Oh my lord, was this really necessary? A photographer captured one giant face-palm of a photo op with Mitt Romney and a group of school kids. Romney is seen bending over -- and a little girl looks on with great astonishment, mouth wide open. Because of the angle it looks like she's staring at Romney's behind! The AP published it with just a generic caption saying that Romney was posing with school children. They neglected to add that he was crouching down to pose with the kids, and that the girl's surprise was at the announcement that he'd be posing with them. The AP has since apologized and people are up in arms in defense of Romney. But he's a public figure. What about this innocent girl? Shouldn't she be the one getting an apology?![]()
