    Britain is one of our oldest and most trusted allies. Brown brought with him a gift of a pen holder, carved from the timbers of HMS Gannet, built in Chatham shipyards 130 years ago. Timber from its sister vessel, HMS Resolute, was used in the Oval Office desk. Downing Street said the gift was designed to symbolise "historic ties" between the two nations. What did President Obama present to England? A bunch of CD's that could have been purchased at Wal-Mart. Way to go Obama. I suppose you didn't include a DVD player did you? Different country, different format.

    So much for his learning on the job. Has anyone else realized the terrible choice he was? At least he's making VP Biden look better and Jimmy Carter is no longer the worst president ever.
