The early bird doesn't...you know the rest

Quick. The Sun's home page usually changes after 6 a.m. Click on the photo of Obama on the Read Street widget on the Sun's home page and see what you get. Shame on me for wanting to see our shirtless president in greater detail.

Oh! I guess someone thinks it's inappropriate to try to oogle our prez. (As I resist the urge to say something inappropriate about what a hottie he is, though . . . )

Am I missing something? What is the big deal? The man is from Hawaii, after all!

It's still there now.. yum!

You must not have clicked on the photo itself. :-) EL

I don't want to point out a double standard, but I don't seem to remember all this fawning over those photos of a shirtless LBJ.

Hopefully this won't develop into a trend and we won't have to endure a shirtless Hugo Chavez. I'd hate to see what the UN Chronicle - Swimsuit Edition would look like...

To clarify for people who didn't see it early enough, when you clicked on the photo this morning, it took you to the gardening blog, not to the Presidential photo, almost like it was admonishing anyone who wanted to sneak a peek. That's why EL said to look fast. It was just a funny juxtaposition, what you were looking for vs. what you got.

if I had known it was going to be acceptable for our leaders to run around bare-chested, I would have voted for sarah palin.

Miss Elizabeth, I swear I did click, and got a wonderful eyeful of our Fearless Leader's bare chest. Maybe they had fixed it in the meantime?

Yes, I clicked, too, but got nothing. What did we miss?

This is what you missed.
