Real Men Don’t Base Their Votes on Who Has the Best Throwing Arm
Apparently Bush is the better choice because Kerry bounced a pitch (like Bush the Elder and Reagan had before him).
But that’s not all. Check this out (from the link above):
“with all the hoople around Kerry’s snowboarding, skeet shooting, wind surfing, bike riding, etc. it seems as if all the “sports” this man does are sports that don’t really involve the concept of “team.” Give him a moment in a real team sport, he fluffs it. Now, I might have missed something in Politics 101, but it seems to me that the ones who are successful are those that know about playing on a team.”
Now, setting aside the erroneous conclusion that a man’s political talents are derived from his choice of sport, that statement is just plain factually incorrect.
No team sports, eh?
Um…what about hockey? Kerry played varsity in high school, and also at Yale.
Um…what about soccer? Kerry played at Yale.
Um…what about lacrosse? Kerry played at Yale.
Last I checked, hockey, soccer, and lacrosse were all team sports.
