Reminds me of Bill Clinton!

U.S. President Barack Obama (C) and France’s President Nicolas Sarkozy (R) take their places with junior G8 delegates for a family photo at the G8 summit in L’Aquila, Italy, July 9, 2009.

Mr. President! Behave! Is this your new theme song?

Michelle must be out shopping for another $6,000 purse!

He’s not looking at skirts. He’s ogling a related area…butts. Those eyes are trained exclusively on that girl’s posterior..

Actually, this photo begs for a captioning contest. My gosh, what could M. Sarkozy be thinking? From this photo, I’m guessing, “I wonder if obama has seen “Indecent Proposal, non”?

First, the look on Sarkozy’s face is priceless.

Absolutely priceless….He’ll have some ’splainin to do when he gets home too.

Obie, on the other hand, will have to ’splain to this behemoth..uh..beauty why he couldn’t keep his eyes under control.

Well it’s hard to tell with a snapshot in time. Was his head moving at the time or was it staring? However it looks like on this occasion – looking at this shot – his eyes are closed.

@Mike
Michael Jackson was accused of sexually boys under the age of consent. Quite different from a photo of Obama turning his head and appearing to be looking at a 16yr old butt.

btw – what age is it okay to ‘objectify’ (sounds feminist to me) a person? Or check out their body with a quick glance? Apparently the age of consent in Italy is only 14! The Vatican is apparently 12! A lot lower the States in the US which goes as high as 18.

My guess is that this is about as “transparent” as this administration is ever going to get. And, from the look on Sarko’s face, I wonder if he isn’t thinking,…. “Typical American – no subtlety. He’s probably as untrainable as the rest of them. I’ll have to rethink taking him on as an apprentice…”

Lawdy, Mike. Lighten up here. How would the big Zero know she was 16? Even you didn’t mention it in your post since the press only identifies her as a “junior G* delegate”. Which, BTW BrianP, care to provide the link on where you ascertained she was who you say she was?

UPDATED: According to the NY Post, she was 17, and not identified as anyone’s daughter. END UPDATE

But pedophile? Big stretch, Mike.

Frankly, I’m with Aqua and a few others. Who would blame any red blooded male from taking a second look? Stunning from that angle. And it is possibly one of the only behavorioral examples I’ve seen out of the Eunich in Chief that is somewhat humanizing and identifiable with the common man.

I give him a pass… and perhaps an atta boy for having good taste. And Sarkozy really makes me laugh here!

She is a Junior Delegate, and is 17 years old. Each world leader had a Junior Delegate Rep that was photographed with them. I think it is creepy that Obama chose to oogle a young girl who was there to represent the Junior Delegation. She’s only a few years older than his daughter!

L’obiettivo del fotografo ha catturato un’immagine curiosa del G8: lo sguardo del presidente americano sembra incuriosito dal passaggio della delegata brasiliana allo Junior8, Mayara Rodrigues Tavares, 17 anni, di Rio de Janeiro. La foto sta facendo il giro del web ed è stata pubblicata anche da Tmz, Huffingtonpost e dal Drudge Report

Translation: The object of the photo has captured the imagination of the curious at G8. The american president is watching, seeming curious of the passing of the Brazilian Junior delegate, Mayara, 17 years old of Rio. The photo is going around the web, and has been publicized by TMZ….

Also a nice “gotcha”. And I certainly don’t want to rain on our parade, but just to “be clear”, his eyes aren’t looking at her posterior but at the name plate she’s putting before him for their group photo.

@Mike’s America:

Mike, some years ago I met someone who was a professional dancer (Martha Graham, Joffrey Ballet..) – very physically mature and attractive would be an understatement – who, oddly enough, also found me attractive. So we made a date to go out.

Over dinner, I found out that my date was 16. Mortified and disappointed, I politely ended the date.

Now, I hope you don’t think that my initial physical attraction would qualify me as a pedophile. I looked at it as a lesson that sometimes younger folk can look rather mature for their ages, and that I needed to find out sooner than I did.

So I agree with everything Mata said on this one. No doubt that girl’s dad has his hands full!

The ettiquette of butt gazing would dictate looking away if you knew it was the 16yo daughter of a friend or colleague. I don’t think this was either. And GaffaUK is prolly right about 100’s of frames being taken and this one being published. Matter’s not, he’s obviously busted. But I’m still giving him a pass. If it were me there, I would have looked and Sarkozy would be holding my hand back from smacking that booty.
Aye’s second photo is even better. Nothing we can say here is anything compared to what Michelle is going to do to him.

Nice try. He’s walking down the stairs so he has his eyes closed? Now that you mention it that suounds about right.

I wouldn’t care if this POS ogled the entire female population. I just object that he does it while president. There is such a thing as dignity and if a politician can’t control himself he needs to leave politics. What is it about democrats that they have no respect for the position or the oval office itself. Just look at Clinton’s shenagans. Obama is so arrogant that even knowing all cameras are on him he still pulls something like this.

Most heterosexual guys would look first and think about the age second, this does not equate to pedophilia. While I agree this is amusing we should not treat it as anything more than a laughable distraction.

