Once again, Obama talks about his imaginary nonexistent son to make a political point. Obama told >The New Yorker he would not let his imaginary son, who resembles Trayvon Martin, to play professional football.
Obama says his imaginary son would look like Trayvon.
The Hill reported:
President Obama said that he believed NFL players “know what they’re doing” and understood the impact that concussions could have on their long-term health in an interview with The New Yorker published on Sunday, adding that he would not let his son play pro football.
“At this point, there’s a little bit of caveat emptor,” Obama said. “These guys, they know what they’re doing. They know what they’re buying into. It is no longer a secret. It’s sort of the feeling I have about smokers, you know?”
In August, the NFL agreed to a $765 million settlement in a lawsuit brought against the league by former players. The league did not admit any liability or that brain injuries were the result of playing football, but the money will be split among former players and medical researchers. A federal judge has not yet approved the deal.

But how many NFL players have to check with their father before signing a contract?
I can see the scenario at the signing...
"Of course we're assuming you have your father's permission?"
"What, you don't?" "In that case, see ya!"

ZitatI'm extremely moved by the loving, caring relationship the President always seems to have with his imaginary son.
Funny that he (Obama) doesn't seem to have the same sympathy for the black, crack addicted prostitutes who are murdered by their black, crack dealing pimps on a daily basis. Or the black gangsters who are murdering each other over turf (and less.)
No symbolic adoptions there that I have noticed.
And, just for the hell of it, while we're on the subject of phantom progeny - Google "Renee L Abena Obama".
