White House: Obama Needs 12 Stitches after Being Hit in Lip During Basketball Game
MSNBC ^ | November 26, 2010 | Staff

Posted on 11/26/2010 12:19:18 PM PST by lbryce

President Barack Obama received 12 stitches in his lip after being hit during a pick up basketball game, the White House said on Friday.

"After being inadvertently hit with an opposing player's elbow in the lip while playing basketball with friends and family, the president received 12 stitches today administered by the White House Medical Unit," White House press secretary Robert Gibbs said, according to NBC News.

Gibbs did not release the names of the people playing with the president.

Obama had traveled to Fort McNair with a group of family and friends for an early morning game of basketball.

The president is a sports fan, roots for his hometown Chicago teams and has often gone golfing in addition to playing basketball.

I saw the picture of him...not a bit of sweat on that shirt so I'm betting he slipped and fell and put his own teeth through his lip. We need to call in CIS.

Doesn't matter...truth can be bought in this administration.

This idiot in the Oval Office spends more time playing golf or basketball than any person I have ever known.

Does he ever work?

Are they sure that Michelle didn’t do it? ;-)

I'm pretty sure she did. First, Michelle could clock Obommie no prob, and this seems like when Tiger Woods got beat up by his wife with a golf club - the basketball horse hockey has got to be a cover story.

I’ve always been suspicious of these so-called basketball games with Obama and his gay body man Reggie Love. I wonder what really happened.

It reminds me of a football cheer:

Hit ‘em a lick
Hit ‘em a lick
Harder, Harder!
