Obama needs James Madison, George Mason, Thomas Jefferson and George Washington, too.

I have the distinct impression that the only pieces of paper related to “dead white guys” that hold any interest whatsoever for the Obamas are the green-colored ones that they can steal from the People...

A very elegant, historic and thoughtful gift.
I hope Obama didn’t disgrace America again and give an iPod with his own speeched on it, or Michelle offer Carla her very own boob belt.
No pictures available yet. I will post them when available.

Obama's gift
To: Cincinna
So did Obama give Sarkosy the same thing he did with the Queen...another ipod with his speeches on it? What a narcissist in chief we have.

Very interesting and valuable gift. Returning it . . . a symbolic severing of a long-standing tie?

Obama promptly wrote a health care cheer-leading speech on the back to make it more valuable and then put it on ebay as a ‘buy it now’ for $0.99 with free shipping.

That’s funny.
And some Wonder Bread to make croutons, and Kraft American cheese slices for toppings.
Bon appetit, Sarky!

The punk president probably doesn’t understand the historical significane of the document. I hope the National Archives intervened before he folded it and put it in his pocket.

I'm guessing he would have returned the gesture with a plastic egg full of used silly-putty and an 8-pack of armour hotdogs.

Obama probably gave him the Jeremiah Wright VHS tapes and a copy of “Prairie Fire” by his anarchist-terrorist buddy Bill Ayers.

Pearls before swine. Diplomacy between allies is something alien to the present administration.
The thoughtfulness and appropriateness of the gift represents a gesture of goodwill between nations, though, and so it’s appreciated by the American People, regardless of our President’s views upon the Founders.

“I have the distinct impression that the only pieces of paper related to “dead white guys” that hold any interest whatsoever for the Obamas are the green-colored ones that they can steal from the People...”
So true....
