ROYALTY TOUCH IS GENUINE AND INNOCENT

MIISRAEL Bride · Thursday, April 2nd 2009 at 4:55PM · 391 views
Sometimes the news media goes too far in a big way to blow something as a gentle touch into a roaring volcano! Afterall, I found nothing at all wrong with something as sweet and warming as a light touch. The First Lady Obama touching the Queen in a most innocent fashion was ONLY just that. In fact, the media wants to say it's such a BIG NO! NO!. When there's kindness displayed and is openly received between two welcoming parties it's a practice of perfectly acceptable equitiquette.... and I believe that's fine by the queen as well. Lady Michelle displays quality charm and practiced its uses so graciously even before the queen.

I've not heard any complaints. I really think it was charming and nice. Who knows, Earl it's getting harder to be nice and show kindness these days....

Breaking News First Lady Obama breaks Royal Protocol... Breaking Breaking News...Lol
In my opinion it appears that the media is looking for more attention and for higher ratings as usual. What can we do?! Funny thing is when I watch BBC (British), CCB (Canadian), NTA (African) news stations it's not so much hype like the American news networks.

Yeah, and they love to always exploit small things! I mean... light touch is a simple gentle way to showing friendliness. Hype! The First Lady keeps her composure not matter what.

It is being made a big thing because, it is like some unspoken rule that no one touches the Queen, but the British Press is loving it and stating that it has been a long time since the Queen has felt so comfortable with someone in this way to embrace her (First Lady Obama) in this fashion.

It was a mutual touch, and if the Queen can touch in the same manner it seems she had no thought of it at all. No one touches the Queen, but perhaps it's what she really needed. The press can be so petty on little nothings. Duh!

So far I have not seen a media sound bite that shows who embraced who 'first'If our first Lady touched the Queen first then the Queen was responding in a, "Thanks, I like this bonding with you on a personal level.If the Queen touched first then the same response from her to the Queen.

I remember so well when the world went into shock because First Lady Nancy Regan did not curtsy before the Queen of England. Our then First Lady shut them up by saying,"Why should I have done this to her and she not to me, because after all WE WON THE Revolution (war) not them"!!!!So I took this as the same thing in relation to First Lady Obama.

Learning on Haardball on MSNBC today how the Queen's husband must remain two paces behind her at all time therefore this should clear up the complaint of where Mrs. Obama stood for that picture in front of the Prince.
