Big Bust... Obama Bores the Brits to Tears

British Prime Minister Gordon Brown (L) and US President Barack Obama address a press conference in the Lacarno Treaty Room at the Foreign and Commonwealth Office near 10 Downing Street in London. (AFP)

The poor Brits were in for a big letdown today. Dear Leader bored them to tears at his press conference with Prime Minister Brown in London. The Daily Mail reported:

Allegedly the most charismatic politician in the world, Mr Obama was a disappointment. It sounded as though he had a blocked nose and so his lack of energy may have been a symptom of a cold. Jet lag, too. He probably wished he could have stayed in bed.

He spoke slowly, in a meandering manner. Some might say that he was thoughtful and professorial. Others might call his manner circuitous, even yarny. Am I saying that he was a bore? Oh dear. I find that I possibly am.

Maybe it was because Obama was without his TelePrompter?

I heard on Hannity today that he took 12 teleprompters on his trip. Series.

The Friends commented this morning that during the press conference with Brown he left his Blackberry on...you could hear that interference buzzing noise as he spoke.

The New York Times would have a field day with this if it had been President Bush who had left his phone on - or if Sarah Palin had given the Queen an IPod.

But they'll be quiet - NYT's suck-ups don't want it to be a game changer - so they won't say a word.

The Friends were quite hard on Barry this morning...they also said that Michelle refused to ride on the Queen’s train for reasons of safety. And Her Majesty rides on it just fine?

Always was boring, usually filibusters. What passes for exciting these days is piss poor.

Attended one Reagan speech, it was magical. Any run of the mill JFK address has this guy beat hands down.

I hope someone warned the Brits to check the Obama’s bags before they leave the palace.

Slow and meandering? TOTUS must be on the fritz. Pro’ly has a big blinking “Wrong Region” on the screen and the Obamateur was lost.

Yes, but the Daily Mail went on to say that his boring demeanor might ACTUALLY be a good thing because he didn’t seem as likely (AS BUSH) to go bombing some foreign capital.

So, y’all, don’t get too excited, the scales have not fallen from their eyes, and short of, God forbid, a real disaster, they will continue to live in the dark.

<smoking the cig?

I don’t know about you, but I only held one rolled-up thing like that and it wasn’t a cigarette.
