U.S. President Barack Obama throws out the ceremonial first pitch prior to Major League Baseball's All-Star game in St. Louis July 14, 2009.
U.S. President Barack Obama embraces St. Louis Cardinals baseball player Albert Pujols after Obama threw the ceremonial first pitch prior to the start of Major League Baseball's All-Star game in St. Louis, July 14, 2009
Obama: "I love saying your name....hee hee....Poo holes....heheh..."
Yes, the catcher was behind the plate for Bush, and what a beautiful pitch it was. And I saw the video many times. And also Bush was wearing a heavy bullet proof vest and did not practice. I read something that Obama was practicing his pitch prior to the game
This is the pitch that we should never forget. George Bush - throwing it right down the middle. 2001 World Series
Pitch is at 2:49 into the video - Brings tears to my eyes every time I see it

“I can’t find the picture, but watching the comparison on Fox News of when Bush pitched the ball, the catcher was well behind the plate.”
I found the video. See post 83 PERFECT PITCH
Oooh, looks like he got the limp wrist position from John Effin Kerry!
BALL 1
Those crappy fitting jeans looked old and nasty, like he’d been working in the yard before showing up having won a “pretend to be president” for a day contest.....all his “hey bro” chest bumps and handshakes made him look weak and unprofessional. He wants people to see him as approachable but instead he lowers the standards and authority of his office.
I just watched the video of President Bush’s famous pitch and I noticed something strange. After 9/11 there was plenty of security, but Obama has soldiers lining the field.
Didn’t see the soldiers, but did y’all hear the boos when Obama took the field? They got drowned out only by the cheers for Musial, when Obama went to shake his hand. For the first time in my adult lifetime, I was really proud of the St. Louis fans. By the way, it was a complete diss of Yadier Molina, to have Pujols take his place to catch the ball. Maybe Yadi refused to stand in front of the plate to take a pitch from a girly man.
Once those press pleated jeans made their appearance, one had to know it could only go downhill from there.
Looks like swombody nees some OJT...

There are at least 2 soldiers in that one shot. And yes, the DUmmies were ranting about the boos. LOL
(No wonder he nominated Thonia Thotomayor!)
Sorry! But I believe You should apologize to all good Douchebags everwhere for your unintentional demeaning statement about attributing “The ONE” to their group!
That said, AMEN!
As RUSH said today: “The Girlie Boythrows a Girlie Blooper!”
