[SMARTY]

I am sorry...but I don't get the point of this article. How is Romney's expression more newsworthy than the bare facts of what actually happened, why it happened and Romney's response to it?

I think the MSM scribblers and loudmouth idiots need to grow up and start seeing themselves and their ‘profession’ in a little more mature perspective.

This is what you get when numb skulls calling themselves ‘journalists’ and the dumbed-down Americans who comprise their audience have spent tooooo much time with the Liberal and childishly subjective approach to real life and real life issues.

It's time to return to facts.

Blame Watergate, when suddenly journalism became about "Changing the World."

Deflect the blame for what happened

Distract with another issue, real or imagined

Demagogue the opposition as if you know whats up and they are stupid, especially if its the opposite

[Political Junkie Too]

The point of the article is that the MSM is trying to paint Romney as an insincere, crass, political opportunist. The smirk is supposed to be a "tell" that proves that Romney is self satisfied at what he just did.
