McCain and Obama At Ground Zero

Here is a short video clip from yesterday’s memorial at Ground Zero. Observe the actions of Cindy and Sen. John McCain, in comparison with those of Sen. Barack Obama and NYC Mayor Michael Bloomberg:

Here, you can see that Cindy and John McCain knelt, and gently placed their roses on the memorial. In comparison, Obama and Bloomberg merely tossed their roses at  the memorial. While other bloggers have already jumped to dismiss this as a non-issue, I tend to disagree.

While I don’t believe that this was an intentional disrespectful maneuver on Obama’s part, it does seem to highlight Obama’s arrogance. Moreover, this highlights Obama’s inexperience… this is not how one behaves at a somber event that marks such a tragedy.
