God Save THE Queen

The media is still raving over the friendly confrontation between Queen Elizabeth II and Michelle Obama. While the two were greeting each other, the Queen placed her arms on the First Lady’s back and Michelle proceeded to do the same. Plenty of photographs captured this exchange, as some describe it as a mutual and spontaneous act of affection.

I think this was a case where the Queen was excited to chat with a cloured individual, other than her personal servants of course. Aging also tends to make the elderly a little delusional, even if you are the Queen. In Fact, she apparently thought that George Bush was still President, as she asked Michelle “What happened to the President’s whiter wife?”
