And you can bet that if she came to the US to visit NObama and his America hating wife, She wouldnt be bringing some perfuctory gift you can buy at wallmart
a) any president we send will have scandals - they are all politicians. CindyM on drugs would be pretty bad. Or McCain losing his cool and calling his wife names would not be classy either.
b) queens has no scandals? Just ask the tabloids there - even if 10% of the stories are right, that is pretty bad
c) I still think we should not give an i-pod to one of the biggest handout recipients in the world. We should give her nothing.

Considering that UK is loving the first Lady.

And i think it was cool that Obama gave the Queen an Ipod...

Funny the neo-cons talk about classless representation when they don't even follow the Geneva Convention.

And as long as NObama continues the democrat tradition of apeasement and capitulation, they will continue to like OBama.

Are you ashamed of American consumerism or something? Can't think of a more American gift than an Ipod or a Hummer.

She asked then not to.

Prince Charles is an avid organic gardener for 15 years and keeps her well supplied.

They are representing the US just fine. There is little chance that he could do worse than George W Bush.. believe me.
That's true.

He didn't come in rip roaring drunk and try to feel up the Old Girl like Bush did with Chancellor Merkel at the G8.

He also didn't barf on the Japanese P.M. like Bush 41 did.
