Well, I can tell you that the British media is covering it a bit more prominently - can't wait to see some headlines tomorrow...

It is pretty insulting tbh. It's just a general two fingers to our whole country. I felt negative vibes from Obama (towards the UK) as soon as he was elected. I read somewhere he hasn't forgiven us for the whole 'slavery' thing. I mean, it's not like it was over a hundred years (and then some) ago and we apologised and have gone on to fight alongside them in World wars and iraq.

At this rate I'm beginning to wonder if Obama will even make it through his first year. I mean we're only a couple of months in and he's already screwing up and making mistakes and the media has begun to turn on him. It's only a matter of time before the people realize what a dope he his.

Is there a news article link? One that actually tells us the details of what happened instead of this idiot just saying "holy crap how stupid are they, can you believe it!?" Not saying it didn't happen, I'd just like some context... And man this guy is a blowhard.

Thats Glenn Beck, anything he discusses as legit. He is a right wing political talk show host. He isnt that bad, perfer most of the others, but he does bring up good points. You should really watch that video to the part where he has his guest. It is really informative to what the whole issue is and all.

Oh my god, he sent someone some bad DVDs, or so say Fox News! Obama is done for!!! Oh wait, didn't you constantly hate on Obama before? How can I even take you seriously?

I'd like a bit more information first, but ehh, what can you do.

I just scoured BBC for coverage on this and there's nothing there. The chances of this being real/ not taken out of context are getting real slim.

It clearly happened.

Have you been watching any news? Politicians aren't happy how Obama is handling the economy, not happy at all.

But then again, you're a moderator on a video game site, what does it matter to you.

Obama is handling the economy as well as he can except for the people standing in the way of the spending. Blowing shitloads of money is a bad idea EXCEPT for when the country is about to fall into the second great depression. Then its the BEST idea.

Of course those politicians you speak of got it all backwards. Spent lots of money on useless wars and such... then when our economy collapses they suddenly want to stop spending? They should know better.

Of course I've been watching news. And it shouldn't surprise you that some politicians don't like Obama's ideas. I'd be frightened if his plans weren't met with at least some opposition. People have a lot of differing opinions, and that's what America is about. Just because some people disagree with Obama's policies doesn't make them bad.

And if you're going to take cheap shots at people, at least get it right.
