Does America owe Great Britain a huge apology for Obama's ...???

Tweet

To all Americans and our global brethren abroad, Do you think that America owes Great Britain an apology? I believe that every American should be embarrassed by Obama's first reception of a foreign dignitary. Allow me explain ... As shocking as it is to believe; Obama 'dissed' the British Prime Minister, and the People of Great Britain, one of our most cherished allies -- not once, not twice, but three times -- all in a matter of a three weeks! First, Obama returned the Winston Churchill bust that was loaned to GW Bush, in stewardship for the American People (read about the specifics below). Then, Obama failed to come clean about his boneheaded 'plan' to not extend to Prime Minister Brown the traditional (full dress) joint press conference in the East Room. Then, the third 'dis' showed Obama to be the oaf that he really is: Obama ponied up a caddish, cheezy gift that probably could have been purchased from any "KMart" to P.M. Brown's very classy, very thoughtful, very traditionally respectful gifts. My goodness, shouldn't every official dignitary of every global ally be treated with traditional respect and honors? How would the people of France, Germany, Sweden, Japan, or the Phillipines react if the US President snubbed their heads of state? ___________________________________________________________________________________ "Mr Brown's gifts included an ornamental desk pen holder made from the oak timbers of Victorian anti-slaver HMS Gannet, once named HMS President. Mr Obama was so delighted he has already put it in pride of place in the Oval Office on the Resolute desk which was carved from timbers of Gannet's sister ship, HMS Resolute. Another treasure given to the U.S. President was the framed commission for HMS Resolute, a vessel that came to symbolise Anglo-US peace when it was saved from ice packs by Americans and given to Queen Victoria. Finally, Mr Brown gave a first edition set of the seven-volume classic biography of Churchill by Sir Martin Gilbert." http://www.ask.com/bar?q=obama%27s+cheesy+gifts+to+gordon+brown&page=1&qsrc=19&zoom=How+Can+I+Contact+Gordon+Brown+MP%7CGordon+Brown+Estate+Agents%7CGordon+Brown+MP&ab=3&u=http%3A%2F%2Fminx.cc%2F%3Fpost%3D283816 So Obama thought it appropriate to give the Prime Minister of our most valued ally a collection of DVDs of 25 classic American films. D'oh, not even Blueray! Finally, to our very cherished British allies and friends across the pond, please don't think as low of all Americans as you are most surely feeling about Obama right now. Obama's pathetic, oafish gaff has not gone unnoticed. While it is, for the most part, being ignored by the main stream media (which means that once again the mainstream media is ignoring the foreign press, as this story is all over the British media), that big, 'ol meanie Rush Limbaugh has been chiding Obama's inexperience and total lack of dignity in this regard over the airwaves. Which of course means that at least twenty(+) million Americans are hanging our heads in shame over Obama's inexcusable behavior toward Britain. We humbly ask that you accept our most sincere apology. Please remember that more Americans didn't vote for Obama than did (40% of all Americans didn't vote in November, and among the 60% who did, nearly 50% of that 60% voted against Obama).

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 for a further four years, the White House said: "Thanks, but no thanks."[/b][/i] http://www.ask.com/bar?q=obama+dissed+the+british+people&page=1&qsrc=0&zoom=Obama+for+President%7CIs+Barack+Obama+Muslim%7CBarack+Obama%27s+Religion&ab=0&u=http%3A%2F%2Fdonsingleton.blogspot.com%2F2009%2F02%2Fobama-disses-british.html 7CHow+to+Hold+a+Press+Conference&ab=0&u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.rushlimbaugh.com%2Fhome%2Fdaily%2Fsite_030509%2Fcontent%2F01125107.guest.html "Also, the first couples are not meeting together. Normally they have lunch, but Michelle Obama's entertaining Gordon Brown's wife in the crayon room in the White House or wherever they're doing it, but there's no social event planned at all, and the UK daily headline: "'Downing Street Left Embarrassed after President Obama Scales Down First Meeting with Brown.' -- Downing Street was left scrambling to avoid a diplomatic embarrassment today after the White House ruled out a formal press conference to mark Gordon Brown's first formal meeting with Barack Obama. Officials denied the Prime Minister was being snubbed after it emerged that the new president would not make himself available for the traditional joint appearance before the White House media." They did bring cameras in the Oval Office for a while, which they always do. "Mr Brown's aides are trying to make the best of what is a distinctly low key visit compared to the family hospitality lavished on Tony Blair by George Bush when they met for the first time." ____________________________________________________________________________________ [b]What say you?
