President Barack Obama's decision to play ball with some little leaguers en route to a fundraiser snarled rush-hour traffic in Washington, D.C., on Monday evening.

What does Obama care about regular people? He isn’t up for re-election { Unless he knows something we don’t). He can do and will do anything he darns wells feels like because there isn’t anyone with the balls to stand up to him and his c**k biting minions.
We are doomed as a country because the masses elected this turd.

Why didn’t he stop at the inner city little league? He went to the white league. Maybe the SS would not approve of an impromptu stop in those parts of DC.

The last time a politician (supposedly) caused a traffic jam it resulted in endless coverage and accusations by the MSM.

Should we expect the same now?
