Obama's blue lips - indication of health issue?
vanity ^ | FreeAtlanta

Posted on 02/27/2008 6:57:19 AM PST by FreeAtlanta

excerpted from medhelp;

Low oxygen content of the blood can cause blue lips. This can be due to low counts or due to problems with oxygenation of the blood. It would be interesting to know what your blood oxygen saturation is during the episodes. Do they last for very long? If so then your brother may have time to come over to your house to check with a saturation monitor (many EMTs have this equipment). If it is low then your doctor would have to look for sources of low oxygen such as blood clots, sickle cell disease or other hemoglobin abnormalities. A hematologist could check for these various disorders.

I work in Atlanta. I have lots of black friends and coworkers, and I have bi-racial friends with kids. I haven't noticed lip colors like Obama's, but I wasn't staring at them for an hour long debate on a high definition tv set.

I'll bet that the African part of their ancestry is from way, way back. Barack is second generation African.

I noticed it too, but it could be the make-up artist. I remember how Bill Clinton’s nose always seemed to have a greenish tint, due to the make-up artist trying to tone down the red face.

Ridiculous. The poster needs to grow up.

Not true. This is a classic sign of cardiovascular disease. The poster is correct in being concerned.

I’m putting you on “homo alert” status for even noticing a man’s lips.

I’m curious as to why the MSM hasn’t looked into the medical records of ANY of the candidates. Seems like a very pertinent issue to me.

Maybe Obama just needs to change his makeup guy.

Now that Edwards is out, he could probably get some of his primpers on board his campaign.

Does anyone know if Hillary smokes? Just look at her teeth.

Probably from age & drinking. I don't think she smokes, maybe in her younger days Bubba gave her a cigar!!!!!

>By the time John Kennedy launched his presidential campaign in the late 1950s, new treatments for Addison’s disease (Meticorten and the fluorohydrocortisone derivatives or the glucocorticosteroid compounds) had been developed, the adrenal problems associated with the ailment had become entirely manageable, and a normal life span had become possible for the first time. Nevertheless, Kennedy’s physical condition was made an issue in the campaign, despite a statement by one of his physicians that he was “fully rehabilitated from the depletion of adrenal function which he had suffered as a result of his wartime injuries.”<

You can argue that the individual is ignorant about pigmentation on the lips of some black people, sure, but that hardly makes the individual a racist.

So you say, how about addressing the man's positions like a grown up.

Because it is no different than the using the word nappy.

Yeah, take the Hildabeast, for example:

She could not remember one damn thing she did while questioned during her Grand Jury Testimony

We need to see her medical records. I'm concerned that she is suffering from Alzheimer's, and is therefore not qualified for the Office...

"Jones said he started taking colloidal silver in 1999 in preparation for what he feared might be Y2K disruptions that could lead to a shortage of antibiotics."

Well, it looks like he survived Y2K, so apparently it's effective.

Then why don't you do that on an appropriate thread instead of throwing around the 'racism' word where it doesn't apply?

Because it is no different than the using the word nappy.

So saying that someone's bluish/purplish lips might be a sign of a medical condition is the same as using the word nappy? Good grief, how silly.
