Just three weeks after getting a shellacking in the midterm elections, President Obama got a fat lip.
The president played basketball yesterday with some friends in the gym of the Fort McNair Army Base, and reportedly took an elbow in the mouth from an opposing player who went up for a shot.
It took 12 stitches to close The First Fat Lip, if you please. I'm not sure that Joe Frazier needed 12 stitches after the Thrilla in Manila, though the White House stressed that a smaller filament was used, which increases the number of stitches, but leaves a smaller scar.
I wonder if having a larger scar wouldn't actually fortify President Obama's profile, as he contends with Kim Jong Il, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad or Vladimir Putin. Imagine a president with a gnarly, vivid scar telling the rulers of China, "Nice country ya' got here. I'd hate to see something happen to it if you didn't stop foolin' around with the value of your currency. Know what I mean?"
As recent presidential injuries go, President Obama's is almost valiant. His immediate predecessor, President George W. Bush, famously choked on a pretzel. President Bill Clinton tore a tendon stumbling on the steps of Greg Norman's house after a round of golf.
But an elbow in the chops is a battle ribbon in basketball. Mediocre players don't have to worry about their dental work. An elbow is given to aggressive players who swing their own sharp limbs to grab a ball or push off a defender, although the White House stressed that the president was elbowed inadvertently.

Has someone told him to put some ice on it?
Anyone seen any photos of Zero’s busted lip? A 12 stitch cut would be bloody.
I hear the score was tied 6-6 at the time.
Fat lip!What fat lip?did anyone notice it?
Now Obama has a fat lip to go with his fat head. I literally have not been able to look at this imposter. It infuriates me that he is on TV every single day.
He is a disgrace to the nation. But now I eagerly await a glimpse of him. I would bet that he won’t be on the screen until his lip has healed. He is way too egotistical to allow himself to be seen with his lip stitched. It would be wonderful if they just stitched his pie hole shut , period.
Isn’t there something feminine about the way this guy pitches? Is he a girlie man?
Doesn't the Anti-Christ need to suffer a mortal wound to the head?

That’s what I say.
Head wounds tend to be gushers.

I mean, cuts himself shaving his face, not his legs...
Man, I love watching these people melt down...
10:1 that Axlerod has told him that he’s now bled for his country.
I thought Axelrod bailed already.
Looks like he’s huffing on a bag of glue.
If only they could have given him a brain, a heart and courage. You’re not in Moscow any more Obongo!
So.... when will Obama be awarded The Purple Heart?
