A picture of Francois Hollande looking less than statesmanlike caused a stir today, after picture

Geert Wilders seemingly picking his nose with a ballpoint pen or George Bush being upstaged by a
turkey, there are plenty of other mortifying examples to enjoy. John Crace imagines what they
were thinking.
