So This is What Obama's Madam Tussauds Wax Sculpture Will Look Like (Wizbang)

Check out this compressed video of all the pictures Obama took with foreign dignitaries at the UN this week, and pay particular attention to his smile, head position, and posture. They don't change at all for the 130 photos that were taken. The only thing I could see shift from image to image was the thumb on his left hand. How did Obama stand and smile so consistently that everything about him, especially his facial expression, look frozen? On the one hand it's really amazing that he can do that for every single person who got his picture taken with him, but on the other hand, it's kind of freaky. I remember when my husband and I stood for our wedding photos. My smile muscles began to give out about three-quarters of the way through. But not this guy. He's a trooper. Or a wax sculpture.

Update: Bookworm wondered if this video was photoshopped but then checked the original photos from the State Department's Flickr page. They're real alright.

Thanks, Kim. I think this proves without a doubt that Obama is a socialist Muslim radical. So glad you've brought this to light.

Not so surprising is how the troll is also identical in all its expressions.

Nah, for a politician it's called 'stock in trade'. Just takes a lot of practice, and not be bothered by staring in the mirror, hour on hour. Actually very easy for a narcissist to do. Matter of fact, probably His favorite pastime, next to listening to re-runs of His own speeches.

It's amazing the things people find to do with their time. No this doesn't prove Barack is a socialist - just a plastic banana. Everything about him is choreographed and manufactured. Fake books, fake news conferences, fake smile, fake sincerity... the list goes on.

That's his Magnum pose ...

I wonder how many hours he had to practice in front of a mirror to be able to hit that pose everytime ...

Maybe he should have spent some of those hours learning economics or history ... I think we would all be better served if he was alittle less photogenic and alittle less ignorant ...