The reasons to scrutinize His “O”lliness are legion and far, far more serious than this. Too often we take cheap shots at his wife who was not blessed with an appearance generally regarded as attractive, we should not give the left an excuse to point out that we can be as trivial as they are.

An interesting update from ABC News. What is most interesting about this post is the extent to which a mainstream network would go to protect the image of President Obama even from such an innocent charge of him checking out a girl’s butt.

So true, Mike. (regarding Pres. Bush).

One thing that seems to be amiss here in this thread is that we are talking about the President of The United States. One who is and should be held to a higher standard, and one who is married. So, no, it’s not “normal” for the POTUS to oggle a teenager, or any other woman other than his wife. Or a man, for that matter. (had to be said).

my two cents: isn’t it a bit (a lot) sexist to say that every man has no control over his sexual inclinations and would do the same thing as in this picture, and that’s o.k.? That’s what I’m hearing here anyway.

As for him being married – this isn’t a Bill Clinton scandal – dude, it was just a look. Sarkozy looked, too – and he even named his plane after his wife!

This is a fully dressed beautiful woman. Who are any of us to assume what Obama or Sarko aren’t “seeing” (if at all, being as I’m quite sure the pic is out of context), isn’t simply “beauty.” After all, that’s how God intended, i.e., Theology of the Body!

If you watch both the photo and the video at the same time they just do not coincide. Is it possible the video was taken at different times. Regardless, it seems some editing have been done on the video to cover up for Obama. Or is it possible she went pass Obama and up those stairs twice??

The photo clearly shows Obama looking up at the young girl’s butt; the other woman is standing right behind him and does not appear to be stepping down.

The video shows the young girl passing him as he helps out a woman step down the stairs. Not once does he look up. Did ABC edit the part where is looking up the young girl’s butt?

However, to get to the real issues lets talk of what Obama was doing in that meeting. He was spending our hard earned american money on other countries. He agreed to give away 3 billion dollars to other nations including Africa and those countries that hate us. He has already given Hamas 900 million dollars. I have lost count of how much money he has thrown to Kenya’s (his homeland) way.

Spending and throwing away our money is what really gets to me. He can continue to ogle all he wants just don’t spend my hard earned money. Besides this is not the first time this President had stared at a woman’s buttock while out there; it is just the first time the media has paid any mind to it.

Linda, Bush gave more money to Africa, to help in the battle against AIDS, than any other American President. I consider that something GOOD that he did. It was our money, then, too.

As much as I love the attention this post has garnered, I can’t see how we have 81+ comments on this and so much less attention to the more pressing issues I and my fellow contributors have posted in the last 24 hours.

Do none of you libs care that Obama is using your tax dollars to fund a political machine? Perhaps not.

Do you not care that Nancy Pelosi lied to the people of the United States when she accused the CIA of misleading Congress?

Is it no concern to you that Dems continue to vote for massive spending bills like the stimulus, cap and tax and soon health care that NONE OF THEM HAVE READ?

O.K. Sorry for the lecture. You may now continue to discuss the issue of Obama the horn dog/sleaze bag.

None of the things you mentioned are news. Seriously.

Note that I did not say they are unimportant–they certainly are important and defineitly more important than yet another demonstration of the racism, sexism, and arrogance we have in tghe person of our Candidate-for-Life.

What is news is that parts of the world outside the blogsphere and the world of us rightwingcranks or what ever we are being called this week is noticing.

The Main Stream Media is now reporting that their messiah is actually of the flesh, a mere mortal, one of us, only not quite so civilized.

There is no excuse for this and I will not give him a pass. Giving dems a pass when they do something wrong yet letting them bash us for for the same is partly what got us to where we are today.

@Cary: Someone above, I’ve lost track because of the number of comments, suggested we stick to the more substantive criticisms of Obama. To a point I agree. But yet, we post those all the time. Just look down at my post directly below this one where I discuss I post the fact that stimulus money is going to areas that supported Obama. That post got a handful of readers with only 17 comments. I’m not sure if the person suggesting we stick to more substantive issues commented on that post or not, but I would be willing to bet they did not.

People like fun posts like this more than the substantive stuff. So, I give them both.

I don’t know about anyone else, Mike, but I don’t always comment on everything I read here, because I don’t always have anything new to add. And just because I’m not bashing Obama with you, doesn’t mean I’m going to jump to his defense on every single issue (I wasn’t a “Bush basher” either) Or sometimes I just don’t have time to sit down and write something.

But you shouldn’t be discouraged by a lack of commenting, you’re still getting your point of view out there, and that’s why I visit in the first place.

I would hope that the folks who dropped in on a link to this post at Free Republic (which generated most of the traffic) would also click the link for the main page and read more. Not sure how many do that.

And I don’t expect comments from every reader on every post. I read lots of posts, and comments, where I don’t have anything to add.

@Mike’s America:”…there is no shame in us poking a little fun at Obama.”

