The AP's original caption said that he was posing for pictures with schoolchildren.

The wire service later updated its caption, making clear that the girl was reacting to Romney's decision to pose for a picture with her and her classmates.[/quote] [quote=Conservatives][URL="http://abcnews.go.com/blogs/politics/2012/10/romney-pulls-a-u-ey-to-drop-by-elementary-school/"]Emily Friedman of ABC News[/URL] reported Monday that “Mitt Romney ordered his motorcade to make an abrupt U-turn in rural Virginia today, after zipping by a group of elementary school students waving in the front yard of the school, so he could go back and meet them.” ABC's video shows thrilled grade-schoolers in Fairfield, Virginia. But no nice move goes unpunished by the press. Check out the AP picture distributed across the country. It's unbelievable. It honestly looks like a little girl is gaping at Romney from behind. This accompanied a snippy AP story by Lynn Elber on how Romney couldn't find time to take questions from kids for a Nickelodeon special.[/quote]

I like how the first reaction is to believe it's a liberal conspiracy from the AP. I can believe someone thinking MSNBC did it on purpose (even though they probably would not) and this kind of seems like something the Huffington Post might possibly do (let's be honest, that website is only one step removed from Fox News in that they have some level of QA in their regurgitated partisan opinion pieces), but the AP absolutely does not have an agenda.

[QUOTE=Mrglitch2000;37997087]"Ooh look! A penny!"[/QUOTE] How much you want to bet Romney took it from her after?
No surprise.
She's looking down at his stylish flip flops.
Unflattering? I'd be fairly flattered if the media started insinuating that I had a sweet ass.
I don't get it, she isn't even looking in that direction. It's a quick giggle but to apologize for something like this is [I]fucking retarded oh my god I hate people[/I]

You can tell from the angles that his ass is not the object of her adoration. She is clearly looking down at a harsher angle than would be possible if she were staring at his ass.
