DieHardBrownsFan Posted June 7, 2014 Report Share Posted June 7, 2014 Twitter Chews Up Obama after Gum Gaffe at Solemn D-Day Ceremony by Top Right News on June 7, 2014 in 2016, Obama, Politics inShare by Jason DeWitt | Top Right News Yes, our Dear Leader, Barack Obama was actually chewing GUM at the 70th anniversary of the D-Day invasion in Normandy, France today. Unbelievable. And he did it repeatedly… As the BBC reported: Social media users tore into Barack Obama on Friday after the US president was seen chewing gum during solemn ceremonies to mark the 70th anniversary of the D-Day landings. People took to Twitter to denounce Obama’s “shameful” and “vulgar” chewing, with one user attacking him as a “lout.” “Obama do you want a Coke too while chewing gum while the Marseillaise is being played?” said toto_des_bois, referring to the French national anthem. “The Queen arrives and you have Obama chewing gum, #DDay70″ said diminou, another Twitter user. Other reactions: French Twitter was, to put it mildly, not happy. Translation is hardly required… Indeed. You don’t need to speak the language to pick up on the anger conveyed by “classe,” “merde,” and, of course, all caps. Stay classy, Mr. President.

The Cysko Kid Posted June 7, 2014 Report Share Posted June 7, 2014 It is quite disrespectful. If you don't see that woody maybe you'd appreciate someone opening and downing a beer during like, your grandma's funeral, then letting out a large belch. It's a similar act of disrespect.

LogicIsForSquares Posted June 7, 2014 Report Share Posted June 7, 2014 Oh god no. Oh God please no.... It is disrespectful. However, I know this will be turned into a huge gong show about how Obama is waging war on respect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calfoxwc Posted June 7, 2014 Report Share Posted June 7, 2014 I can't find it, but there was a video of Mccain and Obamao laying the wreath. Mccain gently laid his, and Obamao actually tossed it to the ground. I don't think Obamao is right in his mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Cysko Kid Posted June 11, 2014 Report Share Posted June 11, 2014 I still feel like the gum chewing is inappropriate for the gravity of the situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DieHardBrownsFan Posted June 11, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 11, 2014 Of course it is. A world leader should never chew gum in public, let alone at a memorial for D Day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've fortunately never experienced it, but I'm pretty sure this is what irreconcilable differences looks like in divorce proceedings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
