      I guess Obama will now say that the photographer was George Bush, and blame it on him.

    Rick if you are commenting on your own comment you are 100% correct, otherwise give me a break

    This is all a joke. Any photographer worth a damn would have taken another shot. Taking extra shots happens all the time. Someone who wanted the president to look silly released it to the media... and here we have a scandal about NOTHING!

    How it can be??? I'm MONGOLIAN. Barak Obama should apologize from our president.

    C-lo; what is that phrase...about...the one who 'laughs last'? I can't remember it; but you get my point don't you? HA HA LOL! I believe that in November, 2012, BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA will be elected again! Yes, he will be sworn-in as PRESIDENT again on or about January 20, 2013! So what was wrong with the photographers' question? That's 2013!

      Continued gaffes like this without economic improvement means we will be "laughing loudest."
      O-bama, 0-'12, OH @#%#!

    HEY! If I was a Republican and I had to choose between anything the GOP has pushed out here to me, you're right! It certainly would be Ron Paul! He's the most, knowledgeable, intelligent, experienced one on that stage! As a matter of fact, if Biden wasn't hanging in there and doing such a great job as VP, I would vote for Ron Paul right now, in hopes that PRES OBAMA, if all else fails and push came to shove, would cross over and ask him to be his VP! THEY ARE ALMOST ONE IN THE SAME ON THE ISSUES.
