Did the Brits interrogate Obama’s paternal grandfather as rumored? I don’t know; what in the heck do we actually know about Obama, other than what Plouffe and Axelrod want us to believe?
Obama doesn’t seem to respect the British, does he? As he said early on in his presidency when asked about our special relationship with the Brits, ‘Well, we have special relationships with a number of countries.’ Returned the Churchill bust. Sent lousy gifts to the Prime Minister, the PM’s family and the Royal Family. Michelle treated the Queen as if she were a prop at a senior citizen center, touching her in all manner of inappropriate ways. Interrupted the ‘God Save the Queen’ anthem with a toast. We pay for a ton of protocol officials at the State Department but the Obama’s can’t be bothered learning how to act.
Good grief, what a gaffe. ‘The English Embassy?’ Surely Obama’s at least heard the term ‘British Embassy?’ Does he know the difference between England, Britian, and the British Isles? Does he care? They keep saying he’s so smart… ‘They’ are the Obama-fawning MSM and Dem pundits, of course.
Yes, I know he corrected his gaffe, but if TOTUS knew the proper term, why didn’t Obama? The most telling thing to me is that the MSM completely ignored the gaffe. Contrast that treatment with any conservative or Repub in a similar situation.
After Obama said ‘English Embassy’ he tried to correct it by saying ‘Embassy of the British Isles’ which was possibly worse. Good thing he finally looked at TOTUS and got it right.
