  1. Tyler,
    I don’t remember seeing you on Rabble, or HuPo arguing that we should all give Bush II the benefit of the doubt.
    Here’s a helpful political hint for you… if the guy in charge is doing a crappy job, you tell him, and he improves. Cheering someone who sucks is how you get the Toronto Maple Leafs…

  2. clearly dogbert… the catcher is standing just in front of the home plate… er, I guess that doesn’t help does it? 🙂
    tyler durden in all caps… I think it is that, if B.Hussien is successful, the USA will fail.. we’d like the USA to succeed as a model of freedom, and we (generally) believe, that B. Hussien is not on that team.
    also, your use of the phrase “you retard” is offensive firstly, and secondly it fails the standards of english that most adults adhere to after completion of grade 8. Correctly stated, that would be, “you are retarded” or, “you’re retarded”. You’re usage is just barely on the other side of the colloquial “yous” as spoken by Sylvester Stallone.

  3. ” The man pitches like he golfs.”
    And he golfs like he bowls.
    “Some boos mostly cheers though” I didn’t hear any boos when I heard it first on the web, compressed into an MP3, but when I heard it broadcast quality, there were obviously a *lot* of boos. Sounded like 50/50 to me.
    Rush, whose first real job involved setting up first pitches for the KC Royals, had what sounded to me like a bang on analysis.
    He wore the White Sox jacket and hat on purpose. The Sox are not hated in St Louis, the Cubs are. You heard the lone Cubby get booed in the introductions. He wore the jacket to explain the boos they knew were coming.
    They also arranged for him to be on the field with the two most popular men in the St Louis baseball world, Stan Musual and Albert Puholz (who played like he was on drugs, BTW)
    They arranged the camera angle to not show whether the pitch crossed the plate. They didn’t throw to the catcher, which I have *never* seen, but to Puholz, who was in front of the plate, and he *still* bounced it.
    Stay in denial though libs. You will be far easier to roll.
    I am sure your Robinhood plan to take health care away from the elderly and give it to the poor, who won’t waste their health on watching TV and playing Bingo and eating early bird specials will prove a big hit next fall.

  4. “I just don’t understand all of this trashing of his character ”
    We aren’t trashing his character, we are exposing it. What have we said that is not true? If you consider speaking the truth to be trashing, then maybe you ought to re-examine your knob slobbering love for the guy.

  5. BTW, he flounces his but around in that video like the gay prostitute from Reno 911.

  8. perhaps they should have got Michelle with her magnificent arms to throw. and with her well endowed lower centre of gravity she could really put the mustard on it
    I never boo. I was taught that is unsportsmanlike. best to just stay quiet.
    I also applaud the other team in victory and frequently applaud well scored goals.
    strange behaviour from a different era. thanks Mr. Walls.

  9. Opitcherama boasted that Michelle said he looked ‘cute’ in his Sox jacket. And he pitched so cute too!!! What an embarrassment as POTUS!!

  10. “in victory and frequently applaud well scored goals”
    I remember Jagr scored a goal against my team, the Panthers, and it was so pretty, spontaneous applause broke out, not like that ‘pitch’.

  11. I think we can cut the guy some slack just because he can’t throw a baseball. However, if it wasn’t for the fact that a Gold Glover was receiving the toss, it would have rolled to the screen and been scored a wild pitch. On the other hand, throwing out the first pitch at the All-Star Game is an enormous honour. You would have thought that Obama would have taken some time from his busy schedule and worked on his delivery just a little bit. Maybe a game of catch with Biden.

  13. I noticed that he threw the ball using his left hand. That would make him a ‘lefty’. I suppose, we already… kind of knew that.

  17. C’mon give the man a break. He has been in office a scant six months and he has already reversed global warming.Also,if someone actually went up north and counted the polar bears,they would find that there are more than ever.They are not facing extinction like they were during the Bush/Cheney years. God bless you Mr. Obama,you make me tingle.

  18. But seriously folks…Obama is going down in the polls. He has certainly not lived up to his advance billing. This is because way too many Americans saw him through race-coloured glasses. They voted so they could make history.Unfortunately,those who pointed out that the emperor had no clothes,or as someone here once said,the suit has no emperor,were put down as being ‘racist’. An unintended consequence of this shallow thoughtless voting is that the next time a black person runs to be POTUS,many will recall Obama’s record and may not vote for a capable candidate. I do hope that Obama does well ,but with every passing week that prospect looks less likely.

  19. SVG said; Anybody who booed him is wrong. It’s wrong to boo your country’s President.
    Really ? Why don’t you sing that tune to the Liberals who bashed Bush for 8.5 years and still are. Double Standard there, Bud.
    I sang that tune to lefties (I don’t really consider them liberals) who depicted Bush as Hitler, etc. I agree that there is a double standard, but I’m not applying it. It was and is wrong of the lefties, and it’s wrong of those of us who oppose Obama’s policies to boo him. Criticism and disagreement are fine, and I practice both with some frequency. Booing the President is not. As the military says, “salute the rank, not the man.”

