'I would not let my son play football': Obama
The New York Post ^ | 1/19/2014 | Sean Piccoli

A football career would be out of bounds for any son of President Obama, who compared the game to smoking in an interview with The New Yorker.

“I would not let my son play pro football,” the First Fan said in a POTUS profile for the magazine’s Jan. 27 issue.

The president’s love of sports is well documented, and his favorite NFL team is the Pittsburgh Steelers. And while football’s escalating head-injury crisis is reason enough to keep a kid he doesn’t have off the field, it’s no reason to stop watching, he told Remnick.

Football is primarily an American sport. Of course a muslime from Kenya wouldn’t want his demon son playing.

apparently he doesn’t allow his daughters to play golf, either. He spends half his weekend and vacay time getting away from his family

Ok, let me spell it out for you: the numeral one comes before the numeral two, unless you are counting backwards.

“The Homo speaks”

He’s out to eliminate the competitive masculine sport of football, an American tradition.

Meanwhile how many deaths has their been to being a male homosexual from aids?

Remember what they said the most dangerous place for a black baby is in the womb...but that’s okay too.

Just not football. Too many concussions.

Ever true to his dictatorial ways, Obama won’t “allow” his non-existent son play “PRO” football nor let his daughters get pregnant. But I bet he would be okay with his son doing drugs and skipping classes in school and his daughters getting an abortion, if they made a “mistake”.

What a true leader. /s/ What a putz.

I can taste it coming it up in my throat. Gotta run to the head before I ruin my keyboard and monitor.

I’ll bet he also wouldn’t let his son join the military. He might get hurt.

I told my sons they couldn’t play football either. Didn’t want them to get hurt. But my husband overrode me, and they both played. They weren’t first string, so they didn’t really play that much. And neither of them got hurt.

Let me spell it out for you. The numerical one in a thread is part of the original post that created the thread. How do you propose to ever "get in before" the poster who created the thread? You can't. The number two post in a thread is always the first response in a thread.

You apparently feel so compelled to play the part of agitator that you are willing to make a fool of yourself to do so. Have at it. The fact remains, you could not "get in before" number one when number one is part pf the original poster's creation of the thread. Your argument is senseless, but that's not uncommon for agitators like yourself. So be it.

Bye.

This particular poster is known for being an agitator. And it is senseless.
