Enjoy Your Trip?
Thank the Lord that we (in the advanced nations, at least) are living in the modern age.
No need to fear death by axe/arrow/sword, no foul plagues (touch wood…) and no sacrificing perfectly good virgins to appease angry imaginary gods.
And, of course, we now have the video camera.
As if yesterday’s video of various Russkies refusing to shake Obama’s hand wasn’t enough to nourish my soul, now along comes footage of Obama stacking it when attempting to walk through an open doorway.
Dumbass!
Were I president, however, there would probably be little else but video of me being clumsy and/or offending people, so I could cut Barry some slack.
But then I remembered that he throws like an aborted fetus.

For all the complaints I have against BarryO, I can’t say much about hookin’ a toe on the doorway. I can laugh like a lunatic, but I can’t talk. That would be rank hypocrisy.
Note to delinquent dads who don’t care about their kids: If your son grows up without a loving and secure relationship with his dad, he’ll end up a selfish brat who throws like a girl. You don’t want that; I don’t want that. So do the right thing.

I think he was just all messed up from his TelePrompter breaking…dude just didn’t know what to do after that.

innominatus, I love American colloquialisms, so thank you for introducing me to “hookin’ a toe.”
Steve, that was indeed traumatic, but I think it’ll take time before we see Barry’s real grief.

inno, I did a compare-and-contrast of The Boy King’s throw-out during the all-star game to some of the first pitches Bush did. The former does throw like a girl and the latter has some heat.
Actually, the first pitches of each are like a metaphor for the way they do their jobs: Bush is quiet, unassuming and delivers the ball to the plate while ‘Bammy glad hands everyone in the park and spazzes out on the mound.

Ah ha! Check out this Powerline Blog post on the Spazz-in-Chief’s soup bone:
“His entrance was shrewdly orchestrated. The cheers and boos started as soon as he came onto the field, but he was steered immediately over to shake hands with Stan Musial — the most beloved player in the history of the Cardinals. No true St. Louis fan would boo Satan if he was shaking hands with Stan the Man. The president then went straight to the mound, where today’s Stan the Man, the great Pujols, took good care of him — quickly embracing Obama right after making sure his heave looked borderline respectable … with a little help from the cameras. Finally, Obama moved was ushered quickly over to the third-base line, where Cardinal legends Bob Gibson, Ozzie Smith, and Lou Brock (among others) were there to share warm-handshakes.”

Stumble Bum barry sure made an ass of himself. You are two for two with the great video’s now. Yesterday’s handshake snub was priceless too. I think the Ruskies were afraid of catching something from that creep.
Did you see another great video that takes some of these elements. I put on my blog! Take a look when you get a chance. I LOVED the booing too, and your friend above breaks down the orchestration. I’m from Chicago and barry and his bunch amaze me with their sneaky games.
