Remember in 2012, when Romney made a complete arse of himself in England?

What's up with these Republicans always embarrassing us and offending our British allies? Seems to be recurring theme during presidential election cycles.

Default Obama has done a Great Job and he is President.

Obama gas don a good job in insulting the Queen with a IPod and has not supported the UK fully.

When is the Democrats quite embarrassing America with Lead from behind.

Let me remind you Walker is not President Yet. As for the comment it will show up on some electronic story. These things always do. ( Hot Mic Obama and Bidden )

Of course Cameron is going to not speak Ill of a US President!

Yeah, remember that time when the Brits had their noses out of joint because Obama said France was the BFF of the US? Some of us were shocked, too.

Then there was the Falklands (from a UK paper, 3 years ago):

"If ever you wanted an insight into the actual state of UK relations with the Obama administration, then look no further than this State Department response to a question over whether the US will respect the results of the proposed referendum on the Falkland Islands. We will not speculate on a referendum that has not taken place. Our position remains one of neutrality. The United States recognizes de facto UK administration of the islands, but takes no position regarding the sovereignty claims of either party. The US Government supports UK and Argentine cooperation on practical matters and urges a peaceful resolution to the overall issue. No need to even read between the lines there: so much for loyalty, so much for friendship, so much for us sticking with America in its massively unpopular war in Iraq, even when they ignored us (at terrible cost in human lives) about the need for proper post-invasion planning. That brutally tepid answer is a perfect illustration of what British diplomats complain bitterly is the coldly “transactional” nature of the US-UK relationship with the Obama White House, which is run by a tight-knit cabal that sees little reason to pander to little Britain in a new world order. And if the Obama administration thinks this isn’t causing real bitterness in the UK diplomatic corps, it should think again. They are fuming."

The Falklands dispute lays bare the damage that Barack Obama has done to the not-so-special US-UK relationship – Telegraph Blogs

2010:

"Cameron warns Obama over criticising BP
Leaders try to defuse transatlantic row in 30-minute call, but tensions remain. Jane Merrick, David Usborne, Mark Leftly and Simon Evans report. David Cameron last night issued a veiled warning to President Barack Obama not to undermine BP's "economic importance" to Britain and the United States, as the two men held crisis talks over the Gulf of Mexico oil spill disaster."

Cameron Warns Obama Over Criticising Bp - Foreign Affairs - Nigeria

You have to go to the foreign sites because of the US media's slobbering love affair with Obama.

Walker has a problem that is becoming rather evident. Walker is a pathetic liar.

No candidate for president should reveal to the press what another foreign leader has said. Assume it to be in confidence. Neither political party nor their operatives have an edge in honesty.

If what Walker said is true, he's a pathetic little man for saying it. If it's not, smart call on him. Most Americans aren't going to follow through to see what Cameron's views are.

Either way, not a very presidential move Mr. Walker.

Dave Cameron is very close friends with Obama. So Cameron said no such thing.

I'm also surprised no one caught my typo in the title. LOL

You are trying to project the faults of Barack Obama onto Scott Walker. Good luck with that.
