British subject and Heritage Foundation staffer Nile Gardiner has been so struck by President Obama's snubs against its longtime ally Great Britain that he's compiled a list of the top 10 insults.
Gardiner, who serves as Director of the Margaret Thatcher Center for Freedom at Heritage, appeared on Washington talk station WMAL's "Morning Majority" today to discuss his list:

Should not have stopped at 10

I wish he had gone on because there were a few other ones like the iPod full of his speeches(who the hell does that??) as well as how Moochelle put her arm around the queen which was a HUGE no-no.
I think there were others, but that's all I can think of right off the top of my head. Oh and that lame ass toast to the queen and screwing up the word "vitality." He got royally(literally!) embarrassed on that one.

Obama's insults to Britain?
Submitted by Icarus on Thu, 05/26/2011 - 4:39pm.
Obviously, this is a tongue-in-cheek list, but calling France our strongest ally as an insult to Britain can't be taking serious enough to even jokingly speak of it. Actually, Obama didn't say "France" is the U.S.'s strongest ally. Instead, he said, "we don't have a stronger friend and stronger ally than Nicolas Sarkozy, and the French people." But that may be splitting hairs.
Why is this a laughable "insult"?
President George W. Bush in June of 2007: "We had no stronger ally -- and we still have a strong ally in Prime Minister Abe, by the way, from Japan -- but no stronger ally in recognizing that democracy is the long-term solution to defeating this ideological enemy."

President George W. Bush in February of 2002: "I want to tell you something, we've got no better friends than Canada. They stand with us in this incredibly important crusade to defend freedom, this campaign to do what is right for our children and our grandchildren."

Meanwhile, Obamas ending of The Special Relationship between the US and the UK? Not so laughable.

Ending The Special Relationship...

...by complimenting Sarkozy and the French people?
I think the Special Relationship can survive.
Are you being intentionally

Are you being intentionally dense? That question is rhetorical.

the term would be "brain dead" when applied to the Bird Man.
He is one who will always speak well of Obama, just like the media, regardless of the circumstances.
While truly a pathetic state of being, it is normal for these dumb-assed libs.
