Apologies To Our UK Friends.....
« on: April 16, 2013, 09:14:44 AM »
Seems our president can't find time to attend Margret Thacher's funeral.

I'm sorry for this intolerable insult.  Mrs. Thatcher was a woman of vision and courage. She deserves better from the US Government.

A separate delegation of Republicans will attend, to in some small way make amends for the president high-hatting  the UK.

That's just WRONG!  :-[ :-[ :-[ :-[ :-[ :-[ :-[ :-[ :-[ :-[

But not suprising... I too am yet again ashamed of our president... To our brothers in UK please accept apologies. Not many of us agree with this head yahoo in Washington...

It's not the first time he has snubbed the UK (albeit this is the most egregious),  and I doubt seriously it will be the last.   Remember - Britain was a worldwide colonial power that heavily influenced events in Kenya, and subsequently the views of Obama Senior........

I've been telling you guys that Obama is not real popular in Europe dispite what you have heard
elsewhere . They think he is a rude, pushy half pint thug and his wife is gross.
I'm sure he will not be missed anymore than he is around the Pacific Rim .
About the only country's that do like him are not even worth mentioning .

  Got that right.......anyone that is either IGNORANT of Royal Protocol,  or has the nerve to IGNORE it is gross and considered of a much lower class......   what would've happened to any other Brit if they put their hand on the backside of the Queen??????    what an embarrassment to our country.    She tried to treat the Queen as a homegirl.

The mere mention of Obama stirs a lot of people into reciting toilet humor .

 On last nights news, they had a short clip of the funeral and mentioned representaives of 76 countires attended.  They further mentioned a group of former US Secretaries of State attended.     Interestingly enough, (but no suprise) obama's lap-dog newscasters neglected to mention obama was invited, but declined to attend.   
I'm sure the man-child jay carney passed out kibbles & bits, puppy treats etc to all the good 'lil news anchors on CBS, NBC & ABC and said, "Good dogs!"

My local news here in CT barely gave the funeral a mention!!  Typical for us here in the No. East.  :( >:( All we hear for the last four months was Newtown and now all it is is Boston.

  Thatcher was the last great conservative leader of Europe, a direct disciple of Winston Churhill.   O'bama didin't go because he couldn't be seen paying homage to such a person.  And, he is still no doubt in shock and mourning over his massive defeat on the gun control bill.
