There are two ways to look at this.

1 - That President Obama is incompetent, classless, and lacking in international decorum, or

2 - That President Obama intentionally acted in a way to show that his administation doesn't give a S__T about Great Britain.

I don't know which answer is correct, but either way - we have a problem.

Assuming President Obama is not incompetent and this his actions were intentional, we must ask the question, WHY? Great Britain has been our most loyal ally. The way Prime Minister Brown was treated was worse that had he been our most hated enemy.
