PHOTOS: Obama's gaffe with Merkel today?

[NYC Liberal]

Obama didn't give Merkel the traditional "surprise backrub" today when he arrived in Germany.

You can tell she was how annoyed she was by Obama's embarrassing slight.

Right?

;)

1. Love your sarcasm and humor.

Some people won't get it, I'm afraid.

[NYC Liberal]

5. Sadly you might be right

[smoogatz]

2. But it does appear that he's about to give her nipple a friendly pinch

so that's something, at least.

6. That's the traditional greeting in Germany.

You should try it next time you're there.

8. LOL n/t

11. The continental titty twist (I hear) is more acceptable than the....

UK titty twist.
Thoughts?

[Arugula Latte]

16. Yes, over the years the traditional British reserve has meant that

the UK titty twist has fallen out of favor with all but the lower caste (the "twistables"). In some parts of Britain, however, "air" titty twists, or "twitties," are deemed appropriate.

17. The EU has done nothing to heal this rift it would seem.

[Arugula Latte]

20. Maybe Obama can act as a mediator to mend the titty rift, or "triftty."

27. I thought they were called Twitters

Tweets for short and sweeping the street in rhyming slang.

[MADem]

10. Awww, the photographer just missed the shot. He was reaching for her boob in pic 2!

[Kahuna]

12. Her demeanor is completely at ease with Pres. Obama. Unlike in

the photos with smirk.

[paparush]

14. 2nd Obama photo "looks" like he's poking her in the boob.

:-)

[polichick]

19. Like the rest of the world, she seems tremendously relieved!

[onehandle]

21. I really never need to see that shot of that ignoramus' action again.

Creeps.

[Phx_Dem]

23. Maybe he'll give her a wedgie later to make up for the oversight.

:D

[Cha]

24. Awesome photos of Prez Obama, Michelle, and

Andrea Merkel!

What in all the name that's proper was bush thinking AND did the corporatemediawhores go off on him for breaking common sense?

[NYC_SKP]

26. Oh, Oh, Oh! I have a caption for one of the pics...

"Mr. President, I've heard your 'stimulus package' is about this big!

Is that true?"

:P

[Kahuna]

28. Good one!!!

:rofl:

[JuniperLea]

29. And the look on his face supports your caption nicely:)

"Yes, yes. *blush* The size of my package has become a talking point worldwide it appears."

[mshasta]

[Politicub]

31. LOL - the Bush massage was just creepy

What a freak he was. So glad we have a real president now!

[texas1928]

32. I always think when I see Merkel smile.

She has the look that when she was younger, she was a very mischievous girl.

[SpookyCat]

34. OMG! Thank you for this thread!

I've been reading so many unhappy things, so this was very well timed!

And I can't even respond to everyone who made me literally LOL right now, cuz I'd be replying to like every single post! You guys are too damn funny! :rofl:

[Harry Monroe]

35. God that was creepy!!

What a f**king idiot!! Merkel know she's finally dealing with someone intelligent in the US Government.

[JuniperLea]

36. Now that Obama has restored grace and intelligence to the White House...

Those old, drunken escapades W took are all the more embarrassing... and frightening!
