Yes, it was very uncomfortable to watch. Camilla was sitting there stone-faced. I like Camilla and felt sorry for her that she had to sit next to him. Who else could have handled it as well as she did.

Why doesn’t it surprise me that you are willing to make excuses for O’Bozo?

Daffy

His general incompetence has me wondering about the value of a Hahvard education. No wonder his grades aren’t accessible. They’re embarassed too.

Let's face it. The PRES is IGNORANT.

You would think with all his TSARs he could find ONE that knows protocol.

Be careful, Donn is a card-carrying Brit who is a constitutional expert and will make you look silly if you challenge him on ANYTHING British!
Fair warning...

Simply the truth.

No-one in the UK cared. Now I could say everyone in the UK was mortified but that would be a lie.

One gains the impression his Ivy League credentials were bestowed by the virtue of his merely being “present”

or maybe not even that

“And now I propose a toast to the Queen,” President Obama began in London today, but only got as far as “To the vitality of the special relationship” before “God Save the Queen” cut him off.

No. Actually, he only got as far as "To Her Majesty, The Queen", before Britain's National Anthem began playing and which he walked all over by continuing his toast. The words, "To Her Majesty, The Queen", is the orchestra leader's cue to begin "God Save the Queen."

Nice try, though, Mediaite. But there's not enough lipstick in the world.

Our local ABC news showed this last night. It was so funny and the newscaster were laughing him.

The way the Queen kept looking at him was hysterical, too. The newscasters made sure they pointed that out, as well!

Very surprised the this came from ABC.

“Die.

No, seriously.

Die.”

Why, for telling the truth?

Conservatism is a philosophy, not a cult.

Ok. I take back my death wish. However, you do know that if any of this happened to a REPUBLICAN president, the US media would be DAILY on this topic for the next TWELVE MONTHS. EVERY article would begin with, "President Palin, who famously flubbed the toast to the Queen last May, said that...."

Well, it’s comforting to know the British public can be so sang-froid about protocol mess ups concerning the Queen...
As an American tax payer who pays BIG bucks to make sure my govt can hold it’s head up with dignity on the international stage, this is gross negligence...
