Barack Obama joins Open Government Partnership for group photo Rich Shulman writes

I don't know much about diplomatic protocols, but I would guess that waving during the group photo is something to avoid.

It isn’t protocol.

It’s called a lack of dignity and a complete and utter cluelessness.

This is a photo for history not the sophomore class of 2011 of Podunk High in Outer Chicago.

Just talked NY and the reception he is being given is stoney.

The world has his number and the number of his admin and it is ZERO.

Look at the woman to the upper left of him and the guy directly on the right. They are both looking at him with WTF? faces.

It’s real, you can go to Getty and see the file photo yourself.

Just a quick, unrelated question. These are all leaders of Nations, so who it the blond, second from the right on the top row?

It’s not a group photo. It’s a photo of The One with some “stuff” in the background.

Apparently the gentleman who got blocked by his hand is the leader of Mongolia.

You can express your condolences to him on our rude President here:

Unfreaking-believable. . .twenty or more people in this pict and Obama imagines. It is ALL about him.

Pity the man behind Obama's hand - he may as well not shown up.

If anyone does not yet know what the embodiment of pathological narcissism looks like ; just stare at this pic for a while. The 'man-in- the-middle' says it all. . .
