Great news, the Obamanation is running out of steam!
But Washington figures with access to Mr Obama's inner circle explained the slight by saying that those high up in the administration have had little time to deal with international matters, let alone the diplomatic niceties of the special relationship. Allies of Mr Obama say his weary appearance in the Oval Office with Mr Brown illustrates the strain he is now under, and the president's surprise at the sheer volume of business that crosses his desk.
A well-connected Washington figure, who is close to members of Mr Obama's inner circle, expressed concern that Mr Obama had failed so far to "even fake an interest in foreign policy".

He’s also “too marxist” to be president.

The fact that people like that even exist is very disturbing.

Fascinating. Did you ever read the book Silent Coup about the Nixon Administration and the Watergate “scandal”?

"....The real views of many in Obama administration were laid bare by a State Department official involved in planning the Brown visit, who reacted with fury when questioned by The Sunday Telegraph about why the event was so low-key.
The official dismissed any notion of the special relationship, saying:"There's nothing special about Britain. You're just the same as the other 190 countries in the world. You shouldn't expect special treatment."....."
I wish the reporter had named the, "State Department official"!

Reagan did more work in his seventies than this punk can do at 47!

Do not be deceived by the Alinsky-trained Marxist. Obama is as devious, ruthless and cunning as ever. He means to destroy America. Never forget that.

He's only 48 years old!! These people are in way over their heads, already!! You sure got that right. What an embarrassment he is. Also, if Mark Steyn is not lying to me, the PM took a great deal of care to choose thoughtful and very meaningful gifts for Zero, who promptly responded by giving the leader of one of our staunchest allies a set of American movies.

..but in all honesty, could biden do any worse??Seriously, I don't know and I don't want to find out. Biden is an arrogant prick. The difference is, because of his age and the fact he was in the Senate for 30 years, he thinks he is some sort of foreign policy expert. The reality is, they are both just as stupid & clueless as the other.
The phrase Dumb & Dumber keeps running through my head.

President Bush gave the first press conference three days after he was inaugurated
Press Conference with President George W. Bush and Education Secretary Rod Paige to Introduce the President’s Education Program

Amazing! The press just refused to accept reality with President Bush.
Thanks for the link. There is a photo of the whole East Room formal Presser! The top of the page has a bittersweet message: “This website is frozen in time...”

Gordon Brown's political world is in greater shambles that Obamas. And, Gory is 20 years his senior. So, where is that muscle man we kept seeing on the Hawaiian beaches during the campaign?

...one of our staunchest allies... Those days are over, at least for the next 4 years. Our new allies, France, Germany, and soon to be Syria.

Time to appoint a Czar of Tucking In and Bedtime Stories. Let's send the new czar supplies so he doesn't request $1.2 Billion for the new department.
