Aren’t the Obamas amazing, being able to smile for so long while all the strange people queue up to get their picture taken?

OMG, now the Muscats must be in a fix. Were those two the real Obamas, or were they cardboard cutouts?
Who are all those people? Why is there no sofa chat photo like heads of states have? I think Marisa Micallef got the best deal.
Joseph Muscat is not the head of state, that’s why.

Compare and contrast
Exact same pose, feet in exactly the same spot.
The Obamas are really wax effigies and this is really Madame Tussauds.
Muscat looks waxen himself in more ways than one.
They really do look like wax effigies.

No Muscats anywhere.
I was under the impression that the Obamas begged the great leader and his wife to take a picture with them, so that one day, they could tell their grandchildren that once they met this great, young, charismatic, visionary and energetic PM from an island in the Mediterranean that eliminated political division in the region.
Are you sure that the Obamas weren’t the ones that queued up to take a photo with Mr and Mrs Muscat?
This is the President’s schedule on Tuesday the 24th. Doesn’t look like he had much time for posing.

My God, those Americans are tall.
[Daphne – They are tall, yes, but not especially so. The Muscats are short. Michelle particularly so, given that even in high heels she’s shorter than her squat husband. The Obamas are long-limbed, which always makes people look taller than they really are.]
Barack Obama is not particularly tall. He’s only about 6 inches taller than Muscat.
Not wax effigies. The position of the fingers is different in each photo.
I thought that Muscat’s and Co. meeting with the Obamas was a meeting exclusively organized by our fast, closely, acquainted, newly appointed ambassador with Obama.
Mhux tad-dahk ukoll.
Joey looks like he caught the sun, he’s all pink and blotchy. Maybe they took the hop-on, hop-off open top tour of DC and he forgot to take the essential factor 30.
