Attitude is Everything

Does this photo of President Obama in the Oval Office convey anything to you about his attitude?

Would you speak with the Chief of Staff, your Chief Economics Adviser and your Senior Adviser with your feet up on the Resolute Desk - a gift from Queen Victoria to President Rutherford B. Hayes in 1880?

We should inundate the White House with emails. Remind him that he should ot act as if he were not born in a barn and to keep his feet off of our furniture. He should be reverent in office as the Leader of the Free World. As President of the United States he is to continue the honor, and show simple decency just as our founding fathers who have been granted the honor to hold this position.

While this posture is disrespectful in any culture, it is absolutely never done in any executive setting. Further, in over half of the cultures of the world, it is recognized not only as disrespectful, but as an extreme insult. He appears to think of himself as a king - rather than as a servant of the people, humbly occupying our White House for his term in office