  20. God I’d like to get behind this, but no, I hear maybe one guy booing behind the wall of applause.
    As for this “plays like a girl” business (why I oughta…); just wait ’till he participates in the annual Swim Across the Potomac! That’ll learn ya.

  21. “I hear maybe one guy booing behind the wall of applause”
    I thought so too ’til I heard a broadcast quality version. It is unmistakable, and it it is pretty thunderous for one or two guys. It sounds equal to the cheers to me, and I don’t know how any broadcast engineer could enhance them, since they were both at about the same frequency. It is not a low Booo, like they might have done for Lou Brock. First hand reports say it was 50/50. Don’t argue with the lefties though. It is better to leave them in denial. The punch bowl is getting pretty empty at their party though.

  22. OK, can’t golf, bowl, or play baseball. Irrelevant to the major point – can’t run a government.
    But a 16 handicap with that swing? Not a friggin’ chance. I was a 9, but I’m worse now. I could spot him 2 strokes a hole for 5,000 each, and end up with a new Mercedes.

  23. all the words and all the bullshit doesn’t change the fact that the guy is a dangerous commie. commie is a word that best describes the big o. he is a commie and a really big a hole.

  24. Re:TYLER DURDEN
    Its not only Obama with his suspect gang of associates…Its members of Democratic party… which include; Joe Biden, Nancy Pelosi…speaker of the house, originally nominated by Rham Emanuel(How cozy), Harry Reid, John Murtha, Barbara Boxer, Robert Byrd…former KKK member who is quoted as saying “I shall never fight in the armed forces with a Negro by my side… Rather I should die a thousand times, and see Old Glory trampled in the dirt never to rise again, than to see this beloved land of ours become degraded by a race of mongrels, a throwback to the blackest specimen from the wilds. ”
    — Robert C. Byrd, in a letter to Sen. Theodore Bilbo (D-MS), 1944.
    Richard Durbin, Dianne Feinstein, Charles Schumer, House majority leader Steyny “The crook” Hoyer, Ted Kennedy…the list goes on. With characters like these at the helm how do you invision a satisfactory outcome?

  25. “I just think the man is going to be president for Eight years and we should all hope that he is sucessful and the world will be a better place when his term is complete”
    Tyler has convinced me. I am now going to give Obama every benefit of the doubt that the Democrats gave Bush, on account of respect for his office, and all. Every benefit that the Democrats gave Bush, and nothing short of that lofty standard. I promise Tyler, cross my heart, hope to die, stick a needle in my eye. -tim
    For those of you who think that tearing down Obama is wrong and unpatriotic, remember what the left taught us “Dissent *is* patriotic”. Look who is in power now, and look what tactics they use.
    Does anybody know where I can get a bumper sticker printed up that says “Nobody tell Obama what comes after a trillion!”

    “For those of you who think that tearing down Obama is wrong and unpatriotic, remember…..”
    Another analogy – Is it tearing down or hypocritical if you never supported him in the first place?
    Obamba was never “UP” in my vocabulary to be torn down. I’ve always viewed him as the race baiting, socialist death blow to America that the greater world has been praying for. America didn’t vote for Obamba, a hate filled & desperately dependant and indulgent segment of America did, along with the rest of its global enemies.
    All the slogan junkies, latte’ lappers, idealists, pole smokers and entitlement groups (dregs on society)……………..are slowly catching on.

  27. He’s the President of the United States.
    He has the opportunity, given to few, to be a great man.
    We’ll see if he has it in him.
    So far, he appears to be shockingly naive and more concerned with his image than with the consequences of his actions.
    Maybe he’ll smarten up.
    But, I wouldn’t bet the farm on it.

  28. pok I agree but as I see it he is betting your farm, your small business, your job and your way of life on it.

  29. Black Mamba: “God I’d like to get behind this, but no, I hear maybe one guy booing behind the wall of applause.”
    To me, the booing is unmistakable, though it’s overshadowed by the cheers.
    Interestingly, it’s CBC that provides proof that the booing took place. When my wife returned from work and I was talking with her about the incident at the game last night, she told me that Obama was booed because he wore a White Sox jacket. I asked her where she got this (ridiculous) idea. She said that she had heard it on CBC Newsworld during a coffee break (she’s not a baseball fan and had no reason to doubt the explanation).
    This is interesting on two levels. First, if even the world’s greatest and most delusional Obama koolaid drinkers acknowledge that booing took place, then you can be damn sure that booing took place. Second, CBC’s explanation is further proof (if proof were needed) of the CBC’s need to spin anything potentially negative about Obama, even to the point of flat out making stuff up.
    Oh, and a third point. We now know the source of Tyler Durden’s silly explanation for the cause of the booing.

