On Monday, the Obama White House reportedly held a moment of silence for the victims of last week’s Boston terror attack. For whatever reason, however, the press was barred and the White House released this photo of the president looking at his shoes paying his respects:
Over at White House Dossier, Keith Koffler notes that this is another in a series of carefully crafted images released from the White House designed to craft Obama’s image in the wake of the terrorist attack:
Presidents rarely engage in this type of private symbolism, which has regal sense to it – the leader presuming that citizens will want to know he has paternal concern for them and possesses a deep sense of empathy. Obama could easily have taken the more traditional route for the leader of a republic and led the nation together in a moment of silence.
Or he could have privately observed the moment without mentioning it to anyone.

The list, Ping
Let me know if you would like to be on or off the ping list
He still needed a teleprompter.
Looks like he’s yankin’ his wanger.
Maybe the reason, is that he didn’t observe the moment of silence at the time of the 1st explosion, like others did.
Was he facing Mecca during the moment of silence?
I see they hid his prayer rug for this photo op.
It looks like he’s taking a leak on the flag.
From the article: “ these at least have the practical value of showing citizens that the president is on top of a dangerous situation.”
The last time Obama was ‘on top of’ a real ‘dangerous situation’ was somewhere inside that queer bath house in Chicago named “Man’s Country”.
The Potemkin President.

the guy is an insult to all Americans....his entire term has been nothing but photo ops...he and his wife with her fake, phony bangs can't leave soon enough for me...
They’ve installed some in his shoes, apparently.
So that is the direction of Mecca from the Oval Orifice.
“Looks like he’s yankin’ his wanger.”
Ya gotta have one first.
lol! That's probably what he wishes he was doing.
Looks like he’s trying to pee precisely on the edge of the carpet.
He’s so fake...entitlement junkies voted this on the rest of us...as if we already don’t do more and give more to these lazy pieces of crap — then we get this photo-—big slap in the face!
Or whizzing on the carpet.
