Kerry just flubbed the opening pitch at the Yanks-Sox game

Kerry just 'threw' out the opening pitch at the Boston-Yankees game. Just saw Kerry pitch a really weak opening pitch, well short of the plate, bouncing under the catcher. What a poser!

[El Gato]

Why is the catcher dressed in fatigues and a Green Beret??

Just Kerry exploiting a MA National Guard soldier who just returned from the war zone. The beret is not green, but black. It's the Shinseki "Army of One" beret (which would have been Made in China, if not for the shiitestorm that ensued when the DoD under the 'toon tried to buy them from the PRC, and got caught before the fact)).

[ontos-on]

After the pitch comes up short and rolls past the "catcher", Kerry pumped his fist in the air in triumph. Guess he ignored the booing sounds too huh??

HAHAHAHHAHAHA

that's the politican's way--smile and pump your fist while your flat on your ass--it will look like you hit a homer, and the majority of people might not catch it. Same with that pointing--at no one really--it makes them look like tehy know lots of people and that they are gettign lots of good reactions from warm and friendly non-existent supporters. That's the media age.

I agree. He has no plan because he's incapable of making a decision and we all know he has no guiding principles. The bureaucracy he has created in his campaign is NOT going to help him either.

[Sacajaweau]

And in Team USA dress...not Sox!

[kcvl]

"It's great to be back in Boston for a game like this," Kerry said afterward. "Couldn't miss it."

THE PITCH THAT FELL SHORT

Wonderful epitaph for the Kerry/Edwards campaign!

By the powers vested in me by the state of inebriation, I hereby dub this thread a Classic.

[NavySEAL F-16]

I agree. And, all we'd hear is about Kerry doing it first, blah, blah,.... I couldn't take it.

[hispanarepublicana]

Okay....ya'll have GOT TO DO your Christian duty and QUIT POSTING these photos of Pres. Bush that cause me to think "sinful thoughts" of our President.....

Did he really?

Spittin' image!

Ghost, John Kerry, Ghost! Ted Kennedy will bring you down. You will end up on the bottom just like his party friend.

Thunderstorm just knocked out my satellite - thank you God! I love baseball too much too turn away from the ESPN convention coverage, so it was done for me!

[golas1964]

It does look good. Supposedly DIRECTV is 'format agnostic' with regard to HD.
But seeing Kerry's ugly mug in high definition was a little too much 'Reality TV'!

[Sacajaweau]

I'm sure this soldier was to walk to the pitchers plate and throw the ball. It doesn't even "seem right in my mind" that he was suppose to be in the catcher's position. It simply doesn't make sense. It was a patriotic gesture turned into a dud by Kerry. But then, that's Kerry!!

[Major_Risktaker]

Who is J. Forbes Kerry?

Can't Kiss!

Can't Catch!

Can't Ride

Can't Pitch!

Can't be Trusted!

Can't Lead!

Vote Bush!

Leadership
Pitches From The Top
Of The Mound.

And the same media which knew the trip was pre-planned passes on his lies hook, line and sinker.

I am listening to Drudge and have twice heard ABC radio news report this as a spontaneous decision. Somehow, no matter how deeply I know what the mainstream media is, I am stunned each time they broadcast lies.

[NonValueAdded]

Updating my sign for tomorrow's Kerry FReep ... Kerry throws like a girl!!! No wonder he was a no show at the appointed time; waffled on his schedule and went to Fenway. In retrospect, I'll bet he wished he went to Florida on schedule. Sounds like he could use some spring training. SEND HIM DOWN TO THE MINORS!

[daybreakcoming]

***John Kerry has not presented a single detail of his so called "Plan". He tells everybody that he has a plan, but he has yet to detail it.***

He knows that anyone with half a brain will LOL themselves silly over it.

[beyond the sea]

Mary Jo IS damn cute, eh? That Kennedy had some good taste.

I wonder who that really is. I'd like a date.
