Is the president losing weight? Critics claim stress of leading the country has left Obama frail
Daily Mail UK ^ | April 11, 2012

Already engaged in a strenuous re-election battle, spiking gas prices and a fragile economy appear to be taking a toll on Barack Obama.

Obama, 50, was pictured at a campaign event in Florida today looking a little worse for wear, looking extremely tired and frail, his shoulders narrower than usual.

The photo was splashed atop the Drudge Report website with the headline: SHOCK PHOTOS: Obama, Thin And Wasting Away’.

Much like Adele, Jessica Simpson and Miley Cyrus, weight has been a key issue for Obama in the eyes of the media since he became the Democratic presidential nominee in 2008.

Some conservative opponents jokingly asked if the then-Illinois senator was too skinny to be president.

Failure is stressful

Bingo. The economy is still in the tank, the jobs numbers are horrible, his internal polling shows bad news on the horizon, there's more trouble brewing in the middle east, he can't smoke in public etc. The Presidency is a tough position, but especially so when you're failing.

AIDS and an evil heart. And fear. He needs to be made more afraid.

He should have listened to Nancy Reagan and just said no.

I’m sure he upchucks and loses another pound or two every afternoon after reviewing his polling internals

I think it’s more like the stress of being found out.

I looked at the pics and he does not appear that skinny. Matter of fact that was normal weight 40-50 years ago. Our opinions are skewered due to all the fat people out there what is considered normal today.

He has the most ‘elastic’ face I’ve ever seen and the evil from within is showing in his face now. Especially his eyes.

May Obama fade away until there is nothing left of him but a rictus of a fascist cheshire cat grin. And let them vote for it!

He’s probably worn out. Keeping 300 million people lied to is a lot of work.
