And the choice of the neo-cons who are screaming their heads off over Michelle Obama touching the Queen is the guy who did THIS:

If things get too much chummier the Obamas will be bring back a Corgi for the girls…

Perhaps if people would care to know what’s going on instead of assuming the worst, you’d know that the Queen actually REQUESTED an iPod.
You’d also know that besides the right wing nuts who cry foul in pite of the fact that we had a mealy-mouthed imbecile screwing things up for the last eight years, no one else CARES about this kind of crap. Read the British papers instead of watching Fox News. They actually thought it was cool.
Obama rocked the G-20. Deal with it.

charliekane said, 7 months ago

Also, as posted elsewhere and previously, it was a great gift, customized to the Queen with pictures and videos from her past visits to America, set to Rodgers & Hammerstein music (which she loves). It was accompanying a rare Richard Rodgers songbook signed by Rodgers. So there.

Yes, it was customized for the Queen And they had a great little audience with the queen and Prince Philip. They looked comfortable meeting each other.
Simon_Jester said, 7 months ago
Whereas last time Bush visited with Her Majesty, his security contingent trampled one of the Queen’s gardens.

And what did the neo-cons have to say about that?
( scroll down )
They don’t really care about Michelle touching the Queen, or about Obama giving her an Ipod.
It’s just another temper-tantrum by a load of spoiled brats, hacked off at Obama for having the nerve to WIN the election.

Give it a rest Simple Jester
Simon_Jester said, 7 months ago
Awwww, whassa matter Howdy-Doody?
Did I hit a lil’ nerve? LOL!
The day I you guys on the right stop dredging up everything from Chappaquiddick to the Smoot-Hawley tarriff act ( See the Sack Cartoon ) is the day you get your rest.
Not before.

Simpleton–you are incapable with your one track “mind” (give you the doubt)
Simon_Jester said, 7 months ago
Tisk tisk…nothing left in your quiver but personal attacks Howdy?
Make all of them you want…it won’t change the fact that Rush, et al. are bashing Obama over something that didn’t even come CLOSE to the boorish behavior of their all-American hero on his Euro trips.
Bottom line, I’ve got the facts…all you have is name calling and manufactured outrage.
And that goes for you too, Stewpup.
Sooky Rottweiler's ... said, 7 months ago
Jester, I’m your ditto-head.
Stewie, don’t you think that she wouldn’t already have about 7 of ANY little thingy she ever wanted? I mean, she’s the friggin’ queen!
HOWGOZIT said, 7 months ago
Like the old soda commercial Simple Jester: “make 7–up yours”
Simon_Jester said, 7 months ago
ROFL!
Oh, now really, Captain Howdy
If you’re gonna drop done to that level, at least come up with something original.

Simon_Jester = Brain dead.
The Queen does not run Britain, is not required to pay taxes,and she does not use their National Health System. Yet she gets bailout every year from the British Tax-payers, at least the few who haven’t fled the crushing taxes. So why did the Great Impostor give her an IPod? Because HIS Ipod has taken the place of HIS brain.
WillBerry said, 7 months ago
BTW - The G-20 was a total disaster for the U.S. All The Great Impostor managed to do was agree to let EUROPE run OUR economy. Thanks to the constitution the real power to make international agreements is in the Senate. Hopefully saner heads will intervene there!
Simon_Jester said, 7 months ago
I gotta put up more posts like I did here Willberry. It’s not often that I send two neo-cons into hissy-fit land with one shot.
Unhless of course, you’re ANOTHER sockpuppet, which seems quite likely right about now, funk soul brotha’.
If you’re so upset about the US economy being run by a foreign power, why didn’t you protest when Bush cut taxes to the wealthy? Every time we do that we end up borrowing from abroad to make up the difference. In the 80’s, Japan owned us, and now it’s China.
And DON’T give that usual neo-con BS about how you were against Bush doing that. That’s what the neo-cons say NOW, but when I used to point out early in Bush’s term that he was putting us in hock to Beijing, the response I got from you guys was, “So what? We just won’t pay it back. What can they do to us?”
You want imposters?
Go check out a mirror.

WillBerry, the Queen DOES pay taxes now… she can thank Thatcher for causing that!

A nod to Hump (in his absence): Note the operative word in Stewzie’s post: “idiot.”

Marx and Lenin. Groucho Marx and John Lennon. I saw a t-shirt with that on it. Way cool.
