The baseball game

Obama pitches the ball to us. He has told us to hold him accountable and, by implication, to hit a home run when he pitches the ball to us. Time after time one of us from his well wishing constituency have battered up at the plate only to find the President does not know how to pitch. Plain and simple. The ball our President pitches to us always has funny things happening to it once it leaves his hand. There have been good left-handed pitchers in the past but really…..

Our Team
1st base - Nancy Pelosi
2nd - Harry Reid
3rd - Rahm Emanuel
Catcher - David Axelrod
Empire - Charlie Gibbs
Pitcher - Pres. Obama
Out field - Whomever cabinet member feels like wondering onto the field on a given day.
Batter line up - The one, the only, the infamous (drum roll) Professional Lefts.

Ah, were I a baseball fan….. (Sigh)

As always,
