I'm trying to stay away from the corporate news, so I don't know. But you can bet your bottom dollar if the pics were geeky, we'd be seeing them.

1. Fox Noise is probably photo shopping Obama riding a dolphin
and being "elite", the way the news biz seems to work.

2. I haven't seen any yet. (Can't have the guy looking TOO good, now can they.
You are right, though. If he slipped in a silly looking way it'd be on the front page on Sunday.

4. They will probably pretend they don't exist.
Image is everything. This is why leaders through history had sculptures made of themselves controlling rearing horses, to project an image of supreme confidence and control over something seemingly more powerful and unruly.

Obama in the body surfing pic appears at ease, yet strong, fit, and in skillful control of the unpredictable, powerful surf.

5. They're afraid that McSame will need to counter in a pair of speedos surfing an oil slick. eeewl.
Since they don't have much to work with, best to leave it alone LOL

6. LOL
My eyes! Unfortunately, I'm blessed (cursed) with a good imagination, and I really, really don't want to go there.
