"By the way, I just noticed, if you've got chairs, feel free to sit down," President Obama said to a student audience in New Britain, Connecticut on Wednesday.

"I know the folks here don't have chairs," Obama said, pointing to the audience members in the front row.

"And if you're standing up, make sure to bend your knees so you don't faint," Obama instructed.

I didn’t want to say that but... He seemed quite familiar with this routine of assistance. Now, some of those folks may have not fainted, at all, they heard his voice droning on just dozed off a couple of times.

Until the Disapproval rating hits at least 68% and stays there for a few months, I’m guessing the Zombies are still drinking their sweet blue kool-aid as per Obama’s orders.

What’s that old bumpersticker’ If you’re not OUTRAGED you’re not paying attention!!’.

I learned that while I was in video production. Running camera at a meeting all day long, you have to unlock your knees, or look out below!

I’ve had one helluva winter and a particularly shitty week, but WTH does he mean?

He still thinking people faint in his presence? If so, we may have to re-calibrate all the narcissism and conceit scales in the DSM.

I never fall asleep from his voice. We have it automatically tuned out immediately each time it attempts to force itself on us.

He should have offered to let them use his presidential knee-pads. I wanted to reach through the TV and slap the gay kid with the earring sitting behind Berry, looking up at him with goo goo eyes. It was disgusting.

Worst thing ever to happen to this country bar none. An arrogant, effete, dishonest, muslim, oafish, clown. My contempt for this creature increases exponentially, and firmly believe it is high time to start holding the people who reelected him responsible for the wreckage this classless usurper hath wrought..

What he meant to say was, “Drop your drawers and bend your knees. My minions will then lead from behind.”

Yep. With Obama it's "Bend your knees so you can kneel before Zod."
