President Obama Refers to Daughter by Wrong Name During CNN Interview (video)
CNN ^ | Sept. 20, 2009

Posted on 09/20/2009 4:41:41 PM PDT by Free ThinkerNY

Obama's daughter is named Malia. His half-sister's name is Maya.

Editor's note: The second clip in this playlist is a post that compares President Obama's statement about Sasha's health to that of Michelle Obama. President Obama seems to be mistaken -- Sasha did not have meningitis.

Now which one of the 57 states was his misnamed daughter born in?

The child must be hospitalised. Meningitis is a serious illness that needs intensive care, and home treatment should not be asked for. The diagnosis of meningitis is first confirmed by blood tests and a special test called a lumbar puncture (spinal tap). If meningitis is suspected, however, antibiotics in high doses are started immediately, without waiting for the results of the tests. A few hours can make a huge difference in the outcome of this life-threatening illness.
If the child is unconscious, admission to an intensive care unit is important. Intravenous fluids, glucose, drugs to control seizures, and other supportive treatment are given, in addition to the intravenous antibiotics. Children with difficulty in breathing may need oxygen inhalation, or help in breathing by a machine called a ventilator.
The antibiotics are usually given for 10-14 days, but a longer duration is needed in newborn babies, and children with poor immunity. The entire course must be given intravenously; there is no place for oral or intramuscular antibiotics in meningitis.

The name he messed up on was NOT Sasha’s and it wasn’t during relating the story of meningitis, either.

Did you watch all the clips?

He said, “Maya and Sasha” when responding to a question about the Swine Flu Vaccine.

The mistakes he made in reference to Sasha and meningitis were the differences between his account’s and Michelle’s account of the episode earlier in the week (age, if she really did have it or not, etc...).

Are they even his kids?

He doesn’t seem to know much about them.

Like a lot of celebrity parents, I'm guessing the kids were generated mostly for show. Baraq was undoubtedly too busy with his budding career in Marxism to have time for significant involvement.

Maybe he will replace John Edwards as "father of the year"

Wow. He just can’t stop stepping in it can he? THAT’s why he needs the dang teleprompter in the first place — to make sure the version of lies in his head match the lies he’s told before...

That Chicago Tribune article though — they can’t confirm which type? Probably because she DIDN’T have a REAL case - only a SUSPECTED/POSSIBLE case which is why the doctor sent her over to the hospital and they had the spinal tap done. Also why her stay was only 3-4 days and not WEEKS.

Like you pointed out in a later post - if she really DID have bacterial meningitis she would NOT have been sent home after 3-4 days (especially as a 3-4 mo. old INFANT).

Not until they find an illegitimate kid and sex tapes with the mistress.

(That’s Geraldo’s blockbuster story tonight: Edwards and Rielle in a sex tape.)

Definitely not. My daughter had it at 8 weeks and although I had just recovered from viral meningitis they weren’t going to take any chances with an infant and she was hospitalized for a week.

It’s not something to toy with at any age.

I have to say that my poor brother’s name came dead last. Even the the dog’s name got called before my mom could remember it. “Ray, Dani, Digger.....Jeff!”

And Melia was jogging around the World Trade Center with Chelsea Clinton when the planes hit, too.

I see the resemblance to her brother the President, especially in the left prompter.
