[Times of India] Agra: Obama is a humble man, he will not like anyone putting those protective covers on his shoes, US security personnel had told ASI and asked them to provide four velvet pairs in advance, for him and First Lady Michelle Obama.
No, the cotton will never do. The sequined RED velvet for our humble master please.
"Most Americans do not like others to carry their bags or help in such personal work. Obama could not possibly allow this colonial tradition. Moreover, there are automatic shoe cover dispensers installed at the Taj where you do not need to use your hand to wear them," said the official.
Glad to see the Secret Service finally coming around. |
All you can do on short notice? Alright then, a size 10.5 please. They will just have to do.
