(Reuters) - U.S. President Barack Obama has a sore throat and has gone to Walter Reed military hospital for testing, the White House said on Saturday.

Exactly. Why the hell would they just not have a doctor come to the white house?

[Arthur McGowan]

The “president” is in the hospital?

One must hope and pray for the best...for the country.

[AppyPappy]

Exactly. We need to be praying for him.

The Nicorette gum he was chewing in front of world leaders on camera the other week is a tipoff to me that he's still smoking in the White House pantry room when the urge gets too great.

I don’t know about smoking and drinking, but I know it’s associated with Agent Orange. My best friend died from it after being exposed in Vietnam

[MeshugeMikey]

I dont know why he doesnt simply uncork a bottle of his one size fits all ..FIX ALL...?

I read a big article recently about the White House Dr. who is required to stay within a FEW FEET of the President every minute.

She said the tricky part is staying just out of all the photos. She is apparently always at his shoulder, so it seems odd, considering that there is basically a full hospital right in the White House, for this ~obama person~ to have to leave the premise for minor testing.

They are probably just trying to humanize the guy. Get people concerned. Blah.

Reports out of Man’s Country are that he might have given a few cases of that, but not the other way around.

Time to lay off the booze, finally?

[MeshugeMikey]

if it was Good Enough FOr AMERICA...why isnt it GOOD ENOUGH for the OBIE??....

[newfreep]

He’s such a weakling.

He’s a MUZZIE.
He’s a WUSSIE.

He’s a MUSSIE!

[Arthur McGowan]

To do what?

[wrench]

That can’t be possible. Was he ever around someone exposed to ebola??? /s

[AppyPappy]

He’s a smoker. There could be a cancer indicator.

[AppyPappy]

Salvation, health.

Do you want to endure a State Funeral for him? I sure don’t.

[Sacajaweau]

He did have a housecall. His doctor recommended that he go to the hospital.

But I just know there's a lie in this story someplace. No one mentions that Michelle went with him...or I've missed it.

[TomGuy]

It would really be terrible if he has Ebola.

Being quarantined. 21 days -- without golf. He'd go insane.
