Here he is giving today's speech..from the Daily Beast
scroll down a bit to see today's speech
http://www.thedailybeast.com/
Here he is also on the front page of the Huffington Post..
You also need to scroll down some.4th or 5th one down below huge picture of Pukes..
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/
Top pic, he is standing behind flags..second pic, flags are gone
Why?
Bottom pic, rather unattractive pic of the President.
Often Post has the most unattractive or least photo friendly picturesof Obama
Why do you suppose that is??
Now if you hit the link.. 'If You Want To Give The Last Decade Another Try, Vote For Romney'..printed .above the picture..
it will take you to a story where the real picture is used, (in the political section)
and the flags are there..
But some just come and look for a while at the front page, and all they see is this awful picture of Obama, taken somewhere
else... What do you think?

(20,600 posts)But in some quarters, any political website that is either not full of praise for Obama or is critical of some of the admins policies is an unacceptable source. Sometimes it appears the only acceptable source in some quarters is whitehouse.gov, which is treated as the gospel.
The huffington post is mixed, some good and interesting articles, some stuff that is national enquirer worthy.

(38,421 posts)Almost all of Obama on the front page are generally not decent of him..but you are correct.
There are some very intersting articles there, some good writers who are honest and fair, and also,
you are correct about the National Enquirer comment.
Almost every day they have some kind of story that relates to some sexy pictures..
This has changed dramatically from the days when Huffington Post was owned by Huffington.
She sold out to AOL..for 300 million..if I recall..
