President Obama is supposed to throw out the first pitch at this month’s major league baseball all-star game. But based on the way he threw at the recent White House Tax-and-Spend, Cap-and-Trade, Luau-and-Funfest, that first pitch video could become an instant YouTube classic.
The studliest president in history and Obama throws like a girl.
7/15/09 Update: Turns out Barack Obama pitched like a girl at the Major League Baseball All Star Game as well. We hear Fox didn’t show the pitch landing due to Obama’s media request since he didn’t want to be embarrassed on TV.
7/15/09 Update II: We found a video that shows where the pitch actually landed. Sorry Fox, your protection of him did not work.
We’ve also published a related article on this: First pitch at all-star game symbolic of Obama’s presidency: It came up a bit short.

Hey. Stop insulting girls :p
Here's how a real man throws a baseball. George W. Bush throwing the first pitch at the 2001 World Series. Ste-rike!
We just updated the article with the video of Barack Obama throwing out the first pitch at the Major League Baseball All-Star game. He had that same throws like a girl pitching arm. Quite a few boos in the audience, among the cheers, by the way. We hear Fox didn’t show the pitch landing due to Obama’s media request since he didn’t want to be embarrassed on TV--can anyone verify this?
I would say the boos vs. cheers went something like this:
Boos - 5%
Cheers - 99%
Just hollering - 10%
The above figures were provided by the math guru and #1 Lib, Tim Geithner. He done knowd math gud!
The real figures:
Boos - 43%
Cheers - 46%
Just hollering - 11%
That is close to King Barry's approval ratings as shown on Fox this evening. Don't quote me. I know I could be wrong. If I were a libtard I would tell you these numbers are ACCURATE and nothing you say could change them. :-)
How a president throws a ball: the real political issues of today according to conservatives.
Once again, liberals proving that liberals have no sense of humor. Perhaps you didn't read the subhead under the title of our site: "If we didn't laugh we'd cry." Lighten up man, have some fun!
"The real political issues?" Well, I was with about 500 patriots at a Tea Party today working together to try and head off complete tryanny in this previously free country.
What did you do for your country today, Matt Bob?
must be because he is a white sox fan...haha...
didnt bush get ripped for having BBQ's because they dumbed down the white house?
This guy does this and its wonderful thing....slanted anyone?
Reminds me of the Bush/Kerry photo comparison regarding football, with Dubya looking like he was about to rifle a forward pass while Lurch looked like a total maryann too afraid to catch the ball thrown to him.
Let's "Waterboard" the entire cabinet!
My boss' daughter dunks Rahm at 20 seconds. He was pretty proud.
Wonder if he'll roll this experience into big laughs about Special Olympics on some late night talk show?
