Winston’s eyes must have been burning a hole in Obozo’s twisted heart.
Obama is such a moron.
I suspect that Obama will attempt to placate the Brits by asking (as a replacement) for a bust of Neville Chamberlain.
OK - totally off topic - but why has the verb loan/loaned replaced the perfectly good English lend/lent? A loan was always a noun to me...
The bust of Churchill only served to remind Hussein of his own incompetence.

Greatness can sit in the presence of greatness, and feel comfortable amongst equals.
Goodness can sit in the presence of greatness, admire it, and aspire to better itself.
Mediocrity and incompetence must flee or banish greatness, out of fear that its inadequacies may be exposed.
Ask Harrison Bergeron ...
can’t have those bad examples around our new savior.
Obama heard the Churchill quote
“Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery”
and got very scared.

A bust of the former prime minister once voted the greatest Briton in history, which was loaned to George W Bush from the Government's art collection after the September 11 attacks, has now been formally handed back. The bronze by Sir Jacob Epstein, worth hundreds of thousands of pounds if it were ever sold on the open market, enjoyed pride of place in the Oval Office during President Bush's tenure. But when British officials offered to let Mr Obama to hang onto the bust... |
Was the bust a loan or a gift?
“...it was during Prime Minister Churchill’s tenure that the British suppressed a rebellion in Kenya by the Mau Mau tribe. Allegedly the President’s grandfather Hussein Onyango Obama was tortured by the British at that time.”
Hmmmm...hate to defend hussein, but I might not want to look at that bust everyday.
It’s simple. There’s only room for one “bust” in the Oval Office.
Fuhrer Obama had to make room for his bust of Che Guevera.
Churchill was the greatest Prime Minister England ever had (followed by Thatcher). Fuhrer Obama isn’t worthy of being in the same room as this statue.
What would a janitorial reject street agitator do with a bust of Churchill?
Churchill is one of the most revered leaders in the Commonwealth, we have many statues of him up here in Canada. Disgusting.
From Washington on the Atlantic to San Francisco on the Pacific an iron curtain has descended across the Continent. Behind that line lie all the capitals of the ancient states of middle America. All these famous cities and the populations around them lie in what I must call the Obama sphere, and all are subject, in one form or another, not only to Soviet influence but to a very high and in some cases increasing measure of control from Chicago.
In a great number of states, far from the Illinois frontier and throughout the country, Communist fifth columns are established and work in complete unity and absolute obedience to the directions they receive from the Communist center. The Communist parties or fifth columns constitute a growing challenge and peril to Christian civilization.
It is because I am sure that our fortunes are still in our own hands and that we hold the power to save the future, that I feel the duty to speak out now that I have the occasion and the opportunity to do so.
What they desire is the fruits of war and the indefinite expansion of their power and doctrines.
. From what I have seen of Obama and his henchmen, I am convinced that there is nothing they admire so much as strength, and there is nothing for which they have less respect than for weakness, especially military weakness.
Last time I saw it all coming and I cried aloud to my own fellow countrymen and to the world, but no one paid any attention. Up till the year 1933 or even 1935, Germany might have been saved from the awful fate which has overtaken her and we might all have been spared the miseries Hitler let loose upon mankind.
There never was a war in history easier to prevent by timely action than the one which has desolated such great areas of the globe. It could have been prevented, in my belief, without the firing of a single shot, and Germany might be powerful, prosperous and honored today; but no one would listen and one by one we were all sucked into the awful whirlpool.
We must not let it happen again.
If the population of the English-speaking Commonwealth be added to that of the United States, with all that such cooperation implies in the air, on the sea, all over the globe, and in science and in industry, and in moral force, there will be no quivering, precarious balance of power to offer its temptation to ambition or adventure. On the contrary there will be an overwhelming assurance of security.
Winston Churchill - March 5, 2009
We are lead by fools.
