How Dare President Obama Say “Just Say No” To British Gift Depicting The Image Of The Man Responsible For The Torture Of “Grandpappy Obama”?
Hey, I thought President Barack Obama was supposed to bring in a new era of foreign policy; an era where everybody loves the U.S. of A., including all those “Axis Of Evil” countries former President GENERAL “Surge” W. Bush had been torquing off for almost a decade. Even I had hopes his so-called “extraordinary” communications skills would lead to peace but now I realize we’re bound to have a serious shorfall in this arena, particularly when now even our brothers and sisters from across the “pond” are offended and stunned at the fact the Prez decided he couldn’t get the bronze bust of the former General’s “hero” shipped right back to British property as in “YESTERDAY“.
From The Telegraph (UK):
Joining our brothers and sisters from across the pond in their “shock” are quite a few prominent (of course) right wing bloggers who just cannot believe President Obama would make such a horrible gesture to our closest ally.“… American politicians have made quoting Churchill, whose mother was American, something of an art form, but not Mr Obama, who prefers to cite the words and works of his hero Abraham Lincoln. Indeed a bust of Mr Lincoln now sits in the Oval Office where Epstein’s Churchill once ruled the roost.
Churchill has less happy connotations for Mr Obama than those American politicians who celebrate his wartime leadership. It was during Churchill’s second premiership that Britain suppressed Kenya’s Mau Mau rebellion. Among Kenyans allegedly tortured by the colonial regime included one Hussein Onyango Obama, the President’s grandfather.
The rejection of the bust has left some British officials nervously reading the runes to see how much influence the UK can wield with the new regime in Washington. …”
Call me a “moonbat”, an “unrealistic optimist”, or whatever you wish, but somehow I just have this funny feeling we’re going to get through this one together and things will be just fine between Great Britain and the United States of America without a single shot being fired.

Just say’ man, Just sayin….
Unfortunately, I really AM the evil man you see on that photo, bro
This is one I kind of have to file under “who gives a rats ass?” As much as I respect Churchill, I wouldn’t want his ugly mug around.
LMFAO, JOE! Well said
