[QUOTE]Instead, the Labour leader presides over a country which is expected to suffer more severely from the recession than any other leading industrial nation, largely because of his own decade of mismanagement.
Not only does he remain in denial about this: he insists that the catastrophe has been caused by an outbreak of American financial plague, which to our misfortune has infected us.
Good grief i agree with the daily mail.
GORDON IS A MORON: Admit it oscar you know I'm right.

GORDON IS A MORON: Admit it oscar you know I'm right. Unfortunately, The Daily Mail does have the odd moron working for them who doesn't know what he's talking about, that's why you agree with him.
Frankly, Gordon needs to give Obama a Glasgow kiss and the sooner he does it the better.

"Brown's second purpose is virtuous, but extravagantly ambitious. He wants to associate himself with Obama in a crusade to save the world. "

In today's press it says that Obama has told Gordey that he wants to continue the 'special bond between the US and Britain.'

To our British friends........ We Americans need to apologize for our presidents rudeness...
It just keeps getting worse.
The President who claimed he would repair America’s image abroad has managed to diplomatically snub the one nation with whom we have had the most steadfast support, Great Britain. Barely covered in the U.S. mainstream media, the Obama White House has treated our best ally like an unwanted relative.
As the visit of the national leader of our closest ally began, the President informed the Brits that he wouldn’t be attending the joint press conference that was planned to be held once PM Brown’s plane touched down. This threw the visiting delegation into a tizzy leaving them scrambling to explain the sudden change in plans to the folks back home. Still, meetings were had and things smoothed out. Eventually the visit seemed to right itself… then came the Obama’s gift gaffes.
For his part, PM Brown gave two symbolic gifts and one that expressed national pride. Brown came bearing a pen holder carved from the timbers of the sister ship of that which gave the wood to create the famous “Resolute Desk,” the desk that has been in America’s charge since 1880. He also gave Obama the framed commission for that famous ship, the HMS Resolute. His third gift was a seven-volume biography of one of England’s greatest leaders, Winston Churchill.
How thoughtful and graceful!
So, what did President Obama give the British PM? 25 movies on DVD. Yeah, that’s it. Brown gives a symbolic gift like the pen holder fashioned from a famous British warship and Obama responds by sending a staffer to WalMart to pick up a few quick movies.
Graceless. Not only does Obama not find time to show up to the press conference, he fobs a foreign leader off with some DVDs. I wonder what DVDs he got the British PM? I’m guessing he bought from the bargain bin — maybe ‘Ernest Goes to Prison’ or ‘Superman 3′ was in there? Pathetic!
Oh, and the PM’s wife brought the Obama girls two dresses from an upscale British clothing store. What did Obama get the PM’s children? Two plush toys of Marine-1 (the presidential helicopter) from the White House gift shop! Yeah, I know the media are going gaga over Michelle’s very well-toned arms, but could they manage to notice that she’s a graceless clod?
All of this would be easier to take if St. Barack had not portrayed himself as a master diplomat, promising to use diplomacy in ways President Bush did not. Last I checked President Bush didn’t alienate our allies by treating them crassly.
Oh, and Barack also returned a bust of arch-Brit Winston Churchill from the Oval Office. It was on loan from the Brits. It’s widely been seen by the UK press as a snub.
Has America’s even- tempered new president already ruffled feathers in the land that spawned Borat and Benny Hill? That’s certainly how the spiky British press responded after the White House sent back to the British Embassy a bust of Sir Winston Churchill that had occupied a cherished spot in President Bush’s Oval Office. Intended as a symbol of transatlantic solidarity, the bust was a loaner from former British prime minister Tony Blair following the September 11 attacks. A bust of Abraham Lincoln–Obama’s historical hero–now sits in its place.
Worst. President. Ever.
Hello Great Britain........I'm Sorry!!!
