I think the FReepers know what to do with this one....

[Genoa]

Please don’t ruin baseball.

[rovenstinez]

I’m sure she’ll do a good job. Thumbs up.

[raccoonradio]

During the seventh inning stretch, the Yankees welcome back Ronan Tynan who will sing “Springtime For Hitler”.

[Mengerian]

Ral smart. These two witches can be assured they won’t be heckled, using veterans as shields for the boos the Biden and Obama wives know they’d get.

[Mengerian]

Ugh. I meant “Real smart.”

[Phantom Lord]

Can’t let Michelle throw the pitch. She would probably reach the plate. Unlike Barack.

[Eva]

M. Obama doesn’t have the nerve to appear with some of the families of those who have lost their lives in Afghanistan, while her husband has been playing golf.

[La Enchiladita]

I know. Sickening, heartbreaking, they sully everything they touch. Worth noting: the Mr. will not be there, nor was he even in the country on opening day. The POTUS on Opening Day and first game of WS, we know, is an iron-clad tradition. We know that... shhhh, don’t tell him.

[manc]

besides go on vacation, being entertained then what else does this first lady do??????

I honestly I have never known a lazier first lady in my life.
She does nothing.
Hillary womens right
Laura education
but what on earth are her causes and what on earth does she do for them

These no show jobs are certainly for her alright.

[Eva]

I was thinking the same thing, they are hiding behind veterans. I think that we should try to get a family up there, who has lost someone in Afghanistan, while Obama has been playing golf.

Appropriate, since her husband is causing many more “wounded vets” by refusing to support them with reinforcements.

[albie]

Now Michelle can get her jeans back from BO to wear for the occassion!

[La Enchiladita]

It’s raining... a slight chance of rain-out.

Didn’t I tell you? I thought he would mooch it... but he was busy signing the _______ HATE CRIMES BILL!

OT: BTW, two questions asked, the questions were not responded to... as you figured.

My brother’s sending me video later.

You can't expect the Queen to work, can you?

[La Enchiladita]

Tony Odierno will make it a beautiful moment, doesn't matter who else is there or wrongly glorified by media. Notice how WaPo doesn't even mention his rank or branch of service....

CAPT. TONY ODIERNO, SON OF ARMY GENERAL: The first one they shot hit my vehicle. It went through my door, took off that arm, and it killed my driver. Bleeding uncontrollably, one arm shot off, Tony climbed through the gunners's hatch and tried to help his buddies before he collapsed. It was courage any father would be proud of, especially the tough general who had commanded the 4th Infantry Division, a division responsible for Saddam Hussein's capture.

The game should be held in Afgahnistan. Maybe then we could get Soetoro to send more troops to guard his precious beard.

Frowning takes 68 muscles.
Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.
I'm lazy.
