Your picture is pure BS that does not make any sense. You yourself are proof of it. You criticize the president every chance you get!
Yup. Manufacturing things to complain about.

But "Best" is a matter of opinion. My idea of "best" disagrees with your idea of "best". So which of us is correct? That's opinion, and might actually be incorrect. We disagree, we hold to our ideas passionately, and so we argue.
Well, others do. Now I just sit here and laugh at it all because it keeps my blood pressure down.

For someone alleged to have grown up in Asia, Barack Obama is repeatedly clueless about customs there.
It’s one thing if you’re a tourist. But as the president of the United States? More problematic. …
Eager to take advantage of such a photo opportunity before the world media, Obama leaned in for a little kiss, as a Chicago pol might at a South Side rally where women would squeal for a presidential peck. Obama is a big political kisser. He kisses females everywhere. Introduce him at a rally, you get a kiss. Hug too, probably. He knows the ladies love it.
But Asia ain’t Hyde Park. Public kissing, even between husband and wife, is rarely seen. Between a man and woman not married it’s downright outrageous, even scandalous. So Obama’s presumably affectionate but impolite, totally out of place smooch created an international moment more awkward than a first date.
Aung San Suu Kyi appeared to instinctively pull back from the male suddenly entering her personal space. But Obama’s arm was wrapping around her.
Turning her face away, she eventually consented stiffly to the foreigner placing his lips on her cheek to avoid a scene. She did not reciprocate, even with an air kiss. Or a gracious smile.
He did bow to her when she met him at the car. It was the polite two hands together in front bow of the region. I guess that and the kiss on the cheek disqualifies him, huh? Wonder what some people would do if he puked on someone?
OK, point made with funny picture. ...but if you want to get serious, recognize that this is PHOTOSHOPPED. Look at it closely, check out the President's left arm extended into space... heck ask Bob, he's the photo-pro. Or better yet, consider the source!

A few years ago, no one would have expected to see U.S. flags in the streets of Myanmar. But what the public appreciated the most was the kiss Obama gave to opposition leader Daw Aung San Suu Kyi. Although Myanmar remains a conservative country, almost everyone online did not think it as inappropriate and even praised it as a “royal kiss“. Thin Thin Tun describes[my] it as a gesture of friendship between the two countries

Obama's kiss of the Burmese leader during Monday's historic visit at her home in Yangon "has surprisingly elicited little or no comment in the global press thus far Ć¢?? quite unusual since public displays of affection represent a grave breach of custom in virtually all Asian countries," says the International Business Times.
Public kissing "is not at all the custom (in Burma, also known as Myanmar) as it is here in Hawaii, and (Suu Kyi's) backing away is almost instinctive for most Burmese women, even those brought up in or have lived a long time in the West," Michael Aung-Thwin, professor of Asian Studies at the University of Hawaii, told the publication.
Photo's too lowres for me to say on quick glance. Though the kiss seems real.
