Was the fainting incident at Obama’s recent press conference staged? At first I dismissed this as just another wild conspiracy theory. But then I watched the video and now I am not so sure. I thought back on the times when I have seen other people faint. It doesn’t look like this and people around them don’t respond like this. When someone faints, they usually fall down. They don’t just lean back, smile and keep on standing. At a minimum, they sit down. In addition people around them don’t just push them back up straight and then back off. Just for snickers, here is the article in the Weekly Standard and the video:
Is this possible? It is hard to believe that a President of the United States would stoop to such a silly stunt. I mean really? Does something think this will somehow help solve the ObamaCare problems? If they did stage this, don’t they realize that the camera catches everything? It is hard to believe they would do something this stupid, but the more I look at it, from this source and from other sources, the more suspicious this becomes.
Perhaps it will help if you watch a real video of someone fainting. The following video shows a lot of people fainting:

Notice that none of these videos resemble what happened here. This woman actually looked better after she leaned back than before. She smiled and then easily walked off the stage, with no assistance. At minimum this wasn’t much of a faint and President Obama hardly caught her. The guy in back of her caught her. All Obama did was stick out his hand and touch her and immediately announce that she is fine. She smiles and agrees, then exits stage left. In the meantime her friend, who had been holding her hand just a minute before, just stood there and smiled without a care in the world. When you combine the obvious, with the things pointed out by the conspiracy theorists, you have to admit she’s got an argument. Sadly, I think this President is fully capable of just such silliness. How pathetic.
By the way, this symbol of people helped by ObamaCare isn’t enrolled in the program and actually doesn’t need the coverage.
