Is It Fair To Say President Obama Throws Like A Girl?

We found this video comparing President Obama pitching a baseball, to President Bush II doing the same.

This is a humorous exercise, but it is not terribly fair. President Bush owned a baseball team, so he had better know how to throw a pitch.

President Obama does get the ball to the plate. It’s not the best pitch, but good luck to anyone throwing a pitch while wearing a flak jacket.

The low bar for worst first pitch in a ball game still belongs to Gary Dell Abate aka Baba Booey of the Howard Stern Show, the best radio show on earth (tied with Rush Limbaugh).

The real comparison to be made is the difference between how baseball crowds received President Obama vs. President Bush:

Here is Bush greeted with loud cheers:

Here is Obama being greeted with pronounced Boos:

Ouch!
