President Barack Obama will throw out the first pitch at the 2009 Major League Baseball All-Star Game on Tuesday, July 14 at Busch Stadium in St. Louis.

President Obama will be the fourth U.S. President to throw out the first pitch at the Midsummer Classic joining John F. Kennedy, Richard Nixon, and Gerald Ford. President Obama will be the seventh U.S. President to attend the All-Star Game. The first U.S. President to attend an All-Star Game was Franklin D. Roosevelt in 1937.

QUESTIONS:

How will St. Louis greet Hussein? With cheers or jeers? And how will it be portrayed in the press? Will the Fox broadcast team take DOWN the audio of the boos...if there are any, and BOOST the audio of the cheers...if there are any?

I'll be at that game, and I guarantee you what he'll hear from our group won't be printable.

Given what the tix cost, I'd hazard a guess that very few of the Kenyan's drooling androids will be at the game. That view includes the wealthy Lefties, too -- they're not all that keen on anything labeled ''America's Pastime'' (or ''America's Anything'', for that matter.

Perfect. B. Hussein Obama (peace be upon him) will throw out the first pitch in an absolutely meaningless baseball game.

When the ball lands 40 feet short and 24 feet wide to the left, he’ll say it was a “Special Olympics” throw.

This joker is going to pitch like a girl from Kenya. The red SOB never played a ballgame in his life.

I was thinking I/our group might just turn our backs when he throws the ball. That way if someone hears me boo I wont be seized at the door. I can always say I was looking for my friends in the upper deck. LOL.

Sad that I have thoughts of being heard and looked for. Tin Foil, I guess.
