He’s probably the most ‘athletic’ president we’ve had in a while (and one of the youngest If i bothered to research these things?), lots of stories about the basketball games he ran during the campaign – i wonder if there’s a court in the white house now

I will say this about the MLB All-Star game, despite the constant substitutions, it most resembles a real game more than any other sport. The players can actually try to play the game.

Baseball also has the least amount of physical contact as well – as far as i’m concerned the primary goal of any mid season exhibition is to avoid injuries.

ur obviously don't follow politics
but anyway fox news is the only non liberal news station out there (& don’t worry republicans make fun of it too) & i don’t watch it. I form my opinions off of facts, policies, politicians histories, and political views, not what cnn/cbs/liberal media tells me too
i don’t want to get in a political arguement b/c it’s not the place, Bush had about the same ratings his first year, then look what happened. & FYI the huge debt obama & congress could & if they keep going much further, will fuck over Dems. for a long time. I have nothing against obama as a person, I disagree with his “borderline”, happy jackass, socialism views and his economic policies. his economic advisor is the one who put fannie may in the ground, now he’s doing it to the US

wtf about fox news
you still have yet to say anything but comparing me to fox news, i’m sorry i couldn’t find the poll, but i don’t watch fox except for “24” & “The Simpsons”, I form my opinions on how I feel the government should act based on the current situations & i agree with obama on some things, but he’s doing one of three economic policies, & I believe he should of picked a different one, the healthcare plan needs to be revisited, & the stimulus is not working, he needs to follow the paper trail & make sure a lot of it is being used right, there have been a lot of people misusing the money that was granted to them. But you might not know anything about these topics b/c all you can say is. “fox news told you to say that”. I like Obama as a person, I just don’t agree with how he goes about doing things. If you want to go s his d, go for it, but like you said 57% of the country approves his actions so far. That leaves 11% that are questioning & 32% disagreeing with them.

I know kids who exercise their right to not stand up & say the pledge of allegence. Yeah I think it’s wrong, but it’s America & we have freedom & can voice our opinions, if you want to you can go worship Obama somewhere else, you didn’t hear anyone saying nething when Bush was booed. People cheered when the guy threw a shoe at him. Get over it Obama’s way overhyped
