Awkward Moment During Obama Toast to Queen
May 24, 2011 5:32 PM
The president and the orchestra at Buckingham Palace this evening were a bit out of synch.
When the president toasted the Queen the orchestra misunderstood a pause and what seemed to be a cue from the president for “God Save the Queen” to begin playing.
“Ladies and gentlemen please stand with me and raise your glasses as I propose a toast,” the president said, putting down his note cards and grabbing his glass. “To her majesty the Queen.”
The president paused, the guests stood, and the orchestra prepared to play.
But the president wasn’t done speaking.
“The vitality –“ the president said before the orchestra began.
Then the familiar tune – you might know it better as “My Country ‘Tis of Thee” – started up.
The president kept going: “ -- of the special relationship between our peoples and for the words of Shakespeare to this blessed plot, this earth, this realm, this England,” the president said as the awkward moment played out.
The Queen looked ahead as the UK anthem played.
“To the Queen,” the president finally said.
He lifted his glass to her, she smiled a bit uncomfortably.
But because the song was playing, no one drank from his or her glass, including the president, who put his glass down on the table.

Notice how the story is written to make it seem like everyone else is at fault except Jugear jesus.
Everyday is a Bad Day and an Embaressment for America because this Moron stole the Most Honored Office in AMERICA!! and Obama is a Total Fraud, Liar, and Muslim Terrorist! who is trying with all of his Evil Bile to destroy America and Western Culture amd to Make ISLAM the Demented Reeligion and Rule of the World!
Hey, he can’t focus on jobs right now. His number one task was getting Osama and now that’s been accomplished, he’s got to draw up a new list.
And near the top of that list is visiting the poor people of America’s heartland who suffered tornado damage this week. He’ll be rushing back after the weekend just because this means so much to him...
I think we have a winner!
Apparently, he doesn’t know what year it is, either. If the orchestra started, he should have shut up.
What a jerk!
He was fumbling with his cheat sheets. If he’d had UK compatible teleprompters, none of this would ever have happened.
Well, the orchestra figured out one way to stop Obama from speaking. I bet the Queen was actually very glad.
As Mammy said about Rhett and Scarlett
“Just mules in horse harness.”
That would be racist....
Oh my it seems Mr. Obama is off his trolley today.
Its not just him, ALL socialist marxist liberals are idiots.
just listen to the drunk randi rhodes for 5 minutes if you can
LOL
I know... but people are catching on. No place to hide for the Erkel! (I’m still wiping the tears away... just picturing this clown) heh..
Gads, what an ass (as in donkey) he is.
The conductor apparently didn't have a teleprompter...
He doesnt stop for the American national Anthem either
God save our gracious queen
Long live our noble queen
God save the queen
Send her victorious
Happy and glorious
Long to reign over us
God save the queen
HEY !!! Barry !!!
Next time you hear that music and song
Put down the glass and shut up
What ???
They are kicking you and MIchelle MarBelle out of Jolly Olde England ???
You were lucky you didnt get the Tower

7. It is heroic to kill a terrorist.

I have now passed Modern Ethics: 911, as taught by Professor Obama
