I don't think we sould give Obama too much grief over his new appearance. Your first real job after college can cause a lot of stress.
Eyebrows raised over the weekend as President Obama walked out of the gym at Fort McNair -- appearing thin as a rail!
Rigorous workouts and high-stress basketball games are said to be behind the dramatic weight loss.
"No, he's not chain smoking," claims an insider. "He's working non-stop for the country... yes, he does occasionally skip meals."
The president explained in Miami last week: "Just because I'm skinny doesn't mean I'm not tough."


1. He looks like Princess Diana at the height of her bulimia.
2. Who let him out dressed like that?? This man should NEVER dress down. W sweating from running or working on the ranch looked way better than this. I cannot believe this is the president.

I like his libtard logic. Just because I'm skinny doesn't mean I'm not tough.
Yeah that's logical. Just cause he's a Marxist doesn't mean he's no for Capitalism.

I also liked the "he's working non-stop for the country" remark.
The story was about him leaving the gym after a basketball game.
"He's playing basketball non-stop for the country".

Perhaps he is on the MJ regimen to 'lighten' up?
I wonder if he moonwalks, too?

So wait -- does this mean that he is working out more and playing basketball more than before he was elected (otherwise he would have been that thin to begin with), while simultaneously working non-stop for the country?
We are left to conclude that Obama has actually altered the meaning of time itself.

Wonder if he could pass a drug test?

Besides too many pep pills, could he have AIDS?

Obama needs his picture to fit on those Get Out The Vote door hangers, 'cause the next batch will feature both him and Michelle.
