President Barack Obama received 12 stitches Friday after being inadvertently hit with an opposing player's elbow in the lip while playing basketball with friends and family, according to White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs.
The stitches were administered by the White House Medical Unit.
The medical procedure was done in the doctor's office on the ground floor of the White House.

Obviously safer to stay in his office and do some work... for a change.
Obviously he's been doing something right. Either that...or money was falling from the trees this morning for Black Friday.
No, Debbie...actually it's being printed by the Fed. Even though- it's barely worth the paper it's printed on. Unfortunately, those overspending today, will be regretting it more than they can imagine. Sad that the media is more concerned with improving our President's approval numbers, than they are with reporting the truth about what is happening to our economy right now. More sad that even when his followers hear the truth, they refuse to believe it.
Man, is he havin a crappy year or what?! Hope he gets better soon.
Dubya almost dies choking on a pretzel, Obama gets a fat lip playing basketball. Easy to see which is the lesser man.
Hope his government mandated insurance helped out a bit...........................
This is exactly as it should be. Health as a right. With that and education and security out of the way we can as Americans attain the heights of productivity that our talents provide (life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness – all three being impossible without health).
Watch out! Sarah Palin is going to use this to divert attention away from her "N Korea" gaffe.
It was Jimmy Carter's attack rabbit that bit him.
I nominate obama for the purple heart for being wounded in action.
Action would imply he was actually performing a service to the country
After having a busted lip, guess he wont be eating sweets for Christmas Holidays.
This is great news for Democracy. He will be seen as more down to earth, hip, cool and ginned up.
No doubt will help his approval numbers and needed to avoid gridlock in congress.
He may have renewed confidence to go after Repulicans on jobs, Wall street robber barons, Corrupt campaign finance, two wars, torture camp in gitmo and so on.
My God! Green Blood!
Well.... it's about time someone decked him in the mouth
And we wonder why we are involved in so many wars... is it the presidents fault... or people like you... who smile at people getting hurt... seriously...people like u are a disgrace to America and humanity as a whole...its funny you not up on t.v knowing what better to say...
I love Obama. Hope he's better soon.
And we wonder why we are involved in so many wars... is it the presidents fault... or people like you... who smile at people getting hurt... seriously...people like u are a disgrace to America and humanity as a whole... I hope your some really really old person who will no longer have an influence in our future...

Get a life 20 watt.
Oh..Obamacare really does work..
Uhhh
Basketball is fun, but also a very physical sport. He got lucky this time. I torn my knee ACL, and it took me over a year to recover. I quit basketball for tennis now. A lot safer, but equally fun.
