President Barack Obama is coming under criticism for offering a salute with a coffee cup in his raised hand.

#LatteSalute, as the gesture is being called on Twitter, was captured in a White House Instagram video recorded when he stepped off Marine One in New York City on his way to the United Nations.

A number of people fired off angry messages on Twitter about the #lattesalute.

Others responded with images showing that President George W. Bush once offered a less-than-graceful salute of his own.
