Scarborough Thinks Obama Bowls Like A Little Girl

While conceding that Obama was a good athlete, MSNBC's Joe Scarborough had some less-than-laudatory comments about the Illinois Senator's bowling skills.

Watch Joe discuss what Obama and his 4-year old daughter have in common:

Now that Tucker is gone, Scarborough must be the resident idiot on MSNBC. He plays the part well and only needs one of those funny hats with all the points on it.

Bowling is the only game you can play without folding in the middle. Hence it is so attractive to the beer-gut enabled athlete.

I think Obama's ears make him look like Symba from The Lion King.

And I think your name makes you sound like a submersible vehicle. So?

Joe Scarborough - Ann Coulter just called and said that given time you might just be butch enough to play with the real men.

Scarborough is something else. Did anyone else notice that Mika kept him from talking to the weather woman this morning. He tried for small talk with her and Mika cut him off twice. He has a tendency to sexually harass women, maybe Mika was told to keep him from harassing the women.

I think Mika was a little jealous.

I'm a BO supporter(fwiw) and think he needs to roughen up around the edges a bit. Regarding the bowling, maybe he can turn it to his advantage and make fun of himself in the coming days. But yeah, he could stand a little more denim and a little less kashmir.

if "Reagan democrats" pick their presidential candidates based on their bowling skills and scores as scarborough seems to believe, then this country is going STRAIGHT down the tubes...

i would hope that people are a bit more intelligent and sophisticated than that. scarborough obviously is not.

i hope feminists are up in arms about this sexist remark as well

This is another reason I am an Obama supporter: I once bowled a 17.

I never saw my date again.

If he/she went out with you for your bowling skills, then you're better off without her/him anyway.

I don't know, what else does he have a problem with, getting down the aisle? You want someone hittin' the gutter all day, or do you wanna strike?

Joe has a bit of a John Wayne accent, and everybody knows how gay that is. Is Joe gay? Why won't he come out? Why didn't Wayne come out when it was obvious to anyone how gay he was? I mean, how long will these closeted gay guys strut their macho in order to hide what is so obvious?

Hey...lay off John Wayne! :)

Everyone but you knows that John Wayne was gay.

I'm always wondering when the macho Brian Kilmeade is going to come out. He is the most vain guy on television. Every time he looks at the camera with that s**t eating grin, I have to change channels.

Joe's a moron on this. The idea is not to show that you're an expert bowler but to go out, give it a try, meet people, have a few laughs.

The put downs by Joe and the rest of the MSM just show their arrogance and snobish attitudes.

You Obama supporters really can't stand it when someone makes fun of your guy, can you? Did you watch him bowl? It was funny-he was awful. This stuff is all fair game when you are running for president.

I think i would be worried about it more- if Joe Scarboro wasn't such a right wing tool.

Thank you Vern, for yet another, drive by blog. You can be seated once again in your rocker and have Martha put that blanky on you. Be careful not leave your mouth open when you snore.

So when is Joe going one on one with Obama in a basketball game? We'll see who looks like a little girl then.

His praise of Hillary on Monday morning sounded more like a fiance than a newsreporter. It was pathetic almost to the point of sickening, calling her "my gal." What the hell is up with this guy anyway? Then he said, he was for Obama. Now he is for Hillary. Doesn't the general public with half a brain deserve more than this garbage?

Ditto!!! I woke up to Uptight Joe Monday morning ... and my first thought was "Did I accidentally turn the channel to Fox?" He's such a republican and clearly wants Hillary Huckabee to get the Dem nod.
Too bad, though, it's not gonna' happen!
