Damn, Obama is Skinny!

Here's the funniest slant on Obama I've seen yet!

Watch the first two minutes of this video, where Arnold, of all people, calls Obama out for being so skinny:




Obama needs to begin working out! As a potential president elect, this just won't do:



I remember reading an article just after Bush's nomination concerning how he turned his life around, from alcoholic to president. The article emphasized Bush's workout program, which was impressive for his age. Bush advisors commented that by working out, Bush maintained the strong physical appearance that people expect in a leader.

I decided to see what other info there was on Obama's physique and training. However, after a 2 min search (which is normally sufficient for similar inquiries), I couldn't find a reliable answer, not even for his weight. Obama's weight is stated to be from 160 lbs to 210 lbs (the latter I seriously doubt), depending on the source. Really the only thing that I did find was this potential account of Obama's workout program:

It's evident that I can't let this subject go lol. Anyhow, here's a photo of Barack visiting the gym I'm a member of! This was Nov 08, and no, I wasn't there to pressure him into lifting heavier, dammit.

You are the one who put me down by calling me a condesending little ass!

Caligo, I'm not saying that you are not intelligent..I just feel saddened that you are so rigid in your thinking. I think it's very good that you care so much, but not good that anyone that disagrees with you is seen as the enemy. I think when the only way someone can win is to put others down..that is not really winning. This presidential race has taken it's toll on everyone, and brought out the worst in us all. I think first and foremost, we should all remember that we are Americans..and no matter how our policies differ, we all want the best for this country. So..truce okay. I don't mean anything personally bad against you.

Whats sad is people like you who can't accept the truth.

I'm actually very intelligent, your just blind to the truth. Obama did crack, meth, and smoked pot in college. He even mentions drug use in his book.

Caligo..you really are sad. 20 years old and you really think you know it all.

Also, Obama is skinny because he used to be a drugie!

I absolutly love Arnold, I love that speech, but why the hell do I care about Obama's workout? The reason Republicans are in shape is because they work for a living and working toughens up your body. Liberals wouldn't know about that!
