President Obama took a selfie with British Prime Minister David Cameron and Danish Prime Minister Helle Thorning-Schmidt while seated in the audience at Nelson Mandela’s memorial service in South Africa on Tuesday.

Then maybe you should have mentioned that she should have done a search first. Just my opinion. It’s less caustic.

It is interesting that her post is still in breaking news, though.

The writer at the link did his best to gloss over the incident and exculpate his Messiah and idol. I had to scroll up to ascertain the article wasn't written by Bill O'Reilly.

I hope Obama didn't order a cheese Danish while breakfasting with Michelle this morning.

It’s not inappropriate if the American people say it is appropriate.

The man smiling on the left of theh photo looks like he could be related to Chris Christie.

I remember this AR performance, but the American people don’t and maybe never did.

Who wants a Grinch like Moochie in a happy snapshot?

These kids are just having fun at Mandela’s memorial service. A wasted trip to bury a communist has to have some lighter moments.

Oh, wait. Obama is a communist as well. Show some proper, grim decorum Mr. Let’s Pretend you’re pissing off that wookie on your left.

Couldn’t happen to a nicer guy...

This picture is frigging hilarious...

Yukking it up at a funeral with a hottie, and Miss Misery is NOT obviously NOT as enchanted as the Sock Puppet is...

Gotta love it...

That’s our guy... pure class, all the way...

Sure makes ME proud... yeah... uh huh....

Can you imagine the SNL skits if Bush had done this?

I think shaking hands with Robert Mugabe was worse.

We couldn’t expect much better for her Grandson.”

The Klingon is clearly perturbed with the Nitwit’s actions. I’ve seen a few photos of the incident. One photo shows The Klingon moved seats to place herself between Nitwit and the Blonde, jealousy?

Moochelle hates white women! Plenty of photos of her glaring at white women.

Michelle Obama;

Methinks you owe the Klingon an apology.

With O’s hand on the camera to make sure he got in the shot.

I’ve been to a few memorial ceremonies and I never laughed and had my picture taken with a big toothy smile. Laughing and smiling for a picture at a memorial service is disrespectful.

Everything he does in public is inappropriate and ghetto-inspired. He’ll never be anything but a low-life gutter snipe. You can dress him up, but you can’t take him anywhere.
