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!

Good job on the video. I checked out the Broadband one and saved both of those to my computer desktop.

Thanks.

[Jedi Master Yoda]

Which went further, Kerry throwing out the first pitch at Fenway or Kerry throwing his medals over the fence?????

Thanks, Doc, I will.

"I remember that! I also remember him reminiscing about his college years and pitching for harvard."

Bush was on the freshman baseball team at Yale, where he went to college. He went to graduate business school at Harvard.

"Also, I wonder if Kerry got to meet his favorite player, "Manny Ortez," before the game."

---

He didn't really say that his favorite player was "Manny Ortez," did he? I mean, not only conflating Manny Ramirez and David Ortiz, but spelling Ortiz wrong?!? Too bad his all-time favorite Red Sox player Eddie Yost is no longer with the team---even worse for him, Yost never played for the Red Sox!

[AuH2ORepublican]

ROTFL!

[AuH2ORepublican]

Oh my! There goes another keyboard!

I don't know what's worse, his girlish grip or his ridiculous face. That phony-baloney probably hasn't had a Duff beer in his life!

[AuH2ORepublican]

Did Kerry think he was back at the NAACP convention? Or is he giving his patented "black power" fist to David Ortiz?

[backinthefold]

took me FOREVER to find the troll... but had sooo much fun reading this thread

thanks :)

"Was Kerry's pitch the "bounce" they were looking for at the convention?"

---

I think that's the only bounce they'll get.

[AuH2ORepublican]

"And this is the guy who thought "Manny Ortez" played for the Red Sox, too"

---

I just realized something: Don't ask me how I know this, but there is a Democrat lobbyist in DC called Manny Ortiz. Maybe Kerry didn''t just conflate Manny Ramirez and David Ortiz, it could have been a Freudian slip.

[KnutCase]

You are both correct. Heard on talk radio today (boortz, I think) that the soldier was to throw out first pitch. Kerry preempted him. Then after spending 10 minutes seated in the same box with Kerry was escorted by security to the LAST row to finish out the game. This, when fully reported, will backfire on Kerry. We shall see.

"What's John Glenn doing with his hand? Is that rapid flip flopping the American Sign language hand movement for Kerry?"

---

It's the woman sitting behind Glenn who is clapping.

Glenn appears to be looking over ar Kerry, thinking "I can't believe I have to campaign with that dork."

[piasa]

can't be that woman clapping- she's not wearing a suit but the arm iswearing a suit's sleeve- and it's the same color as Glenn's. That's gotta be the waffle signal- or else Glenn still has a NASA electrode attached there.

[piasa]

Maybe kerry's got the remote control.

With few exceptions, if they are still Democrats, they're uninformed.
