Barack Obama will be adding baseball broadcaster to his résumé. SI.com learned Sunday that the President will join Fox Sports announcers Joe Buck and Tim McCarver during Tuesday's All-Star Game. Obama is expected to be in the booth sometime between the third and fifth inning. SI.com reported earlier that the White House was considering Fox Sports' request to interview the President during the game.

Another presential boondoggle. Why can't they just talk to him from the WH, rather than spending hundreds of thousands of dollars to fly him to St. Louis?

[Rational Thought]

Gives me a good reason to miss the game.

[TommyDale]

One more reason to avoid watching the “All-Star” fiasco. Are they also going to break into the game with a bulletin advising us that Michael Jackson is still dead?

Why does this human fly have to contaminate everything in the country...?

[A. Morgan]

Isn’t the DUMBA@@ on TV enough already? GEEEZ

[Piquaboy]

I am tired of looking at that POS so I will make sure I do not watch that game.

[Mrs.Z]

Does this joker EVER work?

No wait...

maybe it’s better if he NEVER goes back to the office...

we’ll be that much less sc###ed.

Is he [Obama] going to show off his sports prowess by statiing the obvious? “Albert Pujols is a really good player.”

[CASchack]

The Celebrity President.

He’s making public appearances to promote the top priority on his agenda: himself.

So, I will NOT be watching this sh*t. Is there ANYTHING this POS won’t do to get on TV?

[SoFloFreeper]

I’ll be SURE to miss it.

Why? He's the President of the United States of America. If he doesn't have more important things to do, perhaps we don't need a president, any longer.

[MortMan]

He’s the Celebudent.

[autumnraine]

Are the news media so deluded that they think everyone is so Obama mania that they want him at a BASEBALL GAME?

A lot of people want to watch the game to FORGET about politics.

This does not make Obama ‘cool’, it makes Fox stupid.

[martinidon]

He needs to remind the masses the economy problems are Bush's fault and it will take years to recover. He will also apologize for all of Americas wrongs and then blame Cheney for the CIA cover up. Other than that he will be looking for some nice booty....

“President Obama, if your presidency was an at bat, what would the count be?”

Obama,”whatever it is, I inherited it”

As long as...uh...he doesn’t...uh....do the....uh...uh...play by ummm...play.

You know, if I were an Obama supporter I’d have to wonder when Obama would have time to run the country. Between Wednesday night parties, and trips to every place under the sun. Obama is clearly not governing. Perhaps that’s what his handlers want, but an Obama supporter with more than 2 brain cells, (a rarity), might be concerned at this point.
