Crass? Stupid? Poor taste? All three?

It is perfectly possible that Mrs Obama's expression had nothing to do with what was going on outside her peripheral vision.

Photographers can catch someone half-way through a blink which automatically makes them look seriously drunk, and of caught like that coming out of a club, then two and two are waiting to be put together.

I think 'selfies' are a little odd, but that is probably an 'age' thing - I have had a mobile for seven years now, and I have yet to take a photograph of any description with it!

[ummmm]

Yes, Andy, they even got one where it made the Queen look like she was picking her nose in public...

It would have made a very nice photo, but I see that Cameron had to spoil it by sticking his nose in.

Even the Danish Prime Minister didn't want Cameron in the picture.

/// And the Independent's Kim Sengupta says the speech from Mr Obama - son of the African soil - "outclassed every other" and raised the stadium to its feet. ///

Now what nice words, but hang on a minute wasn't Mr Obama born in Honolulu, Hawaii?

[Mamyalynne]

I think that refers to his ancestry AOG, father born Kenya for example.

Auditioning for the next series of Borgan maybe for when they're out of office?
Still can't fathom the Frost reference though.
