New to the oval office.
As they’d say in Jolly Olde - what a stupid git!
still do not understand way the Brits are upset. They got the president they wanted.
A total lack of experience on his part, in the “greater politics” of this nation. Maybe he knows the politics of the streets and of Chicago corruption, but that doesn’t play well with other countries...
This total lack of experience should be a campaign issue for the next election and how he’s botched several different things.
And also, remember... “It’s the economy, stupid!”
What percent of Brits wanted Obama in the first place. I'll wager a high number.
Why would they report it, chessplayer? He is their Messiah.
If I’m not mistaken, he also gave back a bust of Churchill what was in the White House. When the Brits said to keep it, he said no thanks and returned it anyway.
**So, what did President Obama give the British PM? 25 movies on DVD. Yeah, that’s it. Brown gives a symbolic gift like the pen holder fashioned from a famous British warship and Obama responds by sending a staffer to WalMart to pick up a few quick movies.
How thoughtful. Or not.
And I’m not the only one to scoff at this thoughtless gift. The entire British press is up in arms. Many in Britain are seeing this as entirely gauche and indicative of the low esteem in which the Obama’s hold England.**
GWB’s starting to look like a superstar, even in the Brits minds. Just watch.
Why does the U.S. media keep our President’s missteps hidden in the wood... wrong medafore. When will the American people get to hear the jig is.... oops. I mean where is the boon Obama predicted....darn. I find it kind of spooky that ....
Oh never mind.
It’s not being reported because even the most brain dead 0bama supporters would think a 25 DVD giftbox is a cheesy, classless gift.
Any idiot can see 0bama should have given them a set of 20” rims. Now that would be something.
I listened today to “Wait, Wait, Don’t Tell Me.” on NPR and that was one of the questions.
No class and a big ass (applies to both)
New to the oval office.
Isn't there a State Dept. division of Protocol for State visits
to advise the White House on diplomatic protocol ?
I think Gordon Brown’s second gift was absolutely INSPIRED!
The 7 volume biography of Winston Churchill...
After the Newsbusters article noted the Brits were (naturally) offended that one “President” Hussein’s first acts was to return the bust of Winston Churchill which has been in the Oval Office for some years, my first thought was,
“This Gordon Brown is REALLY subtle - B. Hussein will never know he’s suggesting that Brown doesn’t even know who Churchill is!”
As my father said “It must not be too big a deal, I haven’t seen anything on the news about it”.
There ya go, Obama’s propoganda machine churning away. And stupid Americans will sit back in a few years and wonder why the “nice” countries in Europe and Canada hate us still.
“We’ve always been at war with Oceania.”
US major media actively collude to protect him, as they did to elect him.
