Yes, this is definitely true.
I still disagree on the dvds. Of course the PotUS's behavior reflects the nation though, I wouldn't argue against that.
I'm not denying the fail of the visit. Obviously the visit... did not go as well as planned. I'm willing to give Obama the benefit of the doubt (until proven otherwise), but yes, fail did definitely occur. But the followup visit in the UK was very solid, from all I read. Lots of really great stories came out of that one.
That article is pretty brutal though, although I'm always wary of articles that don't name sources. For obvious reasons though, they're.... woefully common.
