"Is that true? Or, is that sarcasm?"

I don't know. Somebody is going to have to turn on CNN to see, but it won't be me.

Nope. If Michelle Obama is Jackie-O, then Rosie O Donnell is Playmate of the Year.

Is it common to get an oil-change in the presence of Her Majesty these days? Or what?

Let’s face it. She is not an attractive woman and has a personality to match. All this fawning over her must be mass hypnosis or liberal white guilt being taken to an absurd level. Jackie O is gyroscoping in her grave — it’s like favorably comparing a mule to a thoroughbred.

I get a general impression of the Obama’s not being fully aware and engaged as to who the Queen is, what she stands for, etc.... I think its beyond their grasp, historically speaking. They seem to be people of the moment and The Queen is “just another head of state or something or other”. To publicly present her Maj with an IPOD (imho) is not a cool move, perhaps they could have done that in private, you know, leave it on a dressing table with a card or something./s/
It just doesn’t seem dignified for one head of state to give Her Maj something Made in China .
It would have been a real hoot if the Othugo’s had given her the sheet music and lyrics to “The Star Spangled Banner”, now wouldn’t it?
This is a good example of the kind of people they are , lacking in depth,background and knowledge.

Big whoop. Bush descends from the Plantagenet dynasty (as do a lot of former presidents), and I’m his somethingth cousin on the same line.

Royal? Maybe royal embarrassment as the Obamas reveal their lack class and grace.

Go to the link below to see the video of the Obama woman as she pushes past Prince Phillip and wedges herself next to the Queen.

The Queen's face - and lost for words is priceless.

insiders say the queen and America’s queen bee will be fast friends.” The correspondent even compared Mrs. Obama to Princess Diana . . .

Uh, the Queen and Diana got along like cats and dogs. This article, like most press reports is full of ignorance and cluelessness.

Somehow or other, I just don't think that Queen Elizabeth and Princess Di got on all that well. I imagine that the relation beetween the Queen and the First Lady will be similarly cool.

Technically, shouldn’t have MO been to the left (our left, viewing the video) and Phillip to the Queen’s right (our video right)?

There will be no creating another 'Camelot' by the lying media! There are other avenues to get information these days, MSM idiots!

Bottom line: technically, she shouldn’t have walked in front of the prince in order to place herself next to the queen in this photo op.

I think he should have left her a dvd with all the 1-800- Dentist commercials
