First he ruins the health care system.

They haven’t been this confused since they were trying to decide whether to bomb Syria.Listen, Mr. President, I understand that sports is one of many subjects you know absolutely nothing about. But trust me on this — tonight is going to be a big night for what the mayor calls “knuckleheads.”Local knuckleheads. Granted, you have proven beyond a doubt this month with Obamacare that you are by far the biggest 
knucklehead in the nation, but this is not where you belong tonight.This should be the night the Red Sox, or the Red Sock, as Mumbles calls them, wrap up what he last week termed the “World Serious Cup.”Mr. President, you don’t have to go home, but you can’t stay here.Imagine the posters you’ll see up in the stands tonight if you try to big-foot the celebration:“Obama Lied, My Health Care Died.”“You Owe Me $2,500.”“Ask Me About My Death Panel.”Why now? This trip has only been on the drawing board for a week or so. The White House had to know there was a better-than-even chance there would be a World Series game here tonight.Big day for the stores around Faneuil Hall. And now they’re shut down from 11 a.m. til 4 p.m. But who cares about them? They’re in the Dreaded Private Sector.Then there’s the gridlock in the middle of the afternoon commute (assuming, knock on wood, he leaves before the game). But what does Barack care about the commuters — they work for a living. Not Obama voters, in other words.This is how curses are born, hosting a guy who turns everything he touches to excrement. And you know damn well Obama would have to drift into the Fox broadcast booth for one of those painful chats like the one in Chicago where he talked about “Kaminsky” (rhymes with

He just tried to change the subject by saying his favorite team was really the Oakland A’s.When it comes to baseball lore, Barry makes John Kerry look like Bill James.Listen, Mr. President, I have an idea. If you decide to stick around, why don’t you send the limo over to Southie to pick up Auntie Zeituni while you’re harvesting big bucks at Alan Solomont’s mansion 
in Weston.Then the limo can pick you up and drive to Framingham, where you can meet your beloved Uncle Omar and buy a round for the house at the Chicken Bone.

Say it ain’t so, B.O.

How can we miss this guy when he won’t go away?

Yesterday, the White House was dithering back and forth over whether to go to Game 6 tonight. They haven’t been this confused since they were trying to decide whether to bomb Syria.

Listen, Mr. President, I understand that sports is one of many subjects you know absolutely nothing about. But trust me on this — tonight is going to be a big night for what the mayor calls “knuckleheads.”

Local knuckleheads. Granted, you have proven beyond a doubt this month with Obamacare that you are by far the biggest 
knucklehead in the nation, but this is not where you belong tonight.

This should be the night the Red Sox, or the Red Sock, as Mumbles calls them, wrap up what he last week termed the “World Serious Cup.”

Mr. President, you don’t have to go home, but you can’t stay here.

Imagine the posters you’ll see up in the stands tonight if you try to big-foot the celebration:

“Obama Lied, My Health Care Died.”

“You Owe Me $2,500.”

“Ask Me About My Death Panel.”

Why now? This trip has only been on the drawing board for a week or so. The White House had to know there was a better-than-even chance there would be a World Series game here tonight.

Big day for the stores around Faneuil Hall. And now they’re shut down from 11 a.m. til 4 p.m. But who cares about them? They’re in the Dreaded Private Sector.

Just stay out of Fenway Park, or is that Funway Field, Mr. President?

“Big day for the stores around Faneuil Hall. And now they’re shut down from 11 a.m. til 4 p.m. But who cares about them? They’re in the Dreaded Private Sector.”

How pissed off would you be if you owned one of these businesses in downtown Boston? You have big spenders coming into town from all country to go to the world series and you need to close down your business for part of the day.
Instead everyone will go over to Copley Plaza, Newbury Street, Boylston and Kenmore Square. People will stay away from Faneuil Hall all day because of this idiot.

I’d be LIVID! Beyond LIVID.

The Marxist has no business at that game.

The “RED” Sox are not his team, despite the name “RED,” if you get my implication.

That damn Marxist butts into everything imaginable.

Don’t we need that picture of him throwing a baseball like a panzy?

Patriots Day was also one of the biggest retails days for Boston this year before it got shut down.

Our president really loves to crap on America and all things American.

The guy is a one-man study in psychopathology.

You seem to be familiar with the area.

I wonder, do you think he would be BOOED if he did show up?

Or, being a DEEP BLUE state, would he be cheered and get a standing ovation?.........................

Obama will come, give his speech, and leave.

Well, I for one would welcome Dear Leader to come and watch the Red - wait, that's racist - the Scarlet Stockings kick the winning field goal in the World Serious Cup. Anyone with a golf handicap in the negative numbers is bound to be able to give his favorite player, Manny Ortiz, a few pointers.

There will be, I'm afraid, a few negative Nancies who will pout at the necessity of shutting the entire downtown area of Boston down as Dear Leader's motorcade comes speeding through but it will only be for a few hours, and if you're a loyal Party member (and who in Boston isn't?) you may be allowed to stand on the sidewalks for a glimpse of the Great One. Perhaps even - dare I hope it? - a wave and a curl of the imperial lip. It's good to see Dear Leader share a moment of his life with the little people, after all. Boston should be grateful.

He has a fund raiser for Nancy Pulosi in Weston at 8:00. Heard from an SEIU rep that he has someting going on in Winchester earlier. But the game doesn’t start until 8:00 so he has plenty of time to come back. No traffic will be allowed into Kenmore Square after the 6th Inning. So look for him to be at the 7th Inning Stretch.

I think most people would give him a smattering of applause
for the respect of the Office of the President of the United States(not the man).

However, if he jinxes the Sox and they lose, there could be a lynching.

RED SOX Nation takes their baseball very seriously.

Since I am not a baseball connoisseur, it doesn’t matter to me who wins or loses. But I am interested to see if the Boston Blue Bloods will Hail to Their Chief..............
