I think President Obama is like Roger Clemens.
Roger Clemens put on a Yankee uniform for a while but he was never a "True Yankee."
He doesn't believe in what the Yankees stand for. Dignity. Class. Integrity. Style with substance. Doing what you have to do to win but without cheating. Being a professional in every sense of the word.
You know what Derek Jeter does every day he is on the field.
Roger Clemens is a liar. He is a cheat. He would do anything to win but was really more concerned with his own statistics than the team. He has an ego bigger than the stadium he plays in. He does not play well with others. He will turn on you in an instance and throw you under the bus like he did the guys who supplied him steroids. He is arrogant. Self-righteous. Pompous.
Roger Clemens will never be a "True Yankee."
It is a terrible thing to have Roger Clemens as your President.

He wasn't much of a Red Sox either.
He's one of the really few players who are hated in Boston. I'm kinda perversely glad he repeated his performance in New York, because it proves we weren't the jerks.
He was.
And still is. I hope he does a little time in Club Fed as a capstone to his wonderful career.
I would accept this analogy if Obama won almost as many games as Walter Johnson.
More like Jim Bouton; "Dreams of Ball Four." But one good year and beating Koufax in a World Series game does not an FDR make.
sorry, almost beating Koufax... dropped that word.
Does this mean that Alex Rodriguez faces a stretch in the pen at the end of his career? Cashman ain't looking like such a genius now, is he? Rodriquez till he's 42. He'll be lucky to be more than a DH at 37. Final home run tally? 650, tops. Pettite breaking down. Jeter's worst season ever. Genius, sheer genius to rely on the over 35 set.
A Rod was fine until the league started testing for 'roids. He's just another juiced up purple lipstick wearing shirtless park tanner, in other words, a true Y*nkee.
