Man Collapses During Commencement Speech by President Obama in Michigan – Video Report
Freedom's Lighthouse ^ | June 8, 2010 | Brian

Here is a video report on a man who collapsed during President Obama’s speech at a High School Graduation in Kalamazoo, Michigan. The older man apparently went into cardiac arrest as the President was speaking. Michigan State Senator Tom George was in the audience and said the man “was not breathing and he was pulse-less” when he got to him. George and others initiated CPR until paramedics were able to take the man to the hospital. He is reportedly “responding to treatment.”

Has Barry claimed credit for saving the guy with his new healthplan?

Did his tellyprompter pause for a respectful silence while the paramedics were at work? Or did he harangue the audience over what they should do to revive him?

Be still my heart!

More people have died at Obama speeches than at Tea Party Events.

Live and learn.

First off, prayers for him if he really did become ill.

next, are they sure he wasn't taken down for shouting at the self-appointed Messiah?

Obviously, he succumbed to Obama’s bullshit.

Probably not. He has to get to burgerrs and fries and then golf and then a fund raiser (all in different cities)... Can't mess with the schedule.

My dad saved the guy having a heart attack seated behind him at my college graduation, by giving him CPR.

The picture of my college graduation the next day - above the fold - was my daddy’s hind quarters bent over the MI guy with doctors in full graduation regalia standing around watching him.

That’s because this was real and not a swooning Obama plant that collapsed on cue.

The man was "pulseless" according to Michigan State Senator Tom George [GOP]. CPR was administered and the man is responding to treatment. WHICH PROVES that once a person is removed from Obama's influence, the person tends to be a lot better off.
