"I know the folks here don't have chairs," Obama said, pointing to the audience members in the front row.
"And if you're standing up, make sure to bend your knees so you don't faint," Obama instructed.

Words he's heard from Reggie, I don't doubt.

Osama failed to take into account the fact that getting a thrill up one’s leg can cause unsteadiness as well.

Obama’s election to office in 2008 was largely the result of a phenomena of mass catharsis on behalf of single white females and their sexual fantasies with and obedience to the tall effeminate black male. This sounds sick and twisted but how else do you explain adoration of him amidst the worst political scandals in American history?

NOW he’s practicing medicine without a license. I guess its no difference than pretending to be a US citizen.

The way he runs his mouth, don’t try to stand up for one of his bloviating speeches. Loooooooooong winded and shining his adoring public on. - Tick tock. His term will one day be caput. Whew.

How ironic he would say what he said, on the day that begins the most important Christian season of the year, Lent with Ash Wednesday.

"This is a huge moment: Obama tells the truth. I am gobsmacked."
So am I that he finally told a truism. While in boot camp, I watched some poor guy in formation fall directly on his face and broke his jaw and cheek bone. It was determined later by witnesses that he had locked his knees. To this day, I always relax my legs while in the shower or standing for any length of time.
