Did anyone see the vid where His Holiness, in Tucson for the "tragic shooting" memorial service, takes time out to GO BOWLING???
I mean, seriously. WTF??!?!?!?
Every time the man should do something one way, he does it exactly the opposite. I never in my life heard of a president, in a place for a memorial service, takes time out to recreate.
The measure of the man has been taken, and he's a VERY "little man."

And this is the person who represents our country to the world. He has no class.

Just when I thought he was behaving well. His speech was good and he didn't try to politicize the tragedy but going bowling is tacky. #6 Yesterday, 09:51 PM

My buddy (whose word I trust) said it was from TODAY. I didn't see it, but was so offended that I had to post it. If ANYONE has seen the vid, and if it IS NOT FROM TODAY, I will immediately remove this thread.

what people say in Arizona is not getting out to the rest of the citizens in other States. Seems to me, the media is picking and loosing alot of information.

Well, if anyone can debunk this, please do. As much as I hate His Holiness, I will not leave something up that is patently untrue.

The only bowling video I can find is from 2008. There is nothing from today, even on the nuttier sites.

Did it show him getting a strike and falling to the floor?

You'll have to watch it yourself. Maybe your friend can send you the link?

I think he saw it on TV this evening, and not on the web.

He probably could not get a tee time in such short notice.

But you will leave up something that you have no idea is true or has any basis in fact whatsoever?
From the pool reports, after AF1 was wheels down in AZ he went to the hospital, then to the memorial, and was wheels up for Andrews AFB at 22:04 EST.
In situations like this perhaps the burden of proof should be on the poster, it's not sporting for one to do a drive-by on someone, as disliked as he is here, and expect others to prove it wrong.

I saw this on the the news Wed. night, did not know if it was a clip from the past. Why would they show a clip of him bowling in the past when talking about the AZ incident and his trip there. I don't know.
I can't find where he went bowling in AZ. Sounds like someone pulled some old footage and used it as video fill-in. Poor choice? Sure.
Meanwhile, for all his posturing about how he'll yank the thread if it's not true, he's sure not in a hurry to verify & yank. His sole purpose, imo, was to incite rage...and he was very successful on that point.
Much as I despise the big O and his policies, this was an unfair, unverified charge strictly for sensationalism.
