Obama Goes Without Bike Helmet

Not a very good example, Mr. President.

Did anyone check in his basket? I bet it’s there, right next to his Kool filters.

why does he need a bike helmet when he’s riding around with his daughters in a field or whatever? The speed at which they’re riding seems more just a photo op. Did you see all the secret service.

Remember how many people thought he looked like a dork when he had his picture taken with a bike helmet in michigan? Guess you can’t win

his seat’s too high…well someone had to say it.

thank science
he did something right!

because he’s the president…simple.

as president shouldn’t he be setting an example about being rational and not ruled by fear?

ha, maybe in utopia.
really though, the only time i find it odd when i see someone with no helmet is when they’re with their kids who do have
helmets on. bit of a mixed message, no?
and besides…your the pres., the whole planet is watching, use your head and stop trying to look cooooool.

A helmet on him would be moot.

To bad he was not in an Aero position doing 45 MPH without the helmet and pulled a Greg Bennett. (no offense meant to Greg, who I hope will be racing again very soon.)

A helmet on him would be moot.
because he smokes?

i don’t understand your point? i’m sure Greg was wearing a helmet when he had his accident…

It must be a bitch for the security detail. You can see those guys signed up to ride shotgun in a car not ride bikes!

Maybe he’s waiting for me to buy him one?

That’s too good!! LOL

Maybe he wants his tan to be symmetrical?

Another “do as I say not as I do” moment. Maybe he thought if he had an accident he could try out his new health plan.

A helmet on him would be moot.

uh no. because he’s proven he’s brain dead already

He doesn’t need a helmet because there are secret service agents lining the ground creating a cushion should he fall.

Fox news hid it. :slight_smile:
