The more I look at
this, the more I'm astounded by the shallowness of Obama's knowledge
and understanding of anything to do with western
culture. It is possible, even probable, that we Americans are
were unaware that the Brit national anthem is played after each toast
to the queen, and that one does not talk over it. The reason we don't
know that is that never before has anyAmerican important enough to
toast the Queen in her presence been so blissfully unschooled about the
protocol and customs of the situation. The Won later offered this
excuse: “I thought that it was like,
it was like out of the movies when the soundtrack kinda comes in.”
As telling as all this is about our scripted leader without a script,
his gum
chewing performance yesterday at the Joplin tribute reeks of the
innate disrespect he has for common decency. Rest assured,
however; this man knows to never wipe his ass with the fingers on his
right hand. Ahem.

Good gravy, I can't recall ever seeing an adult politician chewing gum in public, not even nicotine gum. You just don't risk being commented on or recorded doing that.

That's just too painful to watch.
ReplyDeleteI find it very interesting in light of Teh iWon's myriad diplomatic mis-steps that the WH Chief of Protocol, who is the person charged with ensuring such things do not happen, is a committed Clintonista named Capricia Penavic Marshall who was previously one of Hildy's inner circle.
ReplyDeleteThe Hildabeest HAS to be snickering every time Obama trips in front of the foreign press. 3am phone call? He can't even handle a 9pm toast to the Queen! Badabing!

ReplyDeleteWell, that puts him ahead of me then...
If you are going to toast someone, you should also take a drink. He fails in so many ways to be a man.
ReplyDeleteAre we sure it was gum he was chewing? Perhaps The First Wookie wasn't able to finish all of her cud.

His po-lite is po-like.
Yep, Anon, I was gonna jump on captain 0 for not drinking to the Queen, but neither did the Queen! Ha, She at least knows what she is doing.

Ok, post surgery here so I'm a bit out of it... What was supposed to happen in that clip if numnuts had not blown it?
ReplyDeleteyou toast and then the British national anthem plays then you raise your glass. You don't talk over the music.
ReplyDeleteLovely how he cant do it with out a telprompter and keeps looking down. Can't do anything from the heart because he doesn't have one.
