Were you worried that one “Gift Gaffs” posting wouldn’t sufficiently cover this critical story?
This is nothing compared to the time when Reagan gave Gorbachev a pair of Acme rocket roller skates.
Since they were looking for the word “reset”, why didn’t they just look at any Russian computer for the reset button and copy the word.
In both of those articles (about the British gift and the Russian gift), they make note that the US media is ignoring it while the rest of the world is taking note.
Even my friends and relatives are confused as to why it’s such a big deal to me because “It must not be too big a deal, they haven’t talked about it on the news”.
At some point the US media is going to be recognized as being more interested in perpetuating propoganda for Obama than actually being journalists and have no credibility whatsoever by the rest of the world.
We already know it in the right in America, but now the rest of the world can get in on the dirty secret we have all known.
Between Canckles and Plugs, it’s a toss-up who’s smarter, but I still think they are both smarter than The Zero.
Those websites were dead, 10am EST 8thMarch. Anybody know why?
When I first heard about this story, I thought it was satire. Can you imagine the howling from the MSM if the Bush administration had pulled a diplomatic disaster like this.
I can see why the press wants to avoid this one. Clearly the gift was a jab at President Bush, who made it necessary for us to “restart” our relationship with Russia. Didn’t turn out so well, did it? The press will hide this as long as they can.
Have they discussed yet Obama bringing the Queen a Snuggie?
No one in the State department who knows Russian?
I call the *bulls^$t* flag on this.
The State Department couldn’t get the Cyrillic right on the button either...
