Amazon 7 #26 April 4, 2006 QuoteIf you're looking up to Clinton as a President that "does honor to the office"...well, there's no way I can convince you otherwise. I never said that at all.. Of course he is an adulterer.. and God will judge him as such..... But starting wars.. out of arrogance and greed as you neo-cons seem to be ok with.. the death of THOUASANDS of innnocents.... is ok to you.. yeah.. nice set of priorities. How do you think YOU will be judged when the time comes for supporting that... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jail time for sure....Nice set of Priorities there How many people have died.... due to THIS administrations ARROGANCE and greed. I just wonder how GOD is going to view all of this. I just want a president I can look up to .. that does honor to the office.. not dishonor it with the crap this administration has pulled in the name of "patriotism"... that the world respects for his leadership and honor. Instead even more of the world hates us due to Arrogance and stupidity. You're so funny, dudette. You start a thread bitching about Bush's pitch at the ball game and then come up with this shit, go figure..... PS, how come you're back and PJ isn't?!?

sundevil777 93 #30 April 4, 2006 Kerry's eyes were closed! Bush also threw a first pitch at a world series game, can't remember if it was last year or earlier, and it was a perfect strike thrown all the way from the mound. The catcher didn't even have to move his glove. So, from what I've seen, the count is 1 ball, 1 strike.People are sick and tired of being told that ordinary and decent people are fed up in this country with being sick and tired. I’m certainly not, and I’m sick and tired of being told that I am Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Defend our bellies, and stop slitting other people's bellies because it makes us feel good. Killing thousands of people in a country that had nothing to do with 9/11 has nothing to do with self defense. >You know, seems like maybe it's just Americans in general that the Muslim >extremists hate, and not just "Americans under Bush's Presidency". What >do you think? They don't hate americans, or Bush supporters. They hate people who kill them, their families and friends. In that way they are just like you.

Muenkel 0 #32 April 4, 2006 Hey Rabid Post Whore, back to the first pitch. I've seen GWB throw out the first pitch quite a few times and each time they were strikes (not counting this one). Plus, he pitched them from the pitcher's mound. You can debate his policy, but I'm sure you can agree that he is athletic.

sundevil777 93 #36 April 4, 2006 I just saw today's pitch. It was a lob, certainly, but the way you make it sound, I would have thought it bounced to the catcher like one that Clinton did.

kallend 1,623 #37 April 4, 2006 I hear Margaret Thatcher was not a very good shot putter, nor Reagan very good at luge. And as for Lincoln's ability at ski jumping, well, forget it!

How could anyone have voted for these losers? I think the fact that Bush was so involved with baseball does make a difference, and I thought he did well. Can you imagine the public relations benefit if he could actually take a few pitches during batting practice and do well at that! It would be much more effective than holding/kissing babies.People are sick and tired of being told that ordinary and decent people are fed up in this country with being sick and tired.

masterrig 1 #39 April 4, 2006 I think, the best pitch thrown by a 'celeb' on opening day, was Tom Selleck! I don't think Bush did all that bad. The catcher was able to catch the ball. Well, he did have to get out of his crouch and really reach for it. Chuck Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rehmwa 2 #41 April 4, 2006 QuoteQuoteI hear Margaret Thatcher was not a very good shot putter you heard wrong OK, can we get back to MLB reading our minds from overhead satellites? Sure, political bashing of Bush and Clinton is fun, but it's really old news. But Lincoln ski jumping and Thatcher shot putting is at least a sport (or hobby if you will). If Bush was throwing strikes, and now he's throwing balls, then the right thing to do is see if his pitch tightens up a bit in the next few throws. Which will be about 3 more years at one pitch a year. Else the manager gets a call and then he get's benched for the rest of the game. THAT"S IT! I'm not voting for him in the next pres election. Maybe even if his pitch does get back on track. ...

Questioning the moderators' actions excessively? I had thought it was PAs, not "a PA" but an ongoing habit of them that had to be addressed or else the mods would have looked like they were playing favorites if they banned PJ (correctly too) but not you....... In any case, bad throw, presidents shouldn't play baseball. Baseball is a silly game anyway. There's a reason beer sales are so high at ball games. ...

Didn't you know? - American military people are trained with conditioned response to "feel good" when belly slitting. If they feel bad during simulated belly slitting training, they get an electric shock. If they appear to feel good during the training, pellets of food falls through a tube to them (usually fake crabmeat sticks with a medium hot cocktail sauce for dipping). Soldiers are more like conditioned killer lab rats instead of 'real' humans. C'mon - everybody's doing it. Slit a belly, get a snack. ...
