President Obama is getting the wrath of fashionistas across the country for wearing his mom jeans to throw the first pitch at the All-Star Game this week. Read more and see the photo and video of Obama’s mom jeans here.
Obama Mom Jeans
President Obama has upset many by wearing mom jeans to throw the first pitch at the All-Star Game earlier this week. Not sure exactly what people expected him to wear, they really aren’t that bad. Check out a video below.
The All-Star pants looked similar to the jeans he was teased for wearing last summer at the lakefront bike ride.
“I got a hard time from all sorts of blogs who said I looked like Urkel,” Obama Said.
Other people have made light of the silly situation, saying it is a good sign that President Obama isn’t obsessed with making a fashion statement.
Besides, at least his pitch made it to the catcher while the catcher was still crouching. It almost hit the ground first but he scooped it up right on top of home plate. Not bad for the President. Baseball is America’s favorite pastime after all.
Skip the fashion statement and be thankful his pitch didn’t suck.
Check out President Obama and his so called mom jeans in the video below.

My 28 year old well educated ,professional son wears jeans like that to show that he is not influenced by the SAGGing show your underwear syle of 16 years ago. Yes jeans are supposed to have a waist and we don’t want to see your crack.

come on, the pitch did suck…he threw like a girl. — Honestly,
You better think twice before saying he threw like a girl…b ecause he threw like a wimp. I’m a girl, and I can guarantee, I could strike you out with 4 pitches… guaranteed.

How many of you can throw like a pro?
Give the guy a break. We didn’t elect his arm.
I proudly wear “Mom” jeans too.

I can’t believe how empty someone’s head must be to spend time worrying about the president’s jeans. I’m just upset with myself that I wasted two minutes of my life on this topic. His jeans looked fine! If he wore something else, he would have just been criticized for it.

The man looks good in whatever he wears. He’s long, lanky and very comfortable in his skin. Who the hell cares how he throws a baseball?
