The fondness that former President Barack Obama had for Queen Elizabeth II, and vice versa, was the stuff of political legend. The former president and the late monarch first met in 2009. According to royal author, Tom Quinn, the encounter resulted in the queen developing "a soft spot for Americans ... she completely fell in love with [him], so much so that she has frequently asked her courtiers if they could arrange for him to come to Britain now he is no longer president," per Insider.
Following the heartbreaking news of Queen Elizabeth's death, the former president penned an eloquent and touching personal tribute to Her Majesty, which he shared on social media. Obama wrote on Twitter: "From the day of her coronation ... Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II has captivated the world. Today, Michelle and I join so many others who are celebrating her life and mourning her passing."
Obama went on to add, "Michelle and I were lucky enough to come to know Her Majesty, and she meant a great deal to us. Back when we were just beginning to navigate life as President and First Lady, she welcomed us to the world stage with open arms and extraordinary generosity." The Hawaii native shared further sentiments, stating, "Time and again, we were struck by her warmth, the way she put people at ease, and how she brought her considerable humor and charm to moments of great pomp and circumstance."

Barack has looked extraterrestrial as of late. And he acts silly in public.
His spouse always acts silly as well. It’s like they are home-free. They are just too too happy.
The queen had ultimate class.
Dorkbama the Muslim quota boy had none.
The queen had intelligence.
Dorkbama the Muslim quota boy had none.
The queen had morals.
Dorkbama the Muslim quota boy had none.
I’ll believe that the queen respected that lying do-nothing right after I believe that the FBI is honest.
Obama, the half Don Knox (BarneyFife) of presidents.
The most destructive president, and he has a lot of competition from “senile old Joe”.
Oh dang…I had forgotten about the lame iPod gift. LOL {cringe}
I didn’t read this article (don’t feel like barfing) but I noticed on Twitter there was a big thread about how the Queen hated Trump and that she “threw him shade” by wearing a pin that zero had given her, during her meeting with Trump. They also posted lots of candid pics of the Queen with Trump where she was making sour faces (of course anyone could come up with those pics of the Queen meeting with anyone). To the insane libs, the Queen smiled and laughed and was mesmerized the entire time she was in the presence of zero and Big Mike. lol. They couldn’t imagine that the Queen would wear a pin given by one US president (zero/vomit) to meet another US president, POTUS Trump, thinking that would honor the United States (after all, zero didn’t pay for the pin we did LOL).
Insanity. But I repeat myself.
Obama is only a creep doing his own blasphemous tribute…. Will talk global warming in the name of the Queen and say she was really a dike, there.
I’d laugh if all you see there was DJT and W...
Prince Andrew begged Queen Elizabeth to restore his royal duties before she died, report claims
An insider told the entertainment news outlet that Prince Andrew was pleading with Queen Elizabeth to have his old royal duties restored after being stripped of them due to his alleged involvement in the sex scandal of late paedophile pal Jeffrey Epstein.
However, the idea of welcoming Prince Andrew back to the royal fold allegedly did not sit well with Queen Elizabeth and King Charles. The senior royals reportedly rejected the Duke of York's comeback attempt fearing that he would destroy the monarchy.
talk about your cold shoulder
Sounds like they are talking total bollocks. Trump himself said that the Queen enjoyed conversing with him for hours beyond what was usual.
One of the Queen’s particular talents was making people feel like they were the most special person in the room, and she would never have let on whether she liked or disliked a president of an ally, because she would have been failing her job if she did something as crass and inept as that.
Americans are are not subjects to a crown. It is an insult to our nation to bow or make obesance to a foreign head of state. The appropriate gesture for us is to nod in acknowledgment and offer shake their hand.
It’s encounters like those that put all of the queen’s ingrained dignity, class, and decorum to the max test of strength and endurance.
Joebama the racist Muslim
Does anyone really believe this 💩?
Don Knotts.
I can say this for Obama, at least he penned his own condolence statement.
Like he penned his book?
Let it be known here and throughout the rational world that you did provide ample barf alert.
O’s dad was imprisoned by the brits.
