Is this satire, or serious?
If it’s serious, myabe he should have given her a boxed set of movie sequels....
Obama looked like a schoolboy...he didn’t know what to do. He shook hands then tried to bow. God help us! We’ve put in a 3 stringer when we need a 1st string QB.
WOW. Tacky behavior to anyone, but especially the Head of State’s spouse.
No curtsy to the Queen from Shelly O, neither. “I won’t show respect to no cracker; I don’t care who she is.”
Prince Philip never dreamed he would see this day.
I was prepared to see this as a faux pas from nervousness but Michelle seems quite deliberately to disregard the Prince’s direction.
Almost looked like Shelly was going to ask the Prince to go get her a drink (isn’t he like those guys I got at the White House?).
This wasn't a faux paux on the part of our First Lady, nor was it unintended on the part of His Highness. It was a graceful indication of where he thought the First Lady should stand, next to the Queen.
Michelle knew where she wanted to stand and no short honkey was going to stand in her way.
Queenie wanted to stand next to the Queen, not the consort. I thought she was supposed to curtsy?
“... Obama giving the Queen an Ipod ...”
lets hope it new
You know, I don’t know the intricacies of curtseys to foreign royalty. I remember people having a fit because President Bush didn’t address the Pope as “Your Holiness” and someone pointed out that since Bush wasn’t Catholic, the rules didn’t apply. I wonder if curtseys are expected of subjects but not foreigners? Obviously I am no protocol expert.
clearly he does all of his gift shopping for Heads of State in the A/V department at Wal-Mart...
What class act for the empty suit figurehead POTUS.
I guess when he greets mini me from Iran he’ll give him his own special bail out money gift.
He wrapped up the damn cat!
“Philip, make sure they don’t steal anything” “You know they’re good at it”
The Obamas’ goal is the classless society. They’re doing their part by being classless.
And then, of course, Godzilla, our dainty first lady, picked up the Queen...and she hates that.
yikes!
