WASHINGTON – The White House says President Barack Obama has received 12 stitches in his lip after being hit during a pick up basketball game.
White House press secretary Robert Gibbs says the president was inadvertently struck by someone's elbow Friday.
The president received the stitches in the doctor's office on the ground floor of the White House.
I wonder what will happen to the terrorist who tried to kill the President. :mrgreen:

I bet the Commander in Weak cried like a little baby worried a fat lip would make him slur his words while using his trusty teleprompter.

Hey, be nice, that could be construed as racial.

Well he is the first President to use one on a beach, in front of every crowd he speaks to and has ordered a headset with screens on both sides.

Funny that you libs had no problems talking about Bush and the way he spoke, yet get you guys panties in a wad when the same thing is done to Obamay. But I realize being a liberal you must take a hypocrisy test and pass it with lying colors.
 
If I can, at the "risk" of de-railment regarding this page, make a small personal note...

@Heavy Duty:

Your beret looks black, the flash/crest is too far to your left and you need to bring the rim down. At least fix/auto-correct/photoshop (to improve the distinction of) the beret color. As you know, the dirty nasties have usurped the black beret and rangers went to tan, so let's see that color.

Also, your top looks my era - sup wit dat.

Who cares, seriously.

Also, this post is an example of what is wrong with politics today, you see I'm a liberal, and impose onto me any bad thing, or action you can think of to try and discredit me, when you don't even know me.

Who can spell PARTISAN HACK.
 
That's some enlightened political commentary, right there.

When can I see you on Washington Journal?
Same time I see you over at Media Matters.

BTW, when did the liberals become such boorish boobs that cannot take a joke? Maybe we should make a big batch of sugar tits for just the libs in America. We all know you guys have been wailing over this miserable President you guys supported without knowing anything about him and getting a royal beating in the Nov elections because of it. But "Cheer up Charlie" a sugar tit will make it all better until 2012 when you guys will be crying and whining again.

You are lecturing me on the merits of taking jokes in stride?

I'm not sure why you mentioned Media Matters. I'm not even sure what that site is, but I can only assume that it's intended to be a rebuttal to my comment about Washington Journal. It fails in that capacity, because Washington Journal is broadcasted by C-SPAN, and is characterized by the impartiality that C-SPAN is renowned for. It is not an editorial show in any sense.

In any event, if you'd like to bake cookies for my benefit, do feel free. I didn't actually vote for Obama, but I see no reason why this should prevent me from partaking of such a delicious treat.

No, seriously, why am I expected to drink at the same watering hole as every other man left-of-centre?

To get back on topic, I think it's great to have national leaders openly interested in athletics and physical fitness. Bush was a biker, Obama plays basketball, and I hope that future presidents make a point of mentioning their fitness activities every once in a while.

Of course, involvement in athletics inevitably leads to nicks and scratches, but I doubt that it'll affect his ability to lead the nation.
