7. CNN just now had a British journalist/writer who has been covering
the roytal family for years. To start,the CNN anchor (a woman with long brown hair) said that some have reported that the Queen made the first move, but Christianne Amanpour INSISTED that Michelle touched the queen first! The royal writer/journalist said that Buckingham Palace has confirmed that the Queen "made move on Michelle," not the other way around. He went on to say that Michelle breached no protocol because the rules have relaxed greatly over the past 10-20 years, and the Queen was smiling and seemed to thoroughly enjoy the embrace. How the hell would Christianne Amanpour know anyway? Was she there? And when is she ever right about anything?

Some idiots on my local radio station said this morning that "Michelle rushed in ahead of the President and grabbed the Queen in a big bear hug." Jesus, it's not that hard to get the straight scoop on something that is so public. But wingnuts don't care about the facts, they enjoy being liars and jerks.
