Is that the "Rent is too damned high" party leader in front of the President?
Definitely Bill Russell in front of the Danish chick.
QuoteTelegraph writer Iain Martin said the photo was uncouth and not worthy of good English manners.
"In all manner of jobs and professions are people who would not behave like Obama and Cameron did today on work time, partly because they just wouldn't. And partly because they know that they might get fired for tweeting a grinning selfie from inside the recently-departed CEO's memorial service," he wrote.
This is more like the CEO and CFO acting up at a service for a regional branch manager.

The guy in front of Obama is clearly Will.i.am from the year 2040.

He looks a helluvalot like Bill. If anyone here would know, it's me. His daughter tried to rape me.

I thought I had already told this story. Bill Russell's daughter roomed with a chick friend of mine in grad school. I went to her birthday party, where she was blitzed, and she tried to feel me up in the bar.
Obama knows he is getting fired in a few years. He can act however he wants.

Aww... I thought you were making a reference to when George Stephanopolous mistook Bill Russell for Morgan Freeman at Obama's inauguration.

Aside from being old, black, and having a beard, the guy doesn't look at all like Bill Russell.
Funny pics! Everyone is so somber but Pres Obama and the Danish PM are yukking it up. But I love how after a while Michelle is seated between them both. :D
Of course she looks pissed off, she is a wife. It is what they do.

His beard color and style are somewhat reminiscent of the "rent is too damned high" dude. I don't see Bill Russell though.
Pretty funny. I imagine she was more pissed at the flirting than the joking and taking "selfies" while at a memorial. Neither are very presidential.

At that moment. Every time they showed to the heads of government and state enclosure I was reminded of the old Irish saying that a funeral's a great place to do business.
For the rest it was in a huge football stadium, pissing down with rain. They had to turn off the big screens after the crowd booed every time the camera showed Jacob Zuma. So even if there would have been solemn moments they were kind of stymied by the crowd not being able to see anything. Instead there was a constant background noise and dancing (some behind the podium) with occasional cheers and boos for the different speakers. And it went on for a very long time.
Is she the hottest PM/President in the wold?

Hmm. Still, as POTUS you gotta be the example.
It's vaguely reminiscent of Bill Clinton walking in to the Ron Brown memorial, except that Bill knew how to shift gears when he saw the cameras.

She looks like that chick from Troy. Or was it Sparta?
Something about a national treasure too.
Or a scheme to kill Hitler at a French theater.
Fair enough. But it was a four hour memorial service - Zuma's speech lasted a good 30 minutes (and this was the 'brief' version) and was a history of the ANC and Mandela. I think we should try and remember that politicians are still people :P
Obama's not the only one...
QuoteNor was former President George W. Bush immune from the presumption of leering as he spoke to Princess Letizia of Spain, a journalist before her marriage to Prince Felipe.

It must be easy as shit for Bishop Tutu to scratch his balls in those robes any time he wants. Lucky bastard.
They and the UK PM were taking selfies. They really should all have been driving one of their limos if they're going to do that stuff. Such lightweights. ;)

FLOTUS does suffer from BRFS tho.
The Danish PM is married to the son of former Labour leader Neil Kinnock. Bet that makes for some interesting dinner parties.

Oi. Stupid paparazzi. The Obama pics are tailor-made for the headline, but the shot of Dubya doesn't exactly make me think of "flirting." If anything, it looks like he told a "Chinese guy, and Irish guy, and a Polish guy walk into a bar" kind of joke.

By all accounts, he's a man who looked hotter with hair, but at least he's not a ginge like his dad.

I like Cameron's response that it was right in Mandela's spirit that he should accept a photo request from a member of the Kinnock family.
