For anyone else (if that's possible), who was unfamiliar with the term...

Urban Dictionary on "mom jeans"

[McGruff]

No wonder you throw like a girlie mahn with those skinny little ahms.

[cricket]

He throws like a little girl.

Perhaps in his heart. . .

Rush offered yesterday that no MAN, hold the ball with three fingers; ignoring the seams as well; and gives a styled pitch such as Obama's.

Too bad, for Obama that TOTUS does not have arms. . .

The handshake thing was debunked. He was introducing staff to the Russian prez.

That said, ‘o’ throws like a wussie-girl.

[Vor Lady]

I hadn’t heard ‘mom jeans’ until today either.

From your link

"I got a hard time from all sorts of blogs who said I looked like Urkel," Barack said at fund-raiser in Chicago in June. Awww, he's self-conscious. Just like us! But we confess we found his mom jeans kind of endearing, because they're just the kind of thing normal nerdy dads would wear totally oblivious to the fact that they're anything but fashionable. But more important: Barack reads blogs about clothes? What if he's reading this right now?! Keep the sneaks, Barack! A spot of nerdy dadness looks good on you. Besides, it makes you relatable.

Something tells me that for most people it wouldn't matter what he wore.

Mom jeans=like one of us

non Mom jeans="cool"

:D

Whoa, you are prescient!

How did you perceive that I hadn't heard of mom jeans from my post #220? I did comment down thread to DolliCali that I didn't know what they were.

You can say it was “debunked” all you want. I saw a different video the first time but didn’t download it. I downloaded the later one, slowed the video down and I could still see there were obviously snubs and I saw with my own eyes the look on his face when he was rejected (3 times).

They (whoever “they” are) tried to “debunk” it by speeding up the film and selective chopping.

That said, the worse thing about him is not throwing like a girl.

[MeekOneGOP]

BWAHAHAHAHAHAAAAA!

[usaproud]

I always thought he was gay. Now I’m sure of it.

Jean with pockets like that make the ARS look big! Those mom jeans are gross!

Stretch pants are for 100lb girls. Michelle is a slob anyway.

[CitizenM]

All I can say is that Obama looks better in his Mom Jeans than Michelle does in hers. I heard he likes to try on Michelle’s clothes, but he must swim in them. Or maybe that is why Michelle has so many sweaters and clothes that are too small. She actually buys sizes to fit Obama and his fantasy dress-ups.

I just saw a picture of Osama getting off the plane with Willie Mays for the all-star game. You have to see what a slob he is while Willie is all dressed up in a suite. The President of US is a slob.

[TXBlair]

What is he pulling, his purse?

LOL!

[TXBlair]

I think the little one, Sasha, is a cutie. She always looks so apprehensive and suspicious of people. And who could blame her?! This is a great picture you posted of her in that it "says it all." She must be thinking, "Who are all these people? I want my old life back!" Poor little girl. I feel sorry for her. She never looks happy since her dad was elected. (That makes two of us, Sasha.)

Thanks for posting the picture. Very poignant.
