Earlier in the week, members of the U.S. women's national expressed their desire to have President Obama attend their World Cup final against Japan. But since he has the small matter of the country's budget crisis to solve, he couldn't make it over to Germany for the game and sent Jill Biden and Chelsea Clinton instead.
On matchday, Obama tweeted an apology and well wishes to the team, then gave Abby Wambach's brand new Twitter account a shoutout, along with a quote from the U.S. striker. Though it would have been nice to have the President at their match live and in person, having him quote their leader isn't half bad.

Gosh, Obama’a older daughter has much more poise and manners than Mrs. O. Just look at the First Lady.
“Score a goal...be a leader”
What? lol....
A "small thing" like the country's budget crises has never stopped him from doing whatever he wished before. I would say the excuse is bogus.
“But since he has the small matter of the country’s budget crisis to solve...”
Yeah, it kind of snuck up on all the arrogant bastards in the WH...and Senate...and House...I hope they all go to hell for all of this game playing they’re doing with my Country.
It’s because of him that we lost.
No wonder they lost.
Sad—he had to give the US women’s soccer team the kiss of Obama.
Good golly, everything Obama touches turns to dust!
Looks like the knuckle dragger is siting on a chemical camp toilet.
If you have a sec..do a search of Iowahawk’s old columns..the one he wrote about Bill Clinton attending the WWC in 1999 in California is one of the funniest things I’ve ever read..
My thoughts exactly. What would Obama know about being a leader?
Do we really have to see them bare footing in the White House?
If they think it is OK to do it fine, just don’t publish pictures of it.
It kind of “stinks” of the lack of respect held by them for the office.

Oh well...we'll always have the Olympics.
...oh, wait, never mind.
I knew when Obama and Hillary were watching the game, that Japan would win. They’re both hexes.
I think they photoshop Obama into the picture. It’s the same look at pose he had when they were watching the Osama raid. Just with a jacket.
I think he would look good in that pose in front of a bulldozer with a pancake on his head.
soccer or golf on a glorified pasture???
Michelle’s looks pissed about the veggie spread on the table. Bring on the shortribs and chocolate shakes!
Obamas Kiss of Death Strikes again..
