Where’s the fake presidential seal when you need it?

Via CBS News’ Mark Knoller’s Twitter feed:

Obama tells Summit of Powerful Women: “As Michelle Obama’s husband, I feel very much at home.”

As Obama was speaking, the Seal of the President falls off his lectern. “That’s all right,” he said” “All of you know who I am.”

Obama said he knows somebody backstage responsible for his Presidential Seal is “sweathing bullets right now.”

[…]

Obama’s right. Somebody’s gonna catch hell for the seal falling off the front of the lectern while he was speaking.

Wonder why? As I noted on Twitter, I’d be wouldn’t be surprised if someone had the fake seal used during the campaign on standby just in case something ever happened to the real seal …

Just sayin’.

Weds. AM Update – 6:10 AM: The AP has a brief write-up on the seal story (via Memeorandum).
