Obama Meets With British Prime Minister Brown
The Washington Post ^ | March 3, 2009 | Staff

Posted on 03/03/2009 2:48:29 PM PST by yoe

PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA: Hello, everybody. Good to see you. Where -- where are the Brits? (UNKNOWN): They're over here.

OBAMA: They're over there, huh?

BRITISH PRIME MINISTER GORDON BROWN: In fact, Barack, they're everywhere.

OBAMA: Are they? They're spread out?

All right. My understanding is, we're going to do four questions. And we'll just alternate. I'll start off with Jennifer Loven of A.P.

QUESTION: (OFF-MIKE)

OBAMA: You know, I think that the report that was in the New York Times didn't accurately characterize the letter. What we had was a very lengthy letter talking about a whole range of issues, from nuclear proliferation to how are we going to deal with a set of common security concerns along the Afghan border and -- and terrorism.

And what I said in the letter is the same thing that I've said publicly, which is that the missile defense that we have talked about deploying is directed towards not Russia, but Iran. That has always been the concern, that you had potentially a missile from Iran that threatened either the United States or Europe.

Obama has been talking to Russia so his comments to the PM are shallow...he actually has snubbed this important visitor or is that just my imagination? Long article but worth the read if you missed the actual televised meeting.

Obama is only nice to the muzzies and the Russia. Sound like someone that should be in charge of our country?

Did Brown aim correctly this time?

Do they draw straws to decide who gets to ask the question given them by the 0bamites?

Hello. Welcome to the White House. Have some Kool-Aid.

Jennifer Loven, Whoreporter for the Associated Pimps.

Where -- where are the Brits?

He really said that? I thought this transcript came from The Onion.

HopeyChangey becomes more of an embarrassment every day.

Wonder if the "Brits" still love him?
