25 DVD set of classic movies to the Enlish Prime Minister

In return Obama gets a pen holder... crafted from wood from an anti-slavery ship. 25 DVD's? WTF.

3.2.1.... until someone spouts off about Bush giving him a jacket.

EDIT: the goft was given in Washington... but I do not want Obama to meet any more world leaders. At least Hillary has met most of them.

Can anyone make out this incoherent post? You don't want the President to meet any more world leaders? Prepare yourself for disappointment.

I know it is friday, I am bored, and trying to point out Obama is out of place as president.

I mean the guy gets a pen holder made out of wood from a ship that intercepted slave ships coming from Africa.... that gift is priceless. How awesome is that to give the first black president. And he returns the favor with a 25 DVD set of classic movies.

And werent they region coded meaning the prime minister cant even watch them at home lol?

Anyways from what I am gathering Obama gave our longest and more trusted allie more or less the cold shoulder. That is a good start to our new face on foreign diplomacy. Brush off our strongest allie and embrace Russia and Hamas.

Smile as the train goes over the cliff in bizzaro world.

This may take the crown as the most baffling and pointless thread on P&N to date. And that's saying something.

Hahahahaha

The British tortured Obama's grandfather. They should be happy that he gave them toughtless gifts rather than no gifts. I'm loving the reaction in the British press. They're realizing how lonely they are in the world now. No more "special relationship" for you.

Good lord rudder you people are infatuated with Obama. Keep up the stalker'ish obsession with tracking down every single action taken by him.

Next up....... the shaving cream he uses and why it means he wants use to suck Putin off and end capitalism forever.

So very accurate!!

You shouldn't be allowed to use a keyboard with a functioning 1 key. I have yet to see a single post from you that lacks an exclamation point, and often it's more like four. Your seven word reply above is paired with six exclamation points. There's simply nothing to justify that much exuberance. Do you freebase large amounts of cocaine before posting?

I'm just giving you shit for no reason because the subject matter the OP posted is so completely irrelevant to everything ever that it isn't even worthy of insulting. Obligatory exclamation point!

Well I do see why winnar posts all of his threads. It is kind of like when you are a kid and you see a hornets nest. Then you throw something at it to stir them up and run.

With the obamanites it is the same thing. I threw my rock but soon I will have to leave though.

Sociopaths do. Others say, why not leave the hornets alone? And mature people say, 'oh, this is a forum for discussing politics and news, and I'll respect the people there.'

You on the other hand see only some hornets and in your continuous attraction to bright shiny objects, see a chance to make some commotion.

It's the same thinking that might make you use racial epithets or cursing 'just to get a reaction'.

I don't mind the point being made as much as others - head of state gifts are a matter of curiosity for many - but your 'it proves he shouldn't be president' shows you as an idiot.

Obama obviously doesn't like Gordon Brown. Which is fine, really, since Gordon Brown is a much better chief than he is. Certainly explains why GB is lowering taxes while Zero is hiking them.

What kind of asshole, though, invites someone to fly across the Atlantic and gives them a set of tea coasters? Might as well not give anything at all.

This thread is a republican distraction from talking about the real issue we face - Rush Limbaugh.

You remember the pictures of George W. clipping brush on his ranch? Stalkerish, eh?

Gordon Brown better than Obama? Okay We'll swap then! Done deal.

Gordon Brown is a heavyweight political strategist, and maybe even a good organiser, but he's not a good leader. He's a completely charisma-free zone. Nobody even knows who he is. Most people in the world probably still think Blair is in charge.

Well, no matter how you cut it wasn't a great start-off diplomatically. Certainly not what we've been led to expect.

The British gifts look to have been quite thoughtful, yet misguided perhaps. Obama has no ancestory of slavery AFAIK. TBH, I'm a little surprised no one has claimed this was 'racist'.

Anyhoo, this is 'small potatoes' compared to what's going on and will soon be forgotten.
