You saw 100% correctly. I was shocked when he just "tossed" the rose onto the memorial.
McCain & Cindy carefully laid the rose onto the water in the memorial.
I actually saw this during the televised ceremony and thought I saw something incorrectly – I am amazed it was actually published. Think you will see this on the evening news?
It is difficult to screw up an appearance at Ground Zero on September 11th. You have to be either completely oblivious or completely indifferent. It is a signal feat of idiocy.
And yet Barack Obama accomplished it.
John McCain and Obama visited Ground Zero together. Obama and McCain entered the site. But while McCain took the time to shake hands with uniformed firefighters and a construction worker with an American flag helmet, Obama ignored them and stood around.
But he wasn’t done yet. Both McCain and Obama brought roses to place on the makeshift 9/11 memorial. Obama casually tossed his rose on the memorial, looking somewhat like Don Barzini tossing a rose on Don Corleone’s grave near the end of Godfather I. McCain and his wife, by contrast, approached the memorial gingerly, then placed the roses with care on the memorial. In case you were wondering, Michelle Obama was back in Chicago tending to the children – she somehow has time to accompany Barack to the DNC, but not to Ground Zero on September 11th

Oh my gracious, this is so sad.
I couldn't see your pic that you posted, but I assume it is the same one as on the site?
Thanks for sharing. I hope everyone else takes the time to view this.

Hello Sandy,It seems Obama doesn't care about much, other than winning. I'm surprised that he even went there.
