Barack Obama's gift for the Queen: an iPod, your Majesty
Telegraph UK ^ | 4/1/09 | Toby Harnden

Posted on 04/01/2009 2:51:12 PM PDT by Nachum

Barack Obama met the Queen at Buckingham Palace today and gave her a gift of an iPod loaded with video footage and photographs of her 2007 United States visit to Richmond, Jamestown and Williamsburg in Virginia. In return, the Queen gave the President a silver framed signed photograph of herself and the Duke of Edinburgh - apparently a standard present for visiting dignitaries.

iPod completely useless in less than 10 years.

Silver framed picture of queen remains unchanged over the next 100 years and grows in value the whole time.

How very gracious regal of him. Will it someday be placed in a museum?

Just wait until she finds that iTunes will erase it when she connects it to a computer. LOL

Gift Her Majesty with 25 hip-hop CDs and she's yours for a fortnight.

I just read a glowing report on how beautifully dressed she was when she met the queen. I have looked better shopping at the Rescue Mission! Her clothes were childish or frumpy. Laura Bush had better taste. Good grief. How they fawned over this creature. YUCK.

My wife works in DC and she reports that among women Ms. First Lady and her width, clothing, and hairdos are a topic of much derision and laughter.

She adds that this is discussed by women of all ages and political persuasions, even the ones who like her husband.

And that’s the report from DC Gossip Central.

Angkor out.

The Obama must be trying to send some sort of message to their zombies, like "look at how hip I am" or "I'm so forward thinking" or "I am not going to be traditional" or "Screw protocol" because the person in charge of government protocol during visits with foreign dignitaries both domestic and abroad must be hidden in a broom closet.

This is embarrassing

This man is the man in blue from “Nostradamus” or maybe Edgar Cayce is right.

I haven’t been this embarrassed by a U.S. President since Jimmy Carter.
