Presidential shenanigans at Nelson Mandela's funeral


When I first heard the reports on the Presidential shenanigans at Nelson Mandela's funeral, I completely disregarded them believing that our President would never act inappropriately at such a solemn affair.

However, after reading reports from credible outlets like ABC news, the Washington Times and others, and seeing posted pictures all over the internet, I now believe that he acted like a moon struck and giggly 13-year-old. Michelle was obviously mortified as we should all be. This was a funeral. He is the President. No wonder the world is laughing at us. I don't believe it is asking too much to expect our President to act like a world leader when he is on the world stage. After all, this was a "shot" seen round the world.
