George,

How come we don't hear about adult stem cell research and the cures that it has produced??

Did you get this from that call from Rahm Georgie?

PM Brown gave two symbolic gifts and one that expressed national pride. Brown came bearing a pen holder carved from the timbers of the sister ship of that which gave the wood to create the famous "Resolute Desk," the desk that has been in America's charge since 1880. He also gave Obama the framed commission for that famous ship, the HMS Resolute. His third gift was a seven-volume biography of one of England's greatest leaders, Winston Churchill
GUESS WHAT OUR OBUMA GAVE HIM
So, what did President Obama give the British PM? 25 movies on DVD. Yeah, that's it. Brown gives a symbolic gift like the pen holder fashioned from a famous British warship and Obama responds by sending a staffer to WalMart to pick up a few quick movies.

The entire British press is up in arms. Many in Britain are seeing this as entirely gauche and indicative of the low esteem in which the Obama's hold England.

Worse, no one is 100% sure that Obama was smart enough to know that DVDs made in America don't play on European DVD players. American DVDs are created in the "Region One" format while those in Europe play in "Region Two" format. A U.S. DVD just won't play on a machine made for the English market.

Not to be out done in tastelessness by her husband, Michelle got into the act, too. Mrs. Brown came bearing two outfits for the Obama girls from Topshop, one of Britain's trendiest and expensive women's wear retail outlets.

In return, Michelle apparently had a staffer run down to the White House gift shop and grab two toy Marine One helicopter models for the Brown's boys

If people expect President Obama to get things done, look at the republican party. They are waiting like sharks to tear into Obama's nominations for positions. It is pathetic how the GOP who have brought America nothing but great harm these last eight years, think they will improve their lot if they continue to ruin our country. These people are no-good unpatriotic saps who don't deserve to be in our government.

With the nominee track record so far I would say that we should look even closer at these folks. Do you want cheats in charge of your money?? Democrats! can't live with them .........

Please let this comment stand. Thank you.

David Reyes, you've belabored the point about the British PM and his presents by posting the same comment on multiple threads.

Mr. Brown was much more understanding of the fact that the neither President nor Mrs. Obama were expecting an exchange of gifts (This is typically done only by heads of state, which, in the case of the UK, would be the monarch) and so the Obama's were ill-prepared to reciprocate, having virtually no prior notice.

As for the British press, they are largely a bunch of tabloids that get riled up for weeks on end about Posh Spice's shopping sprees. The more respected broadsheets realize that the Prime Minister and President Obama had more serious matters to discuss than CD's or pen holders.

H.M.,

Thank you! You took the words right out of my mouth. The 'panties in a bunch' crew gets off on some silly mess, don't they?! Oddly, they never notice that nobody else cares about such nonsense. We'd prefer to have the treasury department staffed.

We got no lobbist ,We got no lobbyer, We got an unemployed ex-lobbist, So see the stimulus works. See Obama is the best he will make the grass sprout soon you will see. Already the sun rises earlier to greet him, he has power he won the election.

I emailed GS and informed ABC that I found articles that said H.Rodgin Cohen and his firm were in a law suit accusing of Sexual harassment of a gay associate.

If you go to Above the Law and put his name in you can read for yourself.
