RSSBarack Obama, the Blockbuster President … Obama Gives British PM Gordon Brown CD’s
Barack Obama … The Blockbuster President … The Gift that Keeps on Giving.
WOW!!! The following Presidential gift gaffe provides just another peek into the reality that Barack Obama is way over his head and he just does not understand or comprehend the enormity of the office he holds. The following WTF moment is brought to you by the Obamamessiah, the Gift giver and Chief.
(Hat Tip Pic: Red State: Obama getting the PM’s gift, after all it is the thought that counts)
More change you can believe in and this one is truly low rent. For the past 8 years Democrats were worried about American’s image in the world, they may want to continue that same thought with Obama at the helm. It is the thought that counts and it would have been nice and respectable if some thought was actually used. Please, stop making excuses for Obama and call a an ignorant gaffe for what it is. It would more so appear that the gift exchange from the Obama’s was a last second forgotten event and a rush to the local Blockbuster and the White House store.
When giving a gift, it is the thought that counts which makes it all the more puzzling as to what the hell Barack Obama was thinking when we gave British Prime Minister Gordon Brown a basket of CD’s. PM Brown bestowed upon Barack Obama an ornamental pen holder made from the timbers of the Victorian anti-slave ship HMS Gannet. A pretty thoughtful gift one would say,
The unique present delighted Mr Obama because oak from the Gannet’s sister ship, HMS Resolute, was carved to make a desk that has sat in the Oval Office in the White House since 1880.
Mr Brown also handed over a framed commission for HMS Resolute and a first edition of the seven-volume biography of Churchill by Sir Martin Gilbert.
In addition, Mr Brown and his wife showered gifts on the Obama children giving Sasha and Malia an outfit each from Topshop and six children’s books by British authors which are shortly to be published in America.
What did the British PM and his wife receive in return from the Obama’s? The Obama’s gave the Browns two models of the presidential helicopter, Marine One, to give to their sons and hold the phone, a basket of CD’s of American made films like The God Father, Star Wars, Gone With the Wind and so on. Good grief. What’s in store for the French President upon his visit to the White House a set of Ginsu knives and a Ronco Vegematic?
It is never the price of the gift that counts, it is the thought. I wonder how the US Obama carrying media would have reacted if Brown gave Obama as a gift, The Best of Benny Hill?
Remember when Defense Secretary Robert Gates said that Barack Obama was more analytical than GWB. You mean he actually analyzed that a box set of CD’s was a good idea?

Do you think that someone, somewhere in the Obama staff could have said … Hey Dude … Ah Chosen One … this might not be the best choice of gift?
Maybe it won out over the Cheese Log or the 3 year old fruit cake.
R
So much for protocol and having one chance to make a first impression.
And they called Bush a cowboy … what might we call this?
Aw, come on, give O a break. He hasn’t been getting enough rest you know. Being President is a lot harder than being a community organizer.
Besides, it was Michelle who chose the gift (under the bus she goes).
Perhaps we should all get together and send the Prime Minister our favorite movies. After all, Europe’s so backwards it probably doesn’t have movie theaters.
The Prime Minister should of given obongo and his wife a tube of Preparation H in return !!! At least that gift would of been useful !!!
lol@katablog…nice
(europe remark)
at least he gave decent movies, could have also included Porky’s (although part 1 was really funny)
I wonder how far the CD’s got before they were dumped in the trash? Not even new releases, tsk, tsk.
Models of Marine 1 ? What happens if they get stolen by evil doers? Better order a new chopper!
In Obamas defense, what do you give a countries leader that used to own us but we “b” slapped them back across the pond? Oh, I know! Give them their country back! I do believe they are working on that as we speak.
What they give Ms. Brown a ped egg and hair wax?
Why don’t he give Browns kids a swing set in the middle of bitter freezing-ass cold February that they will use once for the cameras and be forgotten by summer ’cause nothing sez money to burn better than that!
i doubt the prime minister listens to gangsta rap about hos’, guns, and drugs.
One Word About the One: ROOKIE
To be expected from such an amatuerish and narcissistic crew.
“Porky’s” LOFL!
I just heard the comment Barack made to the pilot as he steps out of Marine 1 in the above picture. “Get me a new chopper, this one smells like bush.”
Obama is a dou(edit) bag. He is so arrogant he gives the guy CD and DVD’s!?! Huh? What?
If I were that guy I would have dropped my pants and dropped a deuce on that gift right in front of his socialist face!
I always like coming here daily to see what our President did wrong. Now he gave a gift, oh my god. Please impeach him. How dare he. Do you people just grab for straws.
i doubt the prime minister listens to gangsta rap about hos’, guns, and drugs.
Super Dave, but he does. He even thinks that
fags should be allowed to marry!
Gordon Brown is IN DA HOOOOOOOWZZZZE!
WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Should have listened to Vince and gone
with the “SLAP CHOP” and the “GRATY.”
You’re gonna love my nuts!
Greetings:
I heard that President Obama gave a similar set to Stevie Wonder when the latter entertained at the White House.
we grab for anything we can scrape, scratch, claw to road block barry boy.
No doofus it isn’t grapsing at straws…we are just doing what you liberal nutbag wackos did to Bush for 8 years. If this had been Bush giving this type of cheap-ass gift, the media and the ALL CRAZY LEFT would have been ALL over him so spare me the crybaby “grasping at straws” bullshit!
Just like with Rush, back in 2006 Dems were polled and ALL wanted Bush to fail so F U you liberal, one-way, closed-minded jerk off liberal tree-banging dems!
BrightSide: I suppose it could always have been worse. At least it wasn’t DVD’s of “I’m Gonna Git You Sucka” and “Snakes On A Plane”
At least it was a DVD not a VHS
instead of boys in da hood he got boy in da white house.
LOL Dugga!

