that was a pitch?? looked a bit prissy
Obama shocker.
He throws like a girl.
I didn't expect that. But, then again, there was that bowling incident, so I should have been prepared........
wow, double-digit unemployment, California issuing IOU's, economy imploding etc and the Prez has time for junkets to Europe, Africa etc as well as the odd "date night" to NYC and tossing the ball out at the All-Stars...no wonder nothing is getting done in D.C.. Voters for Big O are in for a world of hurt, the man is an empty vessel. Enjoy.
You think Obama's pitch was sissy? Take a look at dub-ya's picture above. lol
