Sister Toldjah Captures Obama Fainter on Video
In her never ending - and utterly fruitless - quest to figure out just what makes a liberal tick, Sister Toldjah captured the moment:
So like while I was at tonight’s “Get Out The Vote Rally” featuring BO, at roughly 6:55, about 30 minutes into his speech, guess what happens? Someone faints. I hadn’t heard about this happening in a while, at least not since there had been quite a bit of discussion in the blogosphere a couple months ago about all the fainting episodes, and how they all seemed so strangely similar. Well, add another one to the list.
I can’t believe I actually got this! It’s so short (three seconds) because I’m still getting used to all the bells and whistles on this camera, and did not have it set on the video setting when I first heard BO call for an EMT but when he did, I quickly turned it to video and hit the start button, but I hit it again about three seconds later because I wasn’t sure I had started it - but now I know that meant I switched it off. Look closely, and you’ll see at the 2 second mark, people fanning someone in the crowd (watch the guy in the red hat and shirt kneeling over, and note the people turned around in the front looking, a couple of people look like they are fanning someone). It happened about 4 or 5 rows from the front of the crowd, and right in the center in a spot that was close and very visible for BO. I took the video right after Obama had just gotten done calling for a medic and saying the usual stuff he does when someone faints at one of his rallies.
