Descending from the heavens for the G8 summit at beautiful Lough Erne this week, President Obama caused some amusement to his British hosts. The chancellor of the exchequer had been invited to give a presentation to the assembled heads of government on the matter of tax avoidance (one of the big items on the agenda, for those of you who think what the IRS could really use right now is even more enforcement powers). The president evidently enjoyed it. Thrice, he piped up to say how much he agreed with Jeffrey, eventually concluding the presentation with the words, Thank you, Jeffrey. Unfortunately, the chancellor of the exchequer is a bloke called George Osborne, not Jeffrey Osborne. President Obama subsequently apologized for confusing George with Jeffrey, who was a popular vocal artiste back in the Eighties when Obama was dating his composite girlfriend and making composite whoopee to the composite remix of Jeffrey Osbornes 1982 smoocheroo, On the Wings of Love.

Thanks to the stork delivering his bundle to Miss Kardashian (see above), Americans seem not to have noticed that the U.S. has just lost yet another war. But in Moscow, Beijing, Tehran, they noticed, and they will act accordingly. On the wings of love, up and above the clouds, Obama wafts ever higher on his own gaseous uplift. Down on solid ground, the rest of the world must occasionally wonder if they havent confused the U.S. delegation with the worlds most empty-headed boy band.

“...empty-headed boy band.”
That should leave a mark, but won’t.
Thanks, MSM sidemen.
Mark Steyn ping.
Freepmail me, if you want on or off the Mark Steyn ping list.
Thanks for the ping neverdem.
Apparently he was the subject of a BBC special.
My poor, old, slow, dialup 56K modem thanks for linking to the print version.
Those folks do what those folks do. I would say it plainer but would be banned for doing so. Let’s just not put any more of those folks in office on any level
I hope everyone realized that it takes a committed leftist to get this angry at Obama’s behavior. Clare Daly was a member of the Socialist Party until recently. Think of Dennis Kucinich.
When will a conservative get as angry and articulate?
What have we wrought?
Steyn can paint a word picture like no one else.
Mark Steyn BUMP!
Basically, if you hired a guy who was a pot-head as a teenager....and thirty years later measured his ability to think, remember things, and act mature...this is what you get. Most of his “act” is kept going daily by the actions of six people around him, who arrange the schedule, ensure he says certain things, and talks-the-talk. I would imagine that he’s on some type of medication that helps him focus throughout the day....otherwise, he’d just be fumbling around and acting dopey all the time.
