Obama Unites The World, Or Not


Just plain LOL. Less than 2 months in office and he's already managed to piss off our biggest fake ally. Go Obama GO!
"President Barack Obama just plain rude to Britain. Don't call us in future.

The morning papers and TV last night featured plenty of comment focused on the White House's very odd and, frankly, exceptionally rude treatment of a British PM. Squeezing in a meeting, denying him a full press conference with flags etc. The British press corps, left outside for an hour in the cold, can take it and their privations are of limited concern to the public.

But Obama's merely warmish words (one of our closest allies, said with little sincerity or passion) left a bitter taste with this Atlanticist. Especially after his team had made Number 10 beg for a mini press conference and then not even offered the PM lunch."

Ouch.
