An official statement from the US foreign policy chief paid tribute to the "Queen’s life and legacy,” despite the fact that the Monarch does not celebrate her official birthday until next weekend.
A spokesman for Mrs. Clinton attempted to make light of the gaffe.
"We were a week early," Philip Crowley joked to reporters in Washington. "It’s is better to give a greeting a week early than a week late.”
No mention if Obama sent along another iPod full of his speeches as a gift to the Queen.
This, after the Obama gift of movies in the wrong format to Gordon Brown and Michelle Obama putting her arm around the Queen (touching the Queen is an unthinkable etiquette breech), surely must have the British thinking how utterly unrefined the American leadership must be!
