1. No massages there, thank goodness
No international embarrassments there. It actually seems like she welcomes the attentions of this President, unlike those of that manchimp creature.

3. Great, just when those images had faded for me...
JK-but really, wasn't that an embarrassment? I was also thinking how she looked so relaxed with Obama, and looks like she wants to be around him. That last dude? Not so much.

5. How did I miss that?
She looks so disgusted. Bush was never taught how to act among his betters, was he?

11. It looks like, in the first picture, she expects to get another unwanted backrub, like the one Bush
gave her. And then in the second, he's all, "Oh, Frau Merkel, things are going to be OK here." And then the last one is all happily ever after.

12. Wot, no inappropriate touching in these pics?
I bet Merkel is glad not to have to deal with Bush any more.
