In fairness, it's possible to get a stupid-looking or embarrassing photo of anyone.
Posted by: Tom Dickson-Hunt at June 22, 2010 7:54 PMThat's true, but we can still have fun with it.
Posted by: Stephen B at June 22, 2010 8:00 PMSo much shit comes out of that mouth, the fly is just positioning himself for the next meal...and boy, has he been eating well...
Posted by: Uncle Jefe at June 22, 2010 8:37 PMRemember last year when the Big O killed a fly on camera with his awesome karate moves and all the lefties wet their pants over how frikken cool he was?
Yeah, well...it's 12:01, Cinderella. Say goodnight

This is very true, but with some it is so much easier. 30+ years of full and PT work in photojournalism, have proved that serendipity works more harshly on the feckless.
"Serendipity works more harshly on the feckless."
I love that! An epigraph is born.
Waiter, there's a fly on our dupe.

Posted by: azlibertarian at June 23, 2010 7:32 AMWell, after all, he is skinny and African.
Posted by: gedaliya at June 23, 2010 8:10 AMThe fly wants to visit a dermatologist to get that disgusting growth removed.

Posted by: Gagdad Bob at June 23, 2010 9:02 AMGood to see that Helen Thomas' replacement is slightly more evolved.
Posted by: Gagdad Bob at June 23, 2010 9:04 AMLet me be clear: the bug stops here.
Posted by: Gagdad Bob at June 23, 2010 9:09 AMWeird. No matter how many times they fumigate Arafat's bed...
Posted by: Gagdad Bob at June 23, 2010 9:18 AMProof that Obama's base remains loyal.
Posted by: Gagdad Bob at June 23, 2010 9:53 AMIt just looks like he sprouted another one of his facial moles to me.
Posted by: Kim at June 23, 2010 11:32 AMHe looks so resigned in that photo.
"Go ahead, stay, see if I care."
Posted by: Kim at June 23, 2010 11:33 AMI'm amazed at his ability to still look smug while he's got a fly crawling on his lip.
Posted by: Cris at June 23, 2010 1:19 PMCris, He's got smug down really well - it's everything else he has trouble with.
Posted by: Cheezburgrrr at June 23, 2010 1:25 PMHe killed seven with one blow.

Posted by: David McKinnis at June 23, 2010 3:30 PM1. That's not a bug, it's a feature!
2. Someone forgot to de-bug the teleprompter?
3. He's just bitching about the latest buzz.
4. One Kenyan knows another.
5. Vladimir Putin ordered his agents to bug the Oval Orifice.
This could go on for pages!
