Thanks For Nothing, Mr Obama, As You Hang Us Brits Out To Dry Over The Falklands
The Aged P.com ^ | 25/02/10 | The Aged P

Thanks a lot, Mr. President. You insulted our Queen by giving her an iPod as if she were some primitive tribal leader wide eyed for magical technological totems. You treated our Prime Minister as if he were the boss of a small waste management company touting for a drain clearing contract in some Chicago precinct (I don’t like Gordon Brown but he is sending our young men and women to fight and sometimes die alongside your troops in Afghanistan). You also sent back a bust of one of our greatest heroes, Sir Winston Churchill, loaned to the White House since 9/11. You obviously prefer to bow low to the Emperor of Japan, placate Vladimir “Il Duce” Putin of Russia and not get too overly fussed about the savage repression of pro democracy demonstrators in Iran – but somehow we’re beginning to get the feeling that we Brits don’t really mean all that much to you.

B-b-b-b-but Obama was gonna make Europe loooooooove us again! He was gonna “heal our broken alliances.”

One by one, our allies discover that we have a petulant schmuck for a president.

Why? 'Cause you Brits oppressed Barack's forebears in Kenya.

'Bout time a little of that good ol' fashioned sin-of-thy-fathers racial grievance stuff got spread around a bit.

Why should we Americans get to hog all of it?

These people are giving their country away to Muslims and diversity and pc! Obama is an idiot but these fools are in quite a pickle and it’s not our fault.

Are billboards permitted in Sussex County? Maybe we could all pitch in for one of those George Bush “Miss Me Yet?” signs?

I'd like to think all this would make the Eurinals realize that they don't know crap about US politics and just shut up for the next election, but they won't.

I don't know crap about British, Dutch or Lithuanian politicians, so I don't whinge about them and write articles about who I want to win their elections.

I have it on good authority that we don’t give a damn about what the rest of the world thinks about us. As it should be.

The “Awakening”

You should have sent him a gilded Koran. I’m sure he wouldn’t have sent that back.

In Eastern Africa, where Obama is from, British represent oppression and slavery. This does not speak to the fact that British saved them, more than once, from disease and famine and horrible intatribal war.

Obama is East African and is not American. He should be regarded, in dealing with him, as such.

The second sentence made me think of the “Far Side” cartoon where someone yells out the warning “Anthropologists!” and his fellow-”primitive tribesmen” rush to hide their stereos, VCRs, etc.

Don’t feel too badly about this UK. Obozo doesn’t think to highly of us Americans either - and he was elected to represent all of us (in theory anyway).
