Obama Attends Non-Existent Soccer Game?
american thinker ^ | 4/13/10

Posted on 04/12/2010 10:17:34 PM PDT by Nachum

Reading the story about President Obama breaking tradition and ditching the presidential press pool over the weekend to watch one of his daughter's soccer games, it appears harmless, right? Not so. It is rather disturbing when you dissect it. So let's do just that. According to the Chicago Sun Times, the press pool was to assemble at 11:30AM.

However, Time reported:

The president left the White House at approximately 9:20 to attend one of his daughter's soccer games at 40th and Chesapeake NW. A pool was hastily called at around 9:35 and drove north at 9:43 to catch the president before the game ended. We didn't make it. The President returned to the White House at 10:17. The pool returned at 10:30. We now return you to your regularly scheduled pool call time.

Seems simple enough. But the story has several problems. The first one is a biggie in that there were no scheduled soccer games for Sidwell Friends April 10, as evidenced here. The second is that the area reported that the game was played at appears to be one of high crime, as documented here and here. Additionally, this is a picture of the field via Google Maps, where Obama went to watch the game.

Nothing he does is good for America. What an evil, vile creature. He’s a puke of the first order. I equate him with Stalin. He hasn’t killed millions yet, but his his mindset is the same as Stalin.

He didn’t need to take such high risk venture to talk to him.

Depends on what obama had to say (offer). The White House is full of 'eyes' and 'ears'.

An apt comparison. More than anyone else, he reminds me of Mussolini, right down to that upturned jaw and downturned mouth.

If he had been at a soccer game there would be iphone photographs or videos.

He went to meet someone whose name, he believed, shouldn’t show up on the White House visitor log.

I agree with you. Maybe he’ll end up the same.

no one can confirm if the Secret Service even accompanied Obama

Without the Secret Service present to protect him, and in order to avoid possible confrontations with taxpayers, Obama surely adopted his customary disguise as a long-legged mack daddy:

He went to 2249 R. Street, NW, Washington, DC. Something about a birth certificate.

That area of DC is not a high crime area. . .its Wisconsin Ave-Tenley Circle-American University area. Perhaps the game was on the Woodrow Wilson HS football field rather than Ft. Reno Park. . .the google pix is of Ft. Reno park. . .they play soccer on the WWHS football field also. Maybe Obama just sat in the car and watched low key for twenty minutes on Nebraska av. . he could see the game from there. . .it is weird. .but this article is jumping to a bunch of conclusions that are also not accurate.

With all of the technology that people have -- iPhones, Blackberries -- not one person took a photo of Obama? And the press didn't get a shot of him getting into his vehicle? Obama loves the cameras, and this is what he looks like at his daughter's soccer game.

Even three days later, there are still no pictures of the president from Saturday's game. The USA just disarmed to Russia, Poland's president and 95 others were killed hours before, and there were many international leaders in Washington, D.C. for the nuclear summit set to begin on Monday, April 12.

And we shouldn't raise even more questions on his whereabouts? According to the MSM, the answer is yes.

Hmmmm, starting to look like a Clinton-esque mystery. What is this guy up to??
