Cold Shoulder vs In From The Cold

Barack Obama gave the Prime Minister of The United Kingdom, Gordon Brown, the cold shoulder last week when the leader arrived in DC for his first visit to the Obama White House. Obama did not have the usual full blown press conference or state dinner and reluctantly held a small press conference and it looked like he was less than happy to be there. Brown gave Obama some well thought out gifts and his wife gave the Obama girls expensive clothing.

ME-chelle and the ME-ssiah gave less than stellar gifts. Barack gave the PM a 25 CD collection of American movies (were they in the format that will play in Britain) and his wife gave the boys model helicopters of Marine One (the kind you get in the White House gift shop). This is the way to treat the Prime Minister of our strongest ally?

The chattering class says that Brown is a big boy and will have to just get over it but it does beg a few questions. Did not the Democrats say that Bush ruined our standing in the world? Did not they tell us that they were going to improve our image and make us all friends once again? They claimed they would improve our image in the world but it seems to me they did more to harm our image than Bush ever did. At least George and Laura Bush knew how to be gracious hosts.

The Evil One claimed he was just too darn tired from the exhausting economic problems. The man who is young and full of life is too tired to be a proper leader and host? I guess Hillary was right. She should be the one to answer the phone at 3 am because Obama is too tired to get up to attend to it.

While Obama is wrecking our image in Europe he is working to improve it in Latin America by easing some of the travel and trade restrictions with Cuba. The efforts are seen as a first move in the eventual lifting of a trade embargo that has been in place for decades.

Barack Obama is shunning our free and democratic ally in Europe and at the same time working for closer ties with a Communist country led by a murderous dictator. Yeah, that makes sense.

I guess it won’t be long before Obama is hosting Castro (one of them) or is being hosted by them. I wonder what gifts he will shower them with. As an aside, it will be real interesting to see what kind of press conference he holds with Ahmadinejad when (not if) he is invited to the White House. I suggest a .45 caliber bullet but Obama will probably give him nuclear technology. Perhaps a few real helicopters.

The Brits are up in arms about the way their PM was snubbed (I guess they will have to get over it) and they are not too happy with Hopey Obama and his Klingon wife. They will be paying very close attention to see how people like Castro and Ahmadinejad are received at the White House (if in fact Castro is invited).

I was going to write that this is what happens when you send a boy to do a man’s job but then the race baiters would cry that it was a racist remark even though it is a common saying.

So I will just end by writing that Obama is an empty suit who has NO leadership experience and he is caught up in all the hype about him. He believes the stories of his greatness. The reality is, he is way out of his league.

He should have stuck with community organizing. Then again, he was a disaster at that as well.

Joe Biden, God love him, was the one who said that the White House was no place for on the job training.

That was when he wanted to be president. Now he is Obama’s dutiful lap dog.
