Family Security Matters » Publications » Farewell to Britain: "The British press has offered several face-saving explanations for these serial rudenesses. Perhaps Obama is 'exhausted.' Alternatively, he is simply 'focused elsewhere' in the midst of cratering capital markets, collapsing automakers and skyrocketing unemployment.
The real answer, however, was supplied by an unnamed State Department official whom London's Sunday Telegraph reported on March 8th 'reacted with fury' when asked by the paper why the Brown visit was so, er, 'low-key.' According to the Telegraph: 'The official dismissed any notion of the special relationship. ‘There's nothing special about Britain. You're just the same as the other 190 countries in the world. You shouldn't expect special treatment.''"
Great job ... destroying our long time friendships in a matter of weeks.