Wow i really wanna make a “Shaft” joke but it looks like Obama has already.
You DO know that CDs contain music and DVDs contain video content, right? And as such, none of those movies were on “CDs”?
And if Brown actually cares even a little bit about the quality or cost of the gift he was given by President Obama, he has way too much time on his hand.
on september 25, 2008 michael symonette, a leader of the blacks against obama group was shot and survived the assisination attempt by one taytreon edwards, an obama hit man.
edwards was overheard shouting ” where is the dude that obama wants dead”?
also edwards was armed with an ar15 automatic weapon. this shows you what kind of president that the democrat terrorists have running our country !
wow, I heard he left the price tags on. O well no need for a gift reciept now!

Ya see Obama, planning ahead is so simple, even a monkey can do it!
Makes one wonder what he could do with a Barak-berry.
the white house has a protocol office that should have made all the arrangements for brown’s arrival and the gifts. wonder if they were all on vacation that week.

Glenn Beck has suggested that Americans who are offended by our President’s indifference and disrespect for the British and Prime Minister Brown write a letter (the old fashioned kind, with a stamp and everything) to the British Embassy, 3100 Massachusetts Ave NW, Washington, D.C. 20008
#8 – more words to describe the “one”:
Unfit for duty!
Not a naturalized born citizen of the US!
Pathetic, ignorant, irresponsible, NO experience, etc., etc.,…
I would imagine that taxpayers pay for these gifts. What gift shows up on the receipts for reimbursement/expense form? Maybe someone got confused. mo
Wow, this is just embarrassing! Suppose the Prime Minister doesn’t like those movies? At least he could have given him a Walmart gift card!
I’ll bet Obama was disappointed he didn’t get a complete set of Dr. Who.
what kind of movies would Bush have given Gordon?
the one with Gibson (US revolution)?
American werewolf in London?
_______________
SM: How many times did GWB meet with Tony Blair? Many. The answer to your question is GWB never was ignorant enough to give such a gift. Don’t use a hypothetical when the man served 8 years and never did such a thing.
R
Well if Obama was going to give CD’s I am a bit shocked he did not include the movie REDS.
Nothing like an uplifing communist moview for the flight home.
hehehe
it was kinda a serious question:
what movies would Bush have given.
(no, not much class in a gift like this…wtf were his aides thinking)
________
SM: Ok, gotcha … there would only be one movie …
Texas Chainsaw Massacre

