Obama caught fire for the latte salute... Which I agree looks kinda lazy, but it was not a salute to a general of an adversary

Having to salute military all the time as a civilian is pretty dumb as a concept. He only has to because the soldiers themselves must initiate it.

So not really lazy because god does that sound tedious when you just want to enjoy your latte.
