President Barack Obama puzzled people when he said Washington "gets all wee-weed up." The White House offered a translation Friday: Folks are wetting the bed over the healthcare debate.
White House press secretary Robert Gibbs was asked during his daily on-camera briefing what Obama meant on Thursday when he decried the way his push for an ambitious healthcare overhaul had been played in the media.
"There's something about August going into September where everybody in Washington gets all wee-weed up," Obama told an audience at the Democratic National Committee headquarters. "I don't know what it is. But that's what happens."
The "wee-weed" comment had reporters looking for a translation from Gibbs, who is from Alabama and known for his colorful Southern idioms.
"Let's do this in a way that is family-friendly. I think wee-weed up is when people just get all nervous for no particular reason," Gibbs said. "Bed-wetting would be probably the more consumer-friendly term."

This probably describes one of the President’s favored sexual practices.

One thing is certain: both 0bama and Gibbs are wienies.

I never realized “wee-weed” is a term used by intellectuals. Obama must have an enormously high IQ.

Does this mean that President Obama was a bed wetter as a child? This sounds like a family code-word to convey the information discretely when in the presence of others.

some of the comments by bozo in this last year have stunned me.
They said Bush was thick and yet there has been records of bozo’s college days.
Then he’s come out with some right whoppers, inflating tires, 57 states, this wee wee, the word stupidly and even saying at the address.
don’t mess with Joe
This is what happens when a guy who is dumb as two shirt planks goes though a system with affirmative action and an American idol audience for voters

Our country has fallen far; this type of stupid crudity from a president is unprecedented, and it is unwelcome.

It's just a mundane and unremarkable intellect's attempt at a witty retort, directed back at Dick Armey's bed-wetter comment from earlier in the week. (And only a liberal bed-wetter would find anything profound in it. Anyone else more astute than a Rhesus monkey just cringes in embarrassment on the world stage.)

I never realized “wee-weed” is a term used by intellectuals. Obama must have an enormously high IQ. I used that term when potty training my babies. Perhaps Obama needs potty (mouth) training?

ok lets face facts
this man and his wife just are not suited to be president.
He’;s dumb, his wife has no class what ever and neither of them can act presidential.
Now to a teenager that is good but to many of us who have traveled, paid our way, worked and seen many things it is not good at all, it is an embarrassment

What does that mean- ‘wee-weed up’? Is that something people in the US are saying nowadays? What does it mean?
