    Obama wows England

    I found this to be absolutely hilarious. B. Hussein, Mr. Cool, Mr. Brilliant is giving a toast to the Queen of England, but the orchestra starts playing God Save the Queen and when he finishes his toast and raises his glass, NOBODY else does. The Queen gives him an awkward look and everyone else ignores him. He's just standing there with his arm raised looking dopey. To top it off, TOTUS (Teleprompter Of The United States) wasn't there so he had to stare at the table and read the toast off three by five cards.

    God Save the USA

    At least he didn't throw up on her.
    Liberals fail to recognize that modern conservatives are direct evidence of the failure of the public education system.

    It was hillarious. Talk about a Got-Cha moment. Making a toast--he holds up the glass--and several seconds later realises that the anthem is playing and no one else is holding up their glasses--the queen looks at him like he just came from another planet and he puts the glass down.

    Is this karma coming back to bite him for setting up Trump at the correspondence dinner?

    The band started too early.

    Despite anyones' sincere concerns, I am sure the Queen would appreciate not making an issue out of it.

    When I read stuff like this it makes me wonder why a person gets so bitter. What could possibly have gotten someone this angry and trivial. My best guess is that one day long ago his mother accidentally ironed the cats tail, and it was upsetting to all concerned.

    His staff underprepared for the thing. He's certainly no Anglophile and it doesn't seem like meeting the Queen is a big deal, and that probably extends to his staff. I can understand that somewhat. The whole Royal Family thing has me baffled. Just so much irrelevant window dressing. Even so, you expect a better showing from the President.

    The man is a complete embarrassment. The only people who don't realize that are those who worship at the man zipper, longing to gobble down whatever drips out next...

    Because Obama has been a complete embarrassment to this country since the time he took office.

    Oh my gosh! How can you say that? Our foreign policy is back on track, we are not the butt of jokes, nations are trusting us again, and even the Queen's band starts playing when he raises a glass. What could be better?

    (trying for a little levity here. Maybe break some of the rancor and start meaningful discussions.)

    Yeah, saying our foreign policy isn't a complete disaster, we're the butt of every country's jokes, and nations wouldn't trust us as far as they can throw us are great jokes.

    Almost as big a joke as the current POTUS.

    Really. For example? The effectiveness of Obama's decision to push the NATO countries on the Libyan issue? Has that been badly received (not counting Qaddafi's reaction)? The entire Arab Spring revolution that is going on? Relationships with Russia?

    Please give some examples of where our relations with another country have worsened? Besides Libya.
