to watch Malia Obama walk. Does the young lady have a spine or hip deformity of some kind?

Catching a news blip of them deplaning in Hawaii reminded me of this. I'm at a loss why her parents do not teach, or do not hire someone to teach, that beautiful girl how to carry herself. She walks like a lumbering yak...usually with head down.

...just something that has bugged me this past year...
there...it's off my chest...
just wiping the slate clean for the new year. lol

Wow. On Christmas Day, racism so intense it manifests itself in an attack on someone's child.

Supply-Side Jesus must be so proud.

Identifying her as a "beautiful girl" is terribly racist, isn't it?

"She walks like a lumbering yak," etc.?

Just admit it, Iky--you hate the Obama family because they're black.

Yeah...and I hate my black family members, too, because they're black.

And you hate me because I'm white.

If so, did you not provide them with guidance on the importance society places on a good first impression...not to mention developing healthy habits? Poor posture and awkward gait can not only cause health complications, they can be a symptom of underlying health problems.

As our daughter was developing, it was important to us as parents to encourage correct posture and with that the development of graceful movement. Our daughter is in her mid-thirties today, and she remains conscious to the benefit of maintaining correct posture and balance.

I was admiring her grace and beauty and beautiful posture last night as she was leading worship music for her church's Christmas Eve service. I felt sorry (as I have in the past) that Malia suffers from such poor posture and awkward gait. It's always really bugged me that it seems her parents aren't interested in helping correct it. I wondered if she had a congenital spine or hip condition at the cause. Sue me.

Heres what I hate... I hate the arthritis that has been in my hands for the passed 20 years and the hip problems that have been bugging me for the last 15. Bottom line is, I can probably sympathise with Ms. Obama as I am not a pretty sight to look at when I walk.
The wife can outwalk and probably out run me as well, other then that, health is pretty good so I guess I should be thankful this Christmas season.
Anyway, I have not seen the Obama's family in the news lately, is there footage or a clip somewhere where you saw her walk?

I'm with you, fuzzy. My $500 orthodics help me walk a bit better, but they sure don't stop my feet from hurting.
