Is there another reason why people are absolutely outraged that Obama puts his feet up on the desk, but all the other (white) Presidents have also done it and nothing has ever been said about it???

Wow! This from AP? Never thought I'd see the day..
But I have to ask.. Why now? Is the MSM trying to regain a little bit of credibility for the next person in line? Hm.. Call me cynical, but I think there is more to this than meets the eye..

I guess nobody clicks on links and then allows other posters to mislead them with comments. This is from Natural News which then links to Daily Caller.edit on 10-11-2013 by JBA2848 because: (no reason given)

Not a single person even hinted at race.
Way to play the race card.

Being a black president would apply if he was black. In fact, he is more Arab than black.

Your link doesn't work. I guess that makes my computer racist.
Why does it always have to be about race with you people? Why can't you see that some of us just don't like his policies?
Give it a rest.

While the foot on the desk might be disrespectful, I am more concerned with the symbolization of holding a gun in his right hand! If this is a staged photo then what exactly is the message being sent?

Yeah and did anyone stop to think after reading this, that this means the disrespectful foot on the desk shot was purposeful? Right in your face folks, right in your face....

You think Romney would be any different?

So Obama isn't as photogenic as he would like people to believe, and he's vain and self-conscious about it. He has to be filmed and photographed from a semi-profile perspective, preferably his left it seems, so that no one notices that from straight on he looks a lot like Alfred E. Newman.
Big ass ears! All he needs is a gold tooth in the front.
