American Thinker "Is it nicotine gum? That is the most plausible explanation for this gross violation of propriety. Obama had a bad week in Europe, blundering badly with his toast to the Queen of England, humiliated before the world by speaking the magic line that cued the orchestra to play Britain's National Anthem, "God save the Queen," and blithely continuing to speak over the host country's most sacred anthem. Lech Walesa, a genuine Nobel laureate and hero to his people, humiliated him by refusing to meet him in Poland."
Obama's Gum-Chewing at G-20 Raises Eyebrows "But a website on chewing gum etiquette suggests that gum should not be chewed during professional meetings and should not be chewed by someone whose job requires a lot of talking."
And, I dare say, at worship services, funerals and any professional conference? But do you also remember when young people were taught to remove their hat when entering a home? Today you see people even wearing hats at a dinner table -when guests at the home of others yet.
Just because I'm anal doesn't mean courtesy isn't being lost in society.
