This image of President Obama, which is going viral on the net and Twitter, is becoming a big hit with football (soccer) and sports fans arond the world in the last 24 hours.
It shows the reaction of both England's former captain David Beckham and President Barack Obama after England's keeper Rob Green made that horrible blunder against the U.S. in Saturdays, June 12, 2010 first round match in South Africa 2010.
What are your thoughts of Obama smiling in this picture?

FIFA's Football World Cup, South Africa 2010; the first World Cup in the African continent will be the biggest televised event in world history .
With 30 days left, here is the main wallpaper for the 19th FIFA Football World Cup - South Africa 2010 from Video Games Blogger. The tournament starts on June 11 and ends on July 11, 2010. The opening match is between the host country South Africa vs Mexico.
The World Cup is bigger than the Summer & Winter Olympics combined. NFL Superbowl, MLB World Series, NBA Finals, etc.....HA! They are all
minor leagues compare to football's World Cup. The World Cup is the
biggest mass media event on planet Earth, and it gets bigger &
bigger every four years. South Africa 2010
will be by far the biggest sports betting event in human history.
This
is the only event in the world that temporarily stops work in many
countries, stops wars, closes school & university classes,
closes hospital in Africa, closes down brothels in Asia, and murders
& suicides are committed in South America because of the
passion of world football!And for 30 days, June 11 - July 11,
2010, planet Earth will be engulf with Football's World Cup fever.
Like it or not.......
This video features a newly developed robotic cop patrolling the streets of Johannesburg, South Africa?
Well, not really.
This
is actually a specific corporate video created by Neill Blomkamp of The
Embassy Digital Effects Inc. for a fictional company named Tetra Vaal - shows a robot cop policing the streets of a Johannesburg township.
The
effects go beyond the extraordinary (even the robot’s relaxed-alert cop
posture is stunningly lifelike), and the combination of the
documentary-style footage and computer-generated images is convincing
enough that you might find yourself wondering if you were on vacation
during the announcement that robots are indeed now among us. A little
scary? Definitely. An amazing video? No question.
It is one of the best digital effects that I've seen in a long time.
Here is a stunningly beautiful picture-video done by a vlogger from Argentina named Marcos (aka: IBruit).
He has put spectacular images of many of the famous mountains from around the world on this video. There are many pictures of the great mountains of the United States, Asia, and Africa. Also, if you have traveled to South America, you will see the unbelievable images of the great mountains of the "Cordillera Blanca", the Andes Mountain range, and the "Patagonia"!
But what is the most stunning and beautiful thing about this video is that IBruit used the music of one of the greatest classical piano artist of all-time as a background setting - the Russian Rachmaninov! It is called Rachmaninov Piano Concerto #2.
If you look at this video and listen to the music, you will come to the conclusion that the Earth is Unique. Like the name of this blogsite -"La Tierra es unica......Tierra Unica"
IBruit calls his video - The Glory Of Mountains - La Gloria De Las Montañas!!!
Glorious Mountains to the music of Rachmaninov - Piano Concerto # 2 Pictures of the following mountains from around the world are in the video:
