MOSCOW (WNB) - Russian President Vladimir Putin was overheard commenting Thursday on a recently released video of President Obama pumping iron in a Polish hotel (below).
The Russian president was preparing to be interviewed on a local news program when he joked about the video, apparently unaware he was being recorded.
"I think it's good Mr. Obama is working on wing strength, maybe he will become the first chicken to fly," said the laughing Putin.
White House spokesman Jay Carney defended President Obama, calling him "more like a brave pigeon or resolute sparrow."
