Bowl, Barack, Bowl

| | Comments (1) |

For crying out loud, whose idea was it for Barack to bowl? After Dukakis in the tank and Kerry in weird outfits or windsurfing, haven't candidates learned to avoid ridiculous photo-ops that backfire so easily? Barack looks silly, and he bowled a 37 to boot -- I've seen raccoons have greater success in an alley.

Time was when JFK refused to be seen eating, sensitive as he was to how dumb you can look while being photographed chewing. bowling obama.jpg

Simple tip: Don't try to look like the common man. Try to look like someone the common would be proud to have as his leader.

Hey, he was just trying to do what "typical white people" do. I wonder if we zoomed on that photo if we could see his over-sized Slurpee and pork rinds?