american werewolf in london is by far the best werewolf movie out there. totally awesome. too bad they’re not real.
the boy president’s own criminal gang is turning
on him more every week. obammy’s stimulus is riddled with lies and deception. the cubans caught it right away.
obammy’s ideas are lies, deceit,racism,socialism,power,money,greed,destruction,muslim,evil. a good headlock take down triangle choke would be a good remedy for the boy.
Dave, why do you want Obama to fail?
btw, did you see US ww in Paris? (London was better, saw that when I was about 4, freaked me out)
I have heard that the DVD’s given were Region 1 DVD’s, which are only playable in Canada and the US, instead of Region 2 which are for European DVD devices.
Damn! They couldn’t even figure THAT out!
nurturer, that would be so stupid..it becomes funny again.
btw, that whole region stuff is BS
And, yet, you idiots would be complaining had he spent thousands….while we are in a recession. Never happy. Lol.
#40, You do however have to play cd’s and dvd’s backwards when south of the equador.
PS, still chuckling over the porky’s comment, good one!
#33, maybe he is saving that for when he visits Chavez.
#41, I would rather he not be courting somebody with a socialist world agenda but if he is, please don’t embarrass our country with a low rent regift.
Please, if it takes thousands to send the message that he wants than whatever. It isn’t as bad as the other BS he is spending money on. Rebuilding New Orleans? OMFG, there are people in Homstead, FL that are still paying for property that used to be their home hoping that they can rebuild someday. That hurricane was 1991 and second by a hair in cost to Katrina.
The Obama’s are clowns….lol
You people who keep defending the ass clowns known as the Obama administration are the one’s that are idiots. It would be much better for them to have spent a few thousands dollars on some nice gifts than those lame ass gifts that you would give to a niece & nephew. It certainly would be better to spend the money on nice gifts to our allies rather than throwing parties every week on taxpayers money. The whole Obama administration are complete failures. What a joke. How can you keep defending these people? This is absurd. The man is in over his head. What a moron.
i don’t want obama to fail. i want him to be a President, not a dictator, not a socialist, not a communist, not a muslim, and most of all i want him to be a US citizen which he cannot prove. i don’t care if the president is a tri color mutt as long as his main concern is the US.
i don’t trust obi wan as far as i could kick his high yellow ass.
President Obama lifted the ban on federal funds for embryonic stem cell research – is that a complete failure #45?
Sufferers of spinal cord injury, diabetes, alzheimer’s, parkinsons, blindness, brain injuries etc.. are cheering at the top of their lungs that science will no longer be held back by hypocritical zealots.
lol…he forgot the dvd of “The Shakiest Gun in the West” starring Don Knotts aka Barney Fife..
#47 Yes it is a failure. It is a sad day when the federal government will fund research that exploits living members of the human species as raw material for research. To create human embryos for the sole purpose of research is disgusting. I don’t want my tax dollars being used to destroy human embryos for the sake of research. Why should we fund Scientist trying to play GOD?
#40 – Dolf, if you’re saying that DVD regions are ridiculous, then we agree. If I want to give a gift of a DVD to a friend in Mexico or South America, they can’t watch it because their DVD region is 4. Anyway, it’s something to ponder when giving DVD’s gifts internationally.
#49 – figured as much…you do enjoy a little Socialism now don’t you?
Religious fundamentalist wingnuts such as yourself turn into “Socialists” when it comes to meddling into the personal and sexual lives of everyone else, whether or not they share the same religious beliefs.
It is very encouraging to see the government removing religion from its 8 year stranglehold on scientific health research.
He’s a great one – the Catholic demagogues who want you and your loved ones to suffer because of their fear and ignorance concerning stem cell research are the same ones who excommunicated a mother and her doctors in Brazil after they aborted the twin fetuses of her 9-year-old daughter who was raped by her stepfather. Interestingly, the stepfather wasn’t excommunicated but the mother and abortion providers were because they saved the life of this 9-year-old girl.
There’s your “ethical committment and compassion for life” straight from the Vatican.
Maybe there is a pill to cure people from religious hypocrisy? You wouldn’t take it though #49 – you’d rather believe in talking snakes…’cause that makes sense. Lol.
#51 Yeah…You are so right….Gosh you are smart….You know everything…..
You are so comical.
I’m pro-life. I don’t see a problem with that. How is that socialist? I don’t agree with funding it. I’m against killing innocent babies for the sake of science or because it may be an inconvenience for someone. People need to take responsibility for their actions. Getting rapped is not an excuse for murder. BTW, I’m not Catholic. Maybe there is a pill for ignorant people such as yourself.
Stem cell research isn’t the cure for anything.
#52 – Lol. The stupid sure did come out of ya on that one.
You seem to be suggesting that a blastocyst = child = person with full rights and protections under the law. So I have to ask: #52, in your vision of a perfect world, should women who miscarry be investigated criminally? After all, they could have murdered their child. In cases of implantation failure, has the blastocyst been murdered, neglected, or did it commit suicide?
What about the in-vitro clinics that throw away “babies” every day in the biohazard waste?
You want a 9 year old who was raped to carry 2 babies to term – that’s all anyone needed to see…you are a sick.
#52 – You really need to step out of the medieval religious stupor your in that you call morality.
Call it what you will its still the start of a human life. Your fancy clinical names can not cover up what it truly is.I guess it sounds better to you to say the embro was thrown in the trash instead of the baby. it helps to elevate some of the guilt.Another person started out 60 yrs ago just like you, you may remember him he didn’t think old young black jews or anyone else was important either nothing mattered but his ideas and ideals try not to play God. Some one may try to harvest your grandkids one day
#50: 100%
#52 – Lol. The stupid sure did come out of ya on that one. Really? What’s stupid about my post?
You seem to be suggesting that a blastocyst = child = person with full rights and protections under the law.
It is the beginning of a human, so yes it is murder.
So I have to ask: #52, in your vision of a perfect world, should women who miscarry be investigated criminally? After all, they could have murdered their child.

What about the in-vitro clinics that throw away “babies” every day in the biohazard waste?
Yes, those are babies, it’s murder. I’m talking deliberate action to destroy a living being. That includes an embryo. That includes babies born or aborted. I’m not talking about acts of nature. I’m talking about deliberately destroying a living being.
You want a 9 year old who was raped to carry 2 babies to term – that’s all anyone needed to see…you are a sick.
No, I’m not sick. The person who raped the 9 year old and got her pregnant is sick. Why should the innocent babies be murdered? I’m sure there is someone who could take care of them. Who decides who lives or dies? You? Doctors?
#52 – You really need to step out of the medieval religious stupor your in that you call morality.
I really don’t care what you think of my beliefs. Murder of innocent babies is wrong and if you can sleep at night knowing that this is going on in our country everyday then more power to you.
Maybe you need to watch some of this videos about what happens during abortion? It’s murder, plain & simple.
