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!

[ride the whirlwind]

Yup, he's an oppotunist-style politician. sKerry's sudden love of baseball is reminiscent of Hitlery's love affair with the Yankees. As for the polls, I believe they are untrustworthy in many instances. If sKerry seems even with GWB its because of the ABB (Anyone but Bush) syndrome more than anything else.

"So... Kerry plans a secret trip to his hometown, and Bush planned a secret trip to Baghdad... compare and contrast, friends. "

That says it all.

[Liz]

LOL....a metaphor for his campaign........low-down and too short.

[nuffsenuff]

Most people watching ESPN aren't liberals.

They can try all they want. This was a bad move having that homo bounce a pitch in front of home plate WITHOUT even being on the mound.

He's been tagged a DORK. There's not getting out from under that.

Somebody find a picture of Mary Jo Kopeckne (I don't know how to post images). That girl in the white top behind Kerry looks just like her!

[ohioWfan]

See now..........I'm a 'girl' and I throw MUCH better than that......

My question.......why would he use the first pitch at a MLB game as a photo op when he can't throw??

I really DO hope the President was watching!

[golas1964]

I thought M. Moore was out. Did Kerry flip-flop again???

[Vigilantcitizen]

That is just doggone eerie.

[michaelt]

Yeah, I was hoping the Red Sox would stop scoring runs so they'd stop showing Kerry. (You probably had two reasons for stopping the Red Sox scoring ;-) ) I ended up changing the channel. My wife has control of the box now, and I'm FReeping instead. This is much more enjoyable, and the picture comments are priceless.

Does anyone know if there is a audio link of kerry getting booed?

[MJY1288]

I hope Michael Moore introduces John Kerry and Whoopie Goldberg will escort Kerry to the podium

[hobson]

Moore: I'm now welcome at convention

Michael blames it on some low level person but it sounds like Kerry to me.

[SlickWillard]

Somebody find a picture of Mary Jo Kopeckne (I don't know how to post images). That girl in the white top behind Kerry looks just like her!

[CaraM]

Do you have the pic with W and Laura kissing? (as a contrast)

[hobson]

That would be priceless!

[Guillermo]

LOL, wouldn't that be typical.

Although since Posada's a millionaire, he would try to marry his wife if he could.

[NYCVirago]

ESPN has turned this into part of the Democrat convention - all Kerry, all the time. F'n even high-fived Kevin Millar after his HR and ESPN gushed.

Rudy Giuliani is a superfan when it comes to the Yankees. But I've never seen him give a player a high five during the game! I'm ready to puke now. Kentucky Fried Kevin is a disgrace, too.

[txrangerette]

I see what you mean.

[Colonel_Flagg]

Additional thought, why couldn't he throw to the catcher instead of using an Afghanistan vet as a prop?

Because a big league catcher's return throw might have wiped the Botox off him? :)

[Petronski]

Just read this on DU, had to share it:

kerry is an athlete and he talks with his actions and not with his words and when you get him in the places he is comfortable you see the man inside and you understand why Teresa married this wonderful man.

Bwa ha ha ha ha ha! [Petronski dabs tears from eyes]
