Why would I (a British citizen) give a solitary **** about what gift Obama gives Brown?
It's an article in the Mail, as such it is not fit enough for toilet paper, let alone reading.

I know you.

Misleading thread title..

Obamas OK in my book.

Brown should recognise that the Star Wars boxset is not to be sniffed at.

This boxset was specifically produced for the gift. It is a very nice gift. I'd be glad to have it if Brown doesn't think it's good enough for him.

hmm I think I deserve it more than all of u muhahaha...sorry I just like star wars

Totally agree, British Tabloids just write what they want and some fools actually believe them and this sort of discussion starts.

Obama definitely sucks at buying gifts. I'm not saying dvd's are a bad gift but choosing some of the most well known movies that are most likely already apart of any collectors library just shows laziness. Come on now...,Star Wars, Raging Bull, Citizen Kane and the Grapes of Wrath? There isn't even a theme going on there.

I think he forgot that he was supposed to buy a gift and when he was presented with a priceless document, he told the PM that his gift was in another room and excused himself to go retrieve it. The only things he had to choose from were items from the gift shop or movies he never got around to opening.

I don't know why the PM made such a big deal, though. Aren't the Brits supposed to be all sophistimacated and shit?

Hey, not all Brits are sophisticated, but majorty are very very polite and well manared. Its just how you're brought up. Sophistimaticatialtiation is not seen in many.

Anywho, I doubt anyone is ''pissed'' at Obama cos of the gift. I think everyone is more pissed at Brown for giving away something that probably cost ridiculous amount of money.

According to the article he had this box set prepared a month in advance for the sole purpose of giving it as a gift.

According to the opening post, we're supposed to be.

I didn't even know this happened until i read this thread. Must be bigger news state side than here.

I thought this would be something important.

Obama put cyanide in a cup of tea.

The ultimate insult.

Maybe I'm just looking too deep into this...but maybe...just maybe... the gifts were a form of sarcasm.

Obama gives the gift to show Gordon that Americans are superior when it comes to movies....then Gordon turns around and gives him a reminder of when the Europeans had blacks in chains....

...hmm

I agree, it is a nice prezzie. However as you said, it is probably very expencive. It just was not necessary, considering the present he got back.

It's the thought that counts!

Hahaha, would be a pretty good sense of humor on Brown's part.

Maybe the British should worry about how their country and culture are getting ravaged and destroyed.
