LOL! I see you finally got a photoshop of Obama’s flag being flushed down the toilet logo.
I like it. This is especially a good picture for this story because it makes you want to hurl.
This is supposed to be a professional reporter? I realize she’s off the clock, but I’m pretty sure that this gushing, disgusting swoon can guarantee a lack of objectivity when she does don her journalist hat.
She sounds like a hormonal tweenie posting on a fan site
Yeah, I figured BS as soon as I saw the weight. Now, if he was doing barbells, that would not be a problem. But from the description, it doesn’t seem like that explanation makes sense.
He looked like an un-athletic dork on that phony bicycle photo op awhile back, so I too doubt the authenticity here.

There’s an Argentine tennis player, David Nalbandian, who sweats so profusely, that the ball kids have to come out with towels and wipe down his baseline between games. I remember John McEnroe commenting one time that that’s a measure of how efficient the blood is at dissipating heat, a sign of extreme fitness. If it’s true, that means that 0bama may be ill.
I disagree. Not about the other parts of the workout, of course, but what makes most of us think BS is that even workout warriors with big frames and clearly larger than Obama can have trouble with a 70 lb dumbbell (not barbell, which would be a cinch for many of us to do.)
It’s just not common and though sometimes wiry people can be quite strong, it just doesn’t make much sense that this dude can heft 70 lbs SEVERAL times with one arm.
What’s German for ‘Barf Alert’?
I still think she weighs more than 70lbs.
“There you go...the dumbbell reporter did not understand the difference between a barbell and a dumbbell”
Were you really expecting much, considering this encounter took place at 16:02 PM?
sounds like a budding network star.
She carries the company line that Obamma Lamma Ding Dong is a stud monkey.
When many of us know he is really just a monkey.
“I have a hard time believing that Obama is doing curls with 70 pound dumbbells.”

Me too! I was in the gym this morning and did hammer curls with 65 pound dumbbells and believe me it ain’t easy! Of course I am 18 years older than the amazing one but I also weigh 270 and have 17 1/4 inch arms and better than a 52 inch chest measurement and I grew up on the farm. I have a hard time visualizing pencil neck handling 70pounders for curls. I certainly have a hard time with him using 32 kilo dumbbells which would actually be MORE than 70 pounds!
Ten sit ups isn’t impressive, but 70-lb dumbell curls would be...if it were true, which it isn’t.
You'd be right. THis is total B.S. I've been lifting over 20 years. Those scrawny little arms of his might be able to do 70lbs total. 35lbs each arm, maybe, but I doubt even that.
But then, this ditz probably has no real idea what weights are what. Usual "lite" workout twit.................
