If you haven't seen the video this "clipping" references you can see it here
The funniest moment..maybe in the whole history of Obama’s snafus..is when The Queen commands him “SET IT DOWN”..and he does so..and is obviously chastised..and angered.
For the first time in my adult life I’m embarrassed to be an American..
Watching the toast gives me the same uncomfortable feeling that I get when I’m in the audience watching a comedian bomb
It could be worse.
Maybe he could have said “I’m having a beer summit with the Queen after dinner.
But to speak during the anthem?
Unless I am wrong no one speak in any county while its anthem is played.
The doofus probably didn’t even know it was their national anthem; he thought they were providing him with American music to make the toast glorious.
I found a video and posted it on another thread of the South African head of state at a banquet toasting the queen...who got it right.
Her Majesty's a pretty nice girl,
but she doesn't have a lot to say.
Her Majesty's a pretty nice girl
but she changes from day to day.
I want to tell her that I love her a lot,
But I gotta get a bellyful of wine.
Her Majesty's a pretty nice girl.
Someday I'm going to make her mine, oh yeah,
someday I'm going to make her mine.
—Lennon & McCartney
Do you know if anyone is keeping a running list of his faux pas?
But he has his allies in the American Leftist Media that will continue to carry his polluted water.
