President Obama

[rushmc 23]

I rarely watch any tv or tv news anymore. But, today I happen to catch a news segment where the President was speaking.

Now, we have all seen the effects of the job has on Presidents. Clinton and Bush being the most recent. The 8 years had a big effect on how healthy they looked.

So, back to today. For all of those who watch more frequently, is Obama looking rougher, faster, than what we have seen in the past? Maybe he has just had a hard week but when I saw him today, I did not think he looked healthy.

Yes he does look rough. He has lost weight (he says he is still within what he considers normal fluctuation) and has a lot of new grey hair. He is in his late forties so the onset of grey hair is not surprising, but no doubt the stress of the job is contributing.

The hair and the weight are noticeable but it was more his complexion and looking very very tired I thought I saw

He should get out and play a few more rounds of golf. It's great for relieving stress.

YA!! But, Bush played fewer rounds (and got nailed for it more) and looked better longer.

Maybe playing too much golf???

I thought I had read somewhere that he has a habit of skipping meals. Having a lean, mean President is one thing, healthy is better.

So I try and I scream and I beg and I sigh
Just to prove I'm alive, and it's alright
'Cause tonight there's a way I'll make light of my treacherous life
Make light!

Agreed. He should not be skipping meals or periodic golf games. He needs them both

No such thing as too much golf, especially on the tax payers dime.

Maybe he needs to take a break from vetting all his czars. From his quality, centrist, hard working and tax paying picks, he is obviously up all night stressing over it.

Don't know, but the dude don't look good IMO right now. Regardless of my and his politics, I hope he takes care of himself. Life is not a good thing to skimp on or throw away. Especially over politics

I don't feel sorry for him; he knew damned well what he was getting himself into. It's his job. As The Commander in Chief he's just one of the troops.

Will you support him?

Yeah, Jeannie, you're absolutely right - it looks really lame when a conservative starts a thread saying the President looks tired and that he hopes he's ok.

Given your prior successes* in detecting sarcasm and satire, you can't.

* that's more sarcasm, btw.

NO, not the way he is fiddle fucking around with this decision.

Either get them help or get them out of Afghanistan.

Letting so many die while he tries to figure out the best political answer for him is criminal

You do realize its the winter season in a country that is mostly mountainous. Most fighting in regions like that start with the spring offensives...

Oh thats right.. you could'nt realize that... carry on with your bashing.

How, exactly, is delaying his decision failing to help the troops already in Afghanistan? Do you think he's cut off supplies in the meantime? This line of thinking being pushed by the Republicans makes no sense to me.

so between now and spring time we should just let the soldiers die waiting for reinforcements? If sending more troops is the answer then shouldn't they already be on the way, if changing the tactics is the correct action shouldn't it be done now?
