Did Obama serve up a coffee cup-salute snafu to Marines?
President Obama stepped off Marine One and saluted Marines with a cup of coffee in his hand Tuesday on his way back from a United Nations talk on Climate Change and address on airstrikes in Syria.
The White House posted a video to its Instagram account. Press organizations such as ABC News reported it has been dubbed the "Latte Salute" and "Semper Latte" by the Washington Times.
One Daily Caller editor poked fun on Twitter saying, "Obama's coffee salute is especially outrageous to those who think he is going to war too latte."
Others, including one former secret service agent, offered opinions on social media.
Obama, as the Military Times points out, isn't the only president to have had a salute snafu situation. Former president George W. Bush was captured awkwardly saluting while holding his dog.
