When Prime Minister Gordon Brown visited the White House this week, he received from the Obamas a collection of Top 25 American movies on DVD and his sons got toy versions of the president’s Marine One helicopter.

To hell with the “Queen”. Who cares? That form of government is obsolete and so is her title. This is a waste of money.

. . Or Chivas Regal.
In all fairness, Obama prolly wanted to give Brown something from an American industry . . . ain’t much of that anymore.
Although, if I were Brown, I would have preferred a Harley.

Somebody needs to tell
B.O. that when he meets the Queen protocol is to allow the Queen to extend her hand first. Don't be a Pelosi.

The British people care about her and the U.K is best and strongest ally. Plus its good to be polite.
