President Obama and the First Lady are unaware of the ever-present ‘Kiss Cam’ at Team USA’s win

(REUTERS/Jonathan Ernst)It's fair to say that President Barack Obama, while sitting next to First Lady Michelle Obama, wasmore interested in his wife at the time the Kiss Cam found those two on the scoreboard during Monday night's Team USA Men Basketball exhibition match against Brazil. And, unfortunately for the POTUS, he whiffed as a result It's only awkward if you know it's happening. Because the couple wasn't actually watching the scoreboard at the time, their response is just another instance of the President and First Lady acting as if they know just about every eye in the building is on them (as it's been since, say, 2004 or so), but not knowing that EVERY eye plus a TV audience was on them. Too much court awareness, President Obama, and not enough scoreboard novelty awareness.

Later, in the fourth quarter of Team USA's 80-69's comeback win, the President was afforded a second chance on the Kiss Cam and did what came naturally with the First Lady. Naturally to him, at least, because my natural response would be to bound out of my seat and yell at the camera operator about how my affection toward my better half WAS NOT TO BE PUT ON DISPLAY FOR YOU MOUTH-BREATHERS before storming off back to my giant paid-for mansion where cooks can make any meal I can think of for me at all hours based off a single call from a landline phone that probably only has three buttons on it. Also, the White House has a helipad.

The President just chose to kiss his wife. Which is pretty cool, I guess.
