Obama Chases Cameras For Final Four Championship Halftime Show
Breitbart ^ | 4/3/12 | Ben Shapiro

Posted on 04/03/2012 9:44:23 PM PDT by Nachum

Continuing his pattern of appearing on every television show – and particularly, every major sporting event – that will have him, President Obama joined the halftime show of the championship game of the Final Four last night. There he was given a four-minute infomercial about what a great guy he was, in the guise of an interview with CBS’ Clark “Special K” Kellogg. If this wasn’t an in-kind contribution, nothing is.

Did Obama talk about the game? Not really. Instead, he continued his obvious campaign to reach out to female voters with gems like this:

"A couple of things. Number one, how pleased I am to see women's and girl's sports develop since you and I were kids …”

"Number two is I bleed when those girls play. I know you must have felt the same way when they were playing. And I know your daughter plays volleyball. But watching them play, I just want them to do so well, you know, and when something goes right, it is more joy than I ever got playing myself.”

Got it, ladies? The man’s got daughters, and he likes women’s sports! (Just don’t ask him to name his favorite WNBA player. He might tell you he likes them all.) Obama, not coincidentally, has spent the last month talking about the glories of Title IX, the law that requires that schools provide equal sports opportunities for women – and that has forced various men’s sports programs out of business to comply.

We also got a glimpse into the Ward Cleaver childhood Obama provides for his daughter Sasha, who gets to have dad coach:

"They have a wonderful woman who was coaching, but she occasionally needs a little help so I'd come in and we do some clinics and teach them the basics and run some plays. I ended up being so attached to these girls. They had an end of the season tournament that they won. I can’t take too much credit for it. I really can’t.”

Just nauseating. "Bar(f)ack" Obama.

“I ended up being so attached to these girls.”

(But, in reality, I prefer the boys. I MISS you, Reggie!!!!)

God save us from the female vote.

But watching them play, I just want them to do so well, you know, and when something goes right, it is more joy than I ever got playing with myself.”

Fixed it.

I got up as soon as the first half was over to check out the latest on FR. And then I went back just after the second half began. No Obozo for me.

I was kinda thinking...well, Jordon has the Charlotte Bobcats and it looks like Jordon is ready to unload the team, right...

Being a loving, caring and thoughtful citizen, I was thinking that perhaps Dearleader would much prefer to own and run a basketball team than to be POTUS.

Isn’t that a lovely thought, heck I bet many of us would be willing to chip in and buy the team for Dear leader, if he promised to leave office now or at least after his first term is up. We don’t want him over working himself.

I can’t take too much credit for it. I really can’t.

Did he really mean that, or did the most intelligent president ever mangle his syntax....again?

When a mincing fop tells you he has the women’s vote wrapped up, you can bet the fop has flopped. He’s trying waaay too hard .... if he were confident of their vote, he’d move on (no pun intended). Van Jones said if the fop came out as gay, it wouldn’t hurt him with the black vote - now THAT I believe.

He’s just SO clever, isn’t he? He can’t take ‘too much’ credit, but all the credit will be just fine.

Overall, the best looking women athletes are volleyball players.

I got up as soon as the first half was over to ...


Did they pre-announce his arrival or did he just show up?

I would like to think that if they said he was coming on that more people would have followed you to anywhere....

Reminds me of the answer one wag gave when he ‘stopped’ in the booth and the announcer, feigning surprise “Look who just stopped by...etc...” and the Player said “Hell, you all asked me to be here”......

“Hate it” when the truth prevails....
