President Obama Poses with Olympic Gymnast McKayla Maroney in the Oval Office
In this photograph, taken on November 15, 2012, President Barack Obama jokingly strikes a pose with Olympic gymnast McKayla Maroney while greeting members of the 2012 United States Olympic gymnastics teams in the Oval Office. The president and Olympic medalist imitate Maroney's "not impressed" expression, which had recently gained popularity as an Internet meme. At the 2012 Summer Olympic Games in London, Great Britain, McKayla earned a gold medal for the women's artistic team all-around competition, as well as a silver medal in the women's vault competition. In this photograph, Steve Penny, president of USA Gymnastics, and Olympic trampoline gymnast Savannah Vinsant can be seen laughing at left.
