Captain Bullcrap Steps On Himself
You didn’t have to be a genius to predict this wasn’t going to work out well for our president, Captain Bullcrap.
The hallmark of his presidency has been trying to portray an obvious wimp and sissy as an tough leader. To do that we have to over look his Mom jeans and girlie baseball throw and focus on how tough it is for the Leader of the Free World to interject himself into a minor league call of whether to kill a few Somali pirates and to order the killing of Osama bin Laden… at least when he had run out of other options. In fact, the url www.gutsycall.comtakes you to the Obama campaign donation page.
When the Obama was on the telephone with Turkish prime minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan, Obama though it was a good idea to not only be holding a baseball bat but to have a photograph of that event released. Message: I’m tough.
It didn’t go unnoticed in Turkey.
The picture, which was interpreted as vaguely menacing by some critics, caused a stir in Turkey.
‘The photo reveals from whom our Prime Minister receives orders to rule the country,’ Metin Lutfi Baydar, a lawmaker with Turkey’s main opposition party the Republican People’s Party (CHP), said in a statement.CHP vice president Umut Oran asked through parliament if Erdogan had seen the picture and if he would take action against ‘an implicit insult to Turkey and its citizens.’
For better or worse, Turkey is a key ally in the region. Without Turkey’s cooperation it is difficult to see how we manage the war Obama is trying desperately to lose in Iraq, the war Obama is pretending he wants with Iran, or the festering goat rope in Syria. In fact, it is hard to see any scenario in which humiliating the Turkish Prime Minister is useful.

Tough is not what I would characterize someone that takes his cues from Valerie Jarret…

Pic of the Preezy with a bat doesn’t conjure Teddy Roosevelt.
Instead it reminds Americans with whom Barry spends his Friday nights.

We’ve seen his sissy throw; I want to see his sissy swing.

More like Private Bullcrap. The only thing he’s captain of is the sinking ship of of his administration and presidency. We all know what he can do with that bat.

Looks like he’s trying to jerk-off the bat.

I heard he gets booed at sporting events, so I am guessing that is his presidential office dildo.

Is that a photograph of the World Trade Center collapsing hanging on the wall behind his head?

Is that an SEIU bat?
Or Moose’s “Stress releiver”?

I think Obama likes to think of himself as Capone, as portrayed by Robert DeNiro in the Untouchables.

In the scene about team work on the baseball team. Showing some of those Chicago values Rahm Emanuel says Chic-fil-a fails to share.

Not to be confused with a “gaffe,” which would be stating that culture matters.

He even holds the bat like a wussy.
What a moron. He doesn’t have a clue. Too bad it’s not a cluebat!

someone needs to Photoshop that bat into something more interesting…

@Zilla FTW. “Cluebat”…perfect.
The contrived “optics” of this are so lame.
They might as well have used a badminton racquet or one of those sticks with a ribbon on it like they use in women’s rhythmic gymnastics.
Or maybe a woman’s handbag. LOL!

Don’t make him show you he knows how to use it. Remember the umbrella?

I hope he swings a bat better than he throws out a first pitch. If not, it would just be downright embarrassing to watch. What a pathetic little man he is.

Can you imagine working for these kooks?
Their idea of solutions is media props, and to think the libs can’t figure out why these idiots have no solutions for the economy other then props and tv attack ads.
its like everything is a highschool play or skit where the students think they are smarter then the teacher.

He’d be more truthful if he had a putter in his hand. A baseball bat????? Faker.

Yet another gaffe from the ignorant Gaffemeister (57 states/speak Austrian/Polish death camps/breathalyzer for asthma tx). In truth, he doesn’t know one end of the bat from the other.

That’s about the most pathetic posed photo from a president I’ve seen.

I’m thinking more like a “caption this” for the pic
and Obama saying
“yeah hey Reggie its me, sitting here holding a big ole woodey and thought maybe we could have phone sex while I stick this thing up my ass”.
A white house photographer walks in, Barack says, “caption this as me talking tough to those haters the turk….now leave me alone and don’t interupt me for about an hour”, tell security not to come in if I I’m screaming because I’ll be stretching out”.
“Now where we Reggie”!

Actually a golf swing is basically the same mechanics as a baseball bat swing.
…and we all know he swings like a girly-man in golf.
Caption this: “Gee I miss Reggie”.
