It's close, it's close, but it was putting an arm around her shoulder. The Queen did not seem at all offended. She responded by putting an arm around Mrs. Obama's waist. They found a moment of fellowship as two tired ladies oppressed by our shoes. Mrs. Obama later wrote. All right, who's up next? Oh, it's N90FU Bill.
