I have a gift for 0bama. However, it was flushed.
His teammates called him “the ape.”

And as any 80 year old guy would tell you (paraphrasing Rahm)... Never let an urgency go to waste.
My particular favorite: “It’s Dejavu all over again.”
Berra purportedly said, “Da’ way dis Obama economy’s goin’, a nickle ain’t worth a dime anymore...”
Keep your mouth off Yogi, Obama. He’s an American and is proud of it.
I pulled two things from this story.
One is, Yogi signed the photo of the first black ballplayer with a note, “He was out”. That seems like a little subliminal message to our first black president to me.
The other thing is, Obama’s layers of protection are so strong he somehow can’t get a picture from a great, old, legend like Yogi. I may be totally wrong here, but I bet Bush would have heard about this and gotten this picture, if he was president - and responded, yet. IMHO, Obama’s just a little too well insulated in his new party place to be in touch with the “little people”.
