Someone in the White House needs to devote some time to the diplomacy of gift giving. This is embarrassing:

The White House has the most accomplished, thoughtful, and professional protocol division in the world. It is duplicated at our department of State.

This was the highest level meeting possible with our most sincerest ally. Obama's gift was intended to insult. He gets away with it because who at that level would complain?

Make no mistake about it. O laid down a new cheapened protocol for our best friend. Radicals seldom seek friends, they seek power and money. The UK is broke.

The WH protocol division did not screw up. I am convinced of this. The insult was ordained from the top. To change our own government we must cut old ties, old relationships, and dump allies. We must first separate ourselves from respected old relationships.

I would label this, politics at its worst, and usurpation at its worst.
