I saw that earlier.....figured it was only a matter of time before it made it to 285Bound.....you never disappoint neptunechimney!
I often wonder when I see stuff like this....do we blame the president.....his staff.....the protocol officer in the UK, or whatever foreign country our president happens to be visiting? Americans just aren't used to all the pomp and circumstance that royalty surrounds itself with.....
It is embarrassing.....But, like someone else said earlier,....better than throwing up in her lap, or giving her a message at the dinner table. I'm so glad I'm not in public office, I would do horribly at state dinners. Sure I know what fork to use, and how to sit and to eat properly (my momma made sure of that) but the protocol is beyond what I would want to learn.
If Barry's teleprompter had been there he would have said what his staff told him to say... Yet another example of how far out of touch Barry is with the international community and what it takes to be the POTUS.
I can explain it to you but I can't understand it for you.

Lighten up.....this isn't WWIII starting, it does, however, seem to be a common failing in our presidents to have awkward moments
5 Incidents when presidents embarrassed themselves abroad.......I had forgotten some of these
1.George H.W. Bush Vomits On the Japanese Prime Minister (1992)
2.George W. Bush Crashes Into a Police Officer in Scotland, Sending the Officer to the Hospital (2005)
3.Gerald Ford Falls Down the Steps of Air Force One in Austria (1975)
4.Ronald Reagan Falls Asleep While Meeting with the Pope (1982)
5.Bill Clinton Caught Celebrating a Favorable Ruling in a Sexual Case Through His Hotel Window in Senegal (1998)
I shall await your comments on how Obama is worse than these guys.
He's hot.
Oh c'mon now we're not commenting on his looks. lol I'm sure that the queen will freeze relations with the US over this unprecedented breach of protocol. <not> At least it was a very complimentary toast.
With every gaffe Obama continues to make, he brings himself to the level of Bush, which just makes him a regular guy and not some genius intellectual that many were lead to believe. Or maybe he is really book smart but just has very little common sense.
The left is angry because they are now being judged by the content of their character and not by the color of their skin.
