Do you think Obama disrespected one of Americas staunchest allies when Gordon Brown visited Washington and Obama made it a low key visit, and not a proper state reception, which the Prime Minister of England deserved even though hes a bit of a wet blanket. Also Obama returned the statue of Winston Churchill to Britain, which was given as a gift. Even if you don't like the gift, why return it? That's just rude. And Russia is continuing to prod at Obama with the latest matter of the missile shield in Poland and Iran. Clinton gave Russia a Reset button to me it looked like an Illuminate catalyst's clandestine message of Yo Ruskis Lets Nuke Iran and split the Oil profits.

The prick got the job by default it happens at work all the time, I personally don't care what race creed or religion the man in the driving seat is as long as hes got the keys.

I think the low key visit, as you put it, was sort of like they were 'chums' and Gordy can visit anytime he wants to. Obama's style appears to be more casual than most politicians, part of the 'I'm just an ordinary man like you' charm, I guess.


And did he actually return the bust to Britain or just give it back to Bush? It was a gift to Bush and perhaps he wanted it back in Texas where he can sit with a big book of famous people and properly identify the figure that's baffled him for the last 8 years.


We'll have to wait and see with Russia, but the fact that the US is even talking to Iran, discussing nuclear nonproliferation with Russia, sending $900m to help rebuild Gaza and closing Gitmo, can't be a bad start to his presidency.


I remain hopeful.

what really made me chuckle were the gifts exchanged, the browns buying dresses, necklaces and a collection of books for the obama girls and receiving two plastic helicopters available from the white house gift shop; and then gordon giving barack a first edition series of books and a pen holder made from the wood of a historic ship (which was a sister ship to the ship from which the oval office desk was made) and recieved a dvd set


i don't think that it's important for world leaders to give each other good presents so unlike the telegraph readers i'm not outraged by this, but it does amuse me

His chin is slightly too "up" & his nostrils say 'I know.....but you don't think I'm really listening do you"


...and he fiddles with his shirt cuffs a little to often ( for my liking )




Insightful ehh ( I'm on to something here )...........


Oh and posting Churchill back, nothing wrong with that other than "the fat guy statue..yeah jus send him back"

Is he's confusing U.Kplc with Harrods...?


Really lastly....what about the statues carbon footprint now...... I mean..


W**F

    • Walking around, it looks to me as if weedkiller has been used, as some weeds have been left in situ but are dead. However, most of the weeds which have been (apparently)  killed in this way are hardly likely to lift pavements, being things like Shepherd's Purse. They might seed around, but I'm not sure what harm that does. I would like to know exactly what is the remit of the council workers who are tasked with dealing with weeds in pavements (and in tree pits?). Things like dandelions which have taproots (but are hard to remove in one piece)  have been left in the pavement,  whereas things like Toadflax (which don't, and are easy to just pull out) have been removed.
    • Yet another recommendation for Casper the  handyman.   He recently completed some odd jobs around our house including installing curtain rails and hanging pictures.  He offered practical solutions to the issues that arose, was efficient and communicative.  Very reasonable rates. We’ll be using his services again and have recommended to family & friends. 
    • Tom is a legend, even though he supports Arsenal..
    • The seller hasn't been named on here, and it isn't clear that it was a genuine misunderstanding, given the contents of the OP. Maybe it should be left as a warning to others to try things out before you take them home. Or indeed before you sell them. If  something seems wrong, it probably is. It shouldn't have taken a public post to resolve things . Also, if the laptop actually belongs to a company, it wasn't the seller's to sell, regardless of how he obtained it.
