I want in a President. I couldn't care less whether or not he can throw a stupid ball. Most of the prople who can throw a ball did not graduate with a law degree from Harvard, SO GO GET A LIFE AND PRAY THAT HE STAYS IN THE WHITE HOUSE FOR ANOTHER TERM TO SAVE US ALL. ...

Uh, Positive Thinker,

Better check your facts on who screwd up the economy. You might also want to check which party had control of the House & Senate during Bush's last term. I for one WILL NOT pray for him to stay in office. Our country can't afford a president and congress that has quadrupled the debt in less than a year. And he wants to spend more..... Time for you to get a life and quit wandering around in your Obama trance muttering "yes we can".

Listen Ron Henry,

Don't you know that you have to spend in order to earn and that also grows the econmy? Where were you when Bush was allowing all the American jobs to be sent to India? Can you find a Souvenir in the United States that was not made in China?  I worked for one of the largest Corporations in the country and this company is now one of the smallest - employee wise- only because the jobs are now in India and the Americans are now unemployed. It's racist people like you that would rather have a white illiterate President than an educated one that is black and is fighting for change for all americans black,white and navy blue. Why don't you talk about the billions of American dollars that were spent liberating oil rich Iraq and the thousands of U.S soldiers that died stupidly for a war that Bush sent them into looking for WMD. We lost 3K in 9/11. and quadrupled that in Iraq. Where is the logic. I'll keep praying for Mr. Obama because when he turns this country around and re-earn the respect for America that was lost aound the world, people like you will owe him and apology. God Bless President Obama.
