It’s a lesson that may start sinking in for world leaders, now that Barack Obama has played the same trick twice. Bryan Preston of PJ Media noticed that the Ego-in-Chief (he uses the less polite term “attention-whore-in-chief” but I won’t go there) has done it again. Who can forget this from 2011?

In a group photo tweeted out yesterday by the US Mission to NATO, Obama did it again:

Here is a close up provided by Preston:

The remedy is obvious. In all group photos from now on, there should be two empty spaces next to Obama. That would be a fitting commemoration of his status among world leaders. After all, his initials are B.O.
