I think you're entirely right. This followed on the heels of returning the Churchill bust.

Obama's gift was intended to insult...Make no mistake about it. O laid down a new cheapened protocol for our best friend...I am convinced this insult was ordained from the top. To cut old ties, we must first separate ourselves from respected old relationships...I would label this, politics at its worst, and usurpation at its worst. I'm in complete agreement, uncle. The British press has been filled with stories about how Obama and his people arbitrarily downgraded the importance of the meeting. The U.S. has no better friend than Great Britain. Somewhere down the line, there will be a price to pay for this premeditated insult.
