The most viewed story on the Chicago Tribune website as of this writing is a column asking if President Obama wore Mom Jeans to the mound when he threw out the ceremonial first pitch at Tuesday night's All-Star Game.
So much for the president being the coolest guy on Earth.
"Its been a tough week for President Obama's cool factor," Politico reports.
Even the foreign press picked up on the meme.
"When The Coolest US Prez Had A Flurry Of Flusters," IndianExpress.com writes.
Pundits mostly pile on Obama for a series of gaffes at the All-Star Game, but date the shaky week to the crashing of a teleprompter on Monday that left Obama "in absolute discomfort."
But Obama's series of goofs began long before this week. In March, for example, another teleprompter meltdown led to the Irish prime minister repeating Obama's statement word-for-word - while Obama thanked himself for being there.
[Snip]
And then came the All-Star game, where he called the place where his beloved White Sox play "Cominskey Field" and threw a first pitch lollipop that would have bounced in front of the plate had Albert Pujols not stepped up with his glove and saved him the ignominy.
And - no gender bias meant but - he threw like a girl.

Obozo is losing it when even NBC starts to notice his stupidity.
Incidentally: There is great photo of the buffoon's girly throw in article. It is owned by Getty Images which we can't post due to copyright restrictions. However, you can see it by clicking HERE.
In this type of society where what constitutes “hip” lasts about three months, this guy is bound to be the butt of jokes in about a year. When you play the “cool” game, you dont win.
Obama - throws like a girl and dresses like a mom.
I betcha Obama likes Eric Clapner too!
I wonder of girl wonder also likes watching football at Lambert field.
Obama - newest hero to the women. He’s Wonder Mom in Chief!
Remember the incident overseas when they host country's security detail tried to stop his secret service men from entering a banquet hall with him? That was cool. He just stepped in there and made it perfectly clear who was in charge!
They dont play baseball in Indonesia or Kenya?
I really cant understand what he is doing...it seems it is the first time he has thrown a baseball..
The pitch did bounce, the center field shot they had on MLB. com, the link was posted here Wednesday, clearly showed that.
Socialism, massive debt and unemployment is freakin’ COOL!!
It really really surprises me that NBC would run this story being so critical of their God, Chairman Zero.
Throwing spitballs at the Pres while the real issues are ignored.
The loss of millions of jobs since the stimulus was signed.
The attempt to take over our health care system.
Nationalizing banks, GM, Chrysler, etc.
And they blather on about mom jeans.
Cute!
Yes but he knows how to speak Austrian.
“Chairman Zero”
I like that! It fits Obummer like a glove! May I borrow that from time to time?
WTF are Mom jeans? Zipper on the side?
Yes but he knows how to speak Austrian.
The most pitiful part of the whole All Star pitch was the fist pump that our arrogant TOTUS gave himself after the sissy, dirtball pitch. Maybe he was just impressed that he got the ball as far as he did.
That’s our TOTUS, always impressed with himself. I don’t see how anyone can stand that guy.
Btw, Juan Williams said he liked Barry’s jeans and that he wears jeans just like that.
