Dunno much about Royal protocol, but living here in Canada one thing we do know is you don't mess with 'God Save the Queen.'
People defending Obama's unfortunate and uncomfortable mishap and deflecting it on a pompous monarch are missing the point and are in need of a British history lesson.
Again, it's easier for Canadians to grasp because we remain part of the Commonwealth and so are familiar with Royal protocols. It's irrelevant if we think it's "old." It just is. Americans built a Republic that overthrew the monarchy so there's less of an interest in going with that line.
Still, shouldn't the President of the United States be somewhat aware of this sort of stuff? Or at least informed by staffers? Curious.
I kept waiting for the NCAA bracket to come up.
