Help! Looking for the O'Bama rose "jump-shot" at the 9/11 memorial the other day.

Can't seem to find a quality image online anywhere. It's on the front page of the Des Moines register today.

There’s something wrong with the image on her site if you try to use it in html code.

Plus the one on her site is a bit blurry.

"It wasn't that bad"

To take a page from the liberal playbook, it doesn't matter whether it was bad or not, it's the perception that counts. Keep repeating it enough and it becomes bad.

He tossed it like an under-handed baseball.
Not a lay-up at a Bball game.

At least he didn’t snap the stem over his knee before he threw it. :]

This can’t help the community organizer.

I agree.

If there's any difference...

McCain is probably just more accustomed to ceremony's like this (not an Obama slam, just an experience fact). In addition, that's likely the extent of what McCain could do physically.

and finally,

Barry O'S not stupid. He knew the eyes of the world were watching him yesterday. There's no way he intentionally showed disrespect.

It was worse. To be president you need to act like a president.

Not to mention the bigger issue in my opinion:

Shouldn’t his wife had been there?

Honestly, I am more offended at Obama's deliberately NOT shaking hands with the hard hat guys just prior to the rose throw (see 2nd video on Michelle Malkins site). He ducked behind Bloomberg and refused to even personally acknowledge them. Clearly, Obama has nothing but distain for anything related to Ground Zero.
