...Obama told her to make a wish on the candle: "You have to blow it out to make it come true."
"She and I also had a common birthday wish. She said she hopes for a real health care proposal," Obama joked. "I will leave it up to you, Helen, how you wish to distribute the cupcakes."

Screw the 1000+ candles, just set the cake on fire.
Surprised the cake didn’t collapse under the weight of the wax....

Did he need the teleprompter (i.e.; the one behind him) for the Birthday Song words?

What a terrible example the POTUS is setting for the Obese children of America who can no longer have cupcakes at their b’day parties at school.

“She said she hopes for a real health care proposal,” Obama joked
Setting to one side the verity that if you tell what you wish for, it won’t come true—Helen’s so far in the bag that she croaks sounds in his ear and he then speaks for her?
Shouldn’t she be in assisted living, instead of the WH press room `entertaining’ other journalists with tales of the Crimean War and the times that FDR, then Jack, tried to cop feels in the cloakroom?

Helen & blow should NEVER be used in the same sentence. Unless you're talking about Helen Hunt, perhaps.