  30. If he were wearing a Cubs hat, I could see them booing that. The White Sox are just not hated in St Louis. I spend a lot of time there. Billboard advertisements for hamburger chains play on hatred of the Cubs. White Sox rarely play in St Louis. Different league, three games every three years.

  31. it must drive the leftards crazy that George Bush had the same athleticism as the average guy- could throw from the mound to the plate without looking like a girl and could also swing a golf club and ride a mountain bike, just like the average guy. the messiah on the other hand seems to be the goof who was always picked last for teams which sent him into politics. the leftards relate to the losers who were always picked last which is why they invent stuff like Obama’s 16 handicap (BWAHAHAHAHA), he should golf with the other dear leader (of North Korea) sometime it would probably be the first time 2 people shoot identical scores of 18.

  32. Obama not only throws like a pansy he has his mother in law living with him. The US has a Beta male pretending to run the country.

  35. “Kate, I understand that you and 99% of the folks who visit this site are upset that Obama is president but why the need to post such accuracy? Why do you all want him to succeed so bad? Give the man a fair shot. All this criticism is starting to come across as truth. It’s going to get real old after 1 year.”
    FIFY, Tyler

  36. Listen to those “USA” chants after Bush’s pitch. Spontaneous!
    It takes a “communtiy organizer” to achieve less than that.

  39. And, don’t get me started about the Gov’t run whorehouse in Nevada that couldn’t turn a profit.
    Hey, Ratt, if you have a link for that, could you pls share it? I gotta add that one for future use… !
    Does anybody know where I can get a bumper sticker printed up that says “Nobody tell Obama what comes after a trillion!”
    hahaha – that’s brilliant, Tim! I’d put one on my bumper, except it’d likely mean getting turned around at the border.

  40. Booing? Every little bit of public display that let’s people know there are others who are not eating the soma is a good thing. The message is that this guy is not above our contempt. Obama is a fraud and deserves all the scorn he gets.
    And BTW – SVJ ….. It’s not like he was at an official state event now is it? Nor is it likely to get weeks of replay at the hands of the MSM… now is it?
    Payback is a Bytch.

  42. I happened to see the all-star game with a bunch of friends at a local Shoeless Joe’s and I think that Obama came across pretty good overall.
    There were boos for Obama at first because Fox was trying to get Obama to show up at Busch to boost ratings. When Obama agreed to show up a couple of weeks ago dampers were put on the size of the celebration for Stan the Man in order for Obama to appear. The previous all-star game in St. Lou was 49 or so years ago (which is a very long time ago) and Stan the Man was there AND as someone who has been to Busch and seen the big statue of Stan out front can attest fans in St. Lou love Stan (in fact I thought he had died). Anyway, Missouri never went for Obama in the last election and some fans were upset that Stan should have had a bigger celebration – hence the boos. Obama must of known this because he gave Stan a pretty warm reception as did the fans when Stan was carted in with the baseball. Anyanyway, Fox had the highest ratings for an all-star game since 1999, and the Cards and St. Lou made a pile of dough because the all-star game is almost a week long event and it brought in a lot of people for all the festivities.

  44. Does anyone here except the trolls think for one second that unles this was put on Utube. No one would have heard of this? Did’nt think so.

  45. Breaking!
    Barry’s teleprompter, the one that broke this week, is being rebuilt and retrofited to be a teleprompter/baseball throwing device similar to the ones found at batting cages…Now, just like his speeches, which already contains curve, slide, fork and knuckle in it’s verbiage, the new multi million dollar device which had to be built “now” according to Barry, otherwise “America was going to be in a crisis”, will also serve at baseball ceremonial opening events.
    It is to note that the new custom made device will also be able to plug into stadium PA systems effectively drowning any live undesired ‘noises’ replacing them with wild cheers and whistling and possibly chants like “Obama! Obama!”.
    Asked about golf and bowling which dear leader tried recently, the White House spokesperson said they are still debating between building machines for that or providing their own audio/video shoots to the media. It is to note that Hollowood special effect specialists are being consulted for this.
    Oh, that Barry, when it comes to having his narcissism bruised, he’s a fast thinking boy.
    Barry, you da man!

  47. oneblankspace,
    I noticed that too. Roy Halladay (the best pitcher in baseball) and Aaron Hill both play for Toronto. What is worse is that Justin Morneau (for the Twins – and previous home run derby winner) and Jason Bay (for the Red Sox – and voted to the starting lineup for the AL) are both Canadian and proud of it and they are two of the best players in the Majors (I know that Jason took heat for becoming an American citizen last month – but his wife and kids are American – and there is only one team left in Canada – so he’s got to make the bucks in the US- and if I had to work in the US I would become a US citizen as well because they helped you earn a living and you got to respect that). However, they still should have had someone sing the Canadian National Anthem – I read some other American sports journalists and they also thought the Canadian Anthem should have been sung.
