Lighten up, Caribbean Star; stop being so judgemental about a light-hearted, upbeat positive greeting. This wasn't being done at a funeral dirge.

    of course the president needs to be a stick in the mud in order to lead this country properly.. right? </Sarcasm>

      It's called professionalism, and he represents all of us. How many of you would fist bump, or high five after and interview or meeting? Really.

      Next, he'll be doing the "Heil Obama" salute. Oh, wait. He just took away our First Amendment right to free speech. And idiots with their hands out still love him.
