Obama Draws Criticism for "Selfie" at Mandela Memorial

President Barack Obama campaign button.December 11, 2013 - Newspapers across the United States today featured pictures of President Barack Obama taking an apparent "selfie" with the Prime Minister of Denmark Helle Throning-Schmidt at Nelson Mandela's memorial service yesterday in South Africa.

The photos also showed a stern  Michelle Obama , as President Obama conversed with the attractive Danish Prime Minister.

A web site devoted to collecting and displaying  "selfies" taken at funerals , announced that the site would now be discontinued as apparently no one could ever top the President of the United States taking a "selfie" at a funeral related event.

In more bad news for Obama, a new poll out shows that 54% of Americans disapprove of the job the President is doing with only 43% approving.
