Obama Pastor Rips Yankees

Saw this yesterday morning but wanted to give Citi Field some space.

From the White House press pool…these are the comments of Obama’s pastor.   This is a non-story but fun headline!

“Not only that, baseball season has started,” Leon said , adding the church drummer is a big New York Yankees fan.

Leon said he wanted to remind everybody that the Orioles have beaten the Yankees twice so far, and therefore, “The world lives in hope”

“I’m a fairly charitable person, but I have to tell you – I hate the Yankees,” he said, and laughter erupted from the pews.

And the News adds:

White House spokesman Bill Burton did not respond last night to the Daily News’ urgent inquiry into this matter.

Hey at least Mr. Obama doesn’t pretend to be some big-time Yankees fan like certain former senators from Arkan…I mean New York.  (Too political?)
