WASHINGTON – The White House says President Barack Obama has received 12 stitches in his lip after being hit during a pick up basketball game.

White House press secretary Robert Gibbs says the president was inadvertently struck by someone's elbow Friday.

The president received the stitches in the doctor's office on the ground floor of the White House. Obama had traveled to Fort McNair with a group of family and friends for an early morning game of basketball.

Obama is a sports fan, roots for his hometown Chicago teams and has often gone golfing in addition to playing basketball.


12 stitches for Obama after errant elbow in hoops - Yahoo! News
 
Hmmm...maybe he'd be better off playing more golf?

Oh, wait....
 
oh wait.... what a real tough man! :cool2:

what's next? forest fire-fighting? :Ohno:
 
perhaps he should take up golfing with Obama. They ain't getting younger.
 
At least he didn't fall down a flight of stairs.
 
Obama will probaby try and get a Purple Star for his, um, "war" injury and pad it for his resume.
 
Like I said, he'd pad his resume' kind of like how Hillary claimed she dodged bullets while on the tarmac in Bosnia. Stuff of legends, you know?
