A gentleman would have immediately helped her back on her feet and said "are you alright mam?". Afterward he would say to himself "screw what Michelle thinks this is proper thing to do!"

Instead, the man-child-in-chief stares and laughs at the incredibly embarrassed young woman.

She was back on her feet and walking away before anyone could react.

To be fair, she was on her feet again before anyone could reasonably have reacted.

The site says her name is Capricia Marshall - maybe she was attempting a caprice.

Well, maybe your right, but, she got up so fast he really didn’t have enough time to do anything.

Obama is no gentleman.

Remember George Bush entiring the secret service scrum in Chile and hauling his personal agent out?

Oone more shame on the office among many.

Whay would anyone be surpised? He’s just standing there and watching the whole world fall down and not doing anything but bowing and kissing the a$$es of scum.

Mind you I wouldn’t cross the street to piss on Obama, but fair is fair. The woman bounced up immediately after slipping, as Obie was starting in her direction. You lose credibility for slamming him when he doesn’t have it coming.

Fortunately she was able to catch herself before hitting the surface. Some dresses are very hard to walk in. I know when I wear dresses like that... ;-) Okay..., /s

I thought the dress looked very nice on her.

Geez. At least be objective. By the time he started turning in her direction she was already on her feet and going down the stairs. And, no, he didn't stare and laugh.

By the way, it's "ma'am."

No credit. If she had broken her spine he would’ve done nothing. It’s “beneath” him. Below his “pay grade” etc.

I was waiting for this to come up. I imagine Bush or someone near would have helped her.

There are those that believe he is Superman, but he isn’t. Only Superman could have gotten there fast enough to help her up. She apparently has a rubber ass.

She did fine, but he should have said something. Bush would have. But then, Bush was a gentleman.

She cannot be a liberal. She got up by herself.

I had the same questions this morning before I viewed the video.

The misleading photo shows her sitting there and no one flinching to go to her rescue. But the video shows it happened very fast. She was down and up in a split second. Still, no one broke protocol to approach her and see how she was doing.

Had she stayed on the carpet, she probably wouldn't have slipped. Notice she was walking on the slick marble surface.

With so much out there to critisize Mr. Obama about, this is not one of them. She was back on her feet before anyone could react.
