The author should be ashamed.

She calles it “patently false”, but then quotes Romney as saying he wants the bust returned to the OVAL OFFICE, not the “White House”.

Which is it?
Even this reporter-ette can’t figure it out.

"Diplomats were at first reluctant to discuss the whereabouts of the Churchill bronze, after its ejection from the seat of American power. But the British Embassy in Washington has now confirmed that it sits in the palatial residence of ambassador Sir Nigel Sheinwald, just down the road from Vice President Joe Biden's official residence. It is not clear whether the ambassador plans to keep it in Washington or send it back to London."

Hmm Ive read articles explaining it was “on loan” to us but that Obama returned it to England. At the very least he took it out of the oval office, we shall see.

Moving it out of the Oval Office is more than bad enough.I'd bet the clothes on my back that there was room there for both Lincoln's and Chuchill's bust.Geeze,all Osama would have to do is move Bill Ayers's bust to the White House Recycling Room.

I have noticed that a lot of articles at Politico no longer accept comments . . . gee, I wonder why the liars have done that.

Dose the nice Democrapic “presstitute” have a rationalization for the infamous “Ghetto Gift” Hussein gave the Queen of England?

Dan Pfeiffer, now which Obamugabe buttkisser is he? Is he the one that walks around with the industrial strength knee pads on? Or does he crawl around on all fours and pant after Obamugabe?

It is rumored that one of his slaves retrieved it from a septic tank where Obama instructed it be placed, cleaned it up, and put it back on display.

More cheap shameless politics from the Obama administration.

If it were a debunked myth it would be on Snopes or Fact Check for sure. It is not on either one.

Interesting that there is no ability to respond to the reporter to query about her error in facts; "Responding to Romney's claim that the bust has been removed from 1600 Pennsylvania Ave ".

She offers no quote that Romney said anything but returning the Churchill bust to the Oval Office, a place where even the White House spokesperson says it is not. Since Romney is not Charles Krauthammer, her specifics do not meet the facts. Thus this reportage is not worth this reporter's probity, which is good since she has none if she considers this story accurate.

It’s just a figure of speech.

Dems are well aware of that, right?

So, four years later they finally come up with ‘this is not true.’ Before which they said nothing.

Waiting to tell the Truth until the election? I doubt it. Suddenly realized that it made them look like marxists and would be used by the Repubs? Maybe.

UPDATE!

The British have reported that the Bust referred to in the article was indeed returned and that the bust displayed for Cameron's 2010 visit was a DIFFERENT bust that the White House has had since the 1960s.
