Mr Brown’s gifts included an ornamental desk pen holder made from the oak timbers of Victorian anti-slaver HMS Gannet, once named HMS President.

Another treasure given to the U.S. President was the framed commission for HMS Resolute, a vessel that came to symbolise Anglo-US peace when it was saved from ice packs by Americans and given to Queen Victoria.

Finally, Mr Brown gave a first edition set of the seven-volume classic biography of Churchill by Sir Martin Gilbert.

And in return, Brown received…

Obama’s blockbuster gift for Brown to reaffirm the ‘special relationship’: 25 DVDs

It has been reported that Michelle Obama raided the WH gift shop for gifts to give Mrs. Brown and their children.

Klassy!

[...] Allahpundit is arguing “control issues,” and he’s got several links backing him up. I can see where that might make sense, but honestly: it could just as easily be a situation where he doesn’t simply care that much. Tim Shipman, on the difference between “special relationship” (old formulation) and “special partnership” (new formulation): A Washington official who is close to several members of Mr Obama’s inner circle said: “They craft every word for the stone tablets. Words are what they do. It is not a mistake. [...]

That Winston Churchill was a flagrant racist and colonialist is an accepted mantra of the cracker-hating radical stew in which Michelle O. and her sire have been steeped.
They drudge out-of-context quotes such as;l
“I do not admit…that a great wrong has been done to the Red Indians of America, or the black people of Australia…by the fact that a stronger race, a higher grade race…has come in and taken its place” – Churchill to Palestine Royal Commission, 1937.

Michelle mandated the return of the Churchill but I’m sure. She is indeed Lady MacBeth

From the mysterious rejection of the Churchill bust to the snub of GB, this White House managed to insult our closest ally for no apparent reason. Word on the Telegraph is that Michelle O was behind the intentional slight. It’s defenitely amateur hour at 1600.

I’ve noticed since his campaign time, that the “Chosen One” does not liked to be questioned or have to respond. It’s almost, like how dare you.

Actually, had forgotten about both Nancy Reagan and his grandmother’s funeral. Wow and hmmmm… Am a little loath to accuse anyone of such blatant sexism and racism, even my beloved Obama (/s) but your point looks more plausible the more I think about it. Thanks.
