I just read this at cnn.com and I couldn't stop laughing. Of all the things to get pissed off about, they're upset about this...
(CNN) – The Republican National Committee took aim at Barack Obama Wednesday over the Illinois senator's half-hour ad buy that will delay the start of a World Series game by 18 minutes.
So... not only is Barack Obama palling around with terrorists, defrauding the election and turning America into a communist dictatorship, he is DELAYING A SPORTS GAME!
Just think, 18 minutes is almost three times the number of minutes Bush sat in the classroom on 9/11. That means this is THREE TIMES THE TERRORISM.
Don't take my word for it, though-
"It’s unfortunate that the World Series’ first pitch is being delayed for Obama’s political pitch," RNC spokesman Alex Conant said. "Not only is Obama putting politics before principle, he’s putting it before our national pastime."
Why do you hate America, Barack Obama? What's next, delaying apple pie? DELAYING THE FLAG?!
But, I hear you say, wait a minute here, Arken, isn't the World Series airing on Fox?
Right you are. Turns out-
Major League Baseball has agreed to a request from Fox to delay the start time of Game 6 of the World Series (if a Game 6 is necessary) so the network can air the 30-minute Obama spot, a Fox spokesman confirms to CNN. The Illinois senator has also bought similar time on CBS and NBC, set to begin at 8 p.m.
Yes, folks, that's right. It wasn't even MLB that wanted the delay. It was Fox themselves... and how could the RNC be against the fair and balanced network? Maybe... maybe Fox is putting politics before our national pastime too! We know they're putting money before politics so they can get viewers that might otherwise be watching a political address.
So, in summation- Fox asked MLB to delay the game by 20 minutes because they know Barack will be speaking on other channels at that time. Because of that, Barack Obama is anti-American.
It's so hard to be a Republican these days...