Oh, I totally agree. I’m not saying DON’T. Before actually watching the ABC clip, I thought it was going to be a totally off the mark bit is really what I was getting at. I thought that they would totally *ahem* white wash even this small thing ;-)

“Do you not care that Nancy Pelosi lied to the people of the United States when she accused the CIA of misleading Congress?”

Mike, here is the REAL beauty of that. Either Nancy …

A: Lied about the CIA misleading her/congress
B: …is obstructing justice since the ciA would have broken the law.

Libs don’t like either choice and CHOOSE to stick their heads in the sand.

One or two things about the Bush-butt picture as compared to the Obama-butt pickture:

The female in the Bush picture is an adult. The one in the Obama is a child.

The female in the Bush picture, if I remember the accurately reported (don’t remember which blog that was), offered her butt for a “good luck” pat or something. It doesn’t matter what the child in the Obama picture was doing because she is a child.

In the Bush picture, the man (Mr. Bush) is standing there with a drink in his hand looking bemusedly at the camera. In the Obama picture, the man (Mr. Obama) is bent over like he was on his way in for a sniff.

And in other news, did you see what the Russians did in the hand-shake game?

Yup. And Bush, like a good Christian and astute politician, opted to pat her on the backside, and not the butt.

Yes obviously I get all my info from Sarah Palin on bikinibuys.com… ;)

As for your lame moral equivalency arguments – I’m happy to have agreement with this site never to use any such equivalents moral or otherwise with former Presidents IF the moderators & regulars do likewise. Can’t see that happening…how many times do you get the whine – they (MSM/left/whoever) wouldn’t let Bush get away with that. What’s sauce for the goose is sauce for the gander.

You were cornered when it was shown that Bush had his feet on the Oval desk – the same as Obama. Yet you didn’t give out the same complaints over Bush on that one…

As for child – she’s either 16 or 17 – depending on the reports you read. Above the age of consent in plenty of States in the US and certainly in Italy. If I saw a pretty 16 or 17 year old passing by I don’t think I would be a ‘pedo’ if I snuck a look. Of course you wouldn’t dream of doing such a thing….;)

I was just reading over this thread, literally in the process of laughing out loud, when I came across:

You sure Larry W. didn’t slip you some Kool Aid?

Reaction #1: flattered. We all, at some level, hope that we’ll make a difference to the world.

Reaction #2: Mike is kidding, certainly. He’s in on the joke. Certainly he realizes that God put butts on women, in large measure, to be noticed by men.

Reaction #3: No, he’s not kidding. This is one hard core dude.

Signed,

That Larry W (from good ole HB)

P.S. I’ve decided that my favorite GOP Senator is Lindsay Graham. I’ve been following him closely since the Clinton impeachment. He is a forthright, intelligent, and eminently fair politician, which is about all for which one could ask. I’d vote for him over, for example, the likes of John Kerry (although, at this point, I’d still vote for Obama — I’m truly opposed to the “stimulus,” along with being opposed to TARP, but I’d have been even more opposed to naked high income-bracket tax cuts as a stimulus, as had been proposed by the GOP).

@openid.aol.com/runnswim: Larry, if you love Lindsay so much then move to SC. Something tells me that even if you were his constituent, as I am, you would still vote for the Democrat.

However, I’ll be happy to note that since you fully endorse Lindsay, then I can cite all of his opinions which you will be compelled to agree with from now on/

Right?

@Mike,

No, I don’t agree with all of Lindsay’s positions, but I could live with him as my President. I don’t agree with many of the decisions of Roberts and Alito, either, but I think that they are outstanding SC justices.

I voted for Dana Rohrabacher (GOP) for Congress in my district, and he’s a much more strident conservative than is Lindsay. But Dana also has a strong libertarian streak. Anyway, I’m a fan of divided government. The best government we’ve had in my adult life was circa 1994-96. A truly golden era in governance.

My earliest candidate for President in the 2008 election was Mitt Romney. This was the former Mitt Romney, GOP Governor of Massachussetts, not the Sarah-Palin-without-a-skirt panderer, who decided to say anything it took to win GOP primaries. But (the former) Romney is a good example of the sort of Republican whom I admire — sadly, a vanishing breed.

I like Lindsay because he’s willing to concede, occasionally, that the other side may have a legitimate point. I think that he’s about as moderate as he can be, and still faithfully represent his South Carolina constituents. I think that, as President, he’d have a national constituency and might actually be able to be that elusive “uniter,” which so many of us non-polar voters hope to see elected, some day.

”The only way she can get derailed is if she performs poorly next week,” acknowledged Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., a Senate Judiciary Committee member. He said he was still undecided, but added, “I honestly think I could vote for her.”

http://www.miamiherald.com/news/nation/story/1131911.html

Having noted the above, I hardly consider an affirmative vote on Sotomayer to be a litmus test for President. I’m personally waiting to hear/read about all of Sotomayer’s confirmation hearings to decide whether or not she’s the one I’d like to see appointed to Souter’s seat.

Yeah, looks like voting for or against her could easily be a “litmus test” from where I sit.

But what does that have to do with a dirty old man oggling a child, and making a public fool out of himself and the office he represents?
