Of course, there are corollaries to this. One must certainly touch the Queen if the monarch offers her hand (though you should return this not with a firm handshake but just a touch).

The QUEEN is not GOD for Christ sake.I was getting sick of CNN running the video of her touching the queen every few minutes last week.They did not even focus on the real news.Thank God for MSNBC.

I do agree the media has gone nuts, with all the protesting going on that day what they could be bothered about was "touching"

but i am pretty sure they were briefed and briefed about the protocol before seeing the Queen.
Next time she should be a bit more conscious and try to respect someone else lifestyle to avoid all the unneccessary drama!

The queen touched Michelle Obama first, so what?.After all the Queen is not so "Clean"to touch ,and people like the Pope, and Queen of England and various political leaders of various countries and some members of the clergy gather at the major Sabbats to invoke the malevolent one.

the media clearly has nothing to do
she touched the queesn, the queen touched her
as long as its not a rule set in the books, she could have kissed her

okay thats extreme but isnt it high time the media stopped foucing on non-news?

The Queen should be happy Michelle gave her a cuddle, most people would lose an arm for a chance to cuddle Michelle. Go Michelle, Go Michelle.
