Okay. I am officially jealous. Obama will meet the Queen.
A source said: “There is a wish to do these things as discreetly as possible in the first instance.”
President Obama, famed for his Yes We Can slogan, will fly with wife Michelle on Air Force One to Stansted, Essex.
The private talks will be held the next day at Buckingham Palace.
Mr Obama will then join the G20 leaders for a Downing Street dinner on the eve of the summit on April 2.
Last night it emerged he gave Gordon Brown 25 top US movies as a gift after talks in the US.
Mr Brown’s wife Sarah gave Mr Obama’s two daughters Topshop outfits. And the First Lady gave Mr Brown’s two boys toy helicopters.

That is just uncouth.
Okay as a curator let me say that it was NOT Obama's place to return the bust. IMO it is the property of the White House archives and artifacts. Or he could have sent it to the Bush II Presidential Library when it opens. I am not certain when we got the bust was this while Bush was POTUS or before. He could have sent it to the Smithsonian, the Library of Congress...

It sounds like a permanent loan.
In museums we often receive permanent loans when we recieve a gift from another collection but for whatever reason the collection's deed of gift says that no item shall ever be deaccessioned. Clearly this is supported by teh bust being moved down the street rather than back to the UK.

GW was a Churchill fan
The bust was loaned to GW
GW ia back in Texas
BHO returned the loaned gift
BHO has a Lincoln bust in it's place
You left out the part where it was offered to Obama for four years and he rejected it.

WASHINGTON -- Senate Banking Committee Chairman Christopher Dodd is moving to allow the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. to temporarily borrow as much as $500 billion from the Treasury Department.

Because it was not in the British press link I posted. So now we have a problem that Obama preferred a bust of Lincoln to one of Churchill in his own office ? The Commie bastard. /s I'll google for the offer, but I still see no problem with BHO picking a American icon over a British one. Now if he'd pulled a Lincoln bust for one of Churchill, I might have a issue.

Will that little scam artiste who used to rip off tourists by selling phony baloney Cable Car tickets be prancing around Ghirardelli Square while Charles is being publicly flogged (And then frog-marched through the square!)? If so, someone should point out that miscreant jerk and holler: "You're busted!"
Of course, one advantage, if that, is that finally we'll be able to see Zombie in all Zombie's glory. Pity that that mystery shall be no more!

After people like Rice and Powell, we end up with one who is going to move the recession into the next Great Depression, while getting his friends rich. No, not poor people. The dead beat not paying taxes democraps, the unions, who are just another level of management, and other useless social programs. The poor will get worse. They are going to regret having him around. I have worked with unions. Where the union officials were fat cats. And if you were a hard worker, you got the same pay as the gut who slept in the warehouse but were the first out the door a quiting time, but were 'buddies' with the union reps. They deserve a real leader, not a leftist hack.

Charles ,
For someone to rail on about other people riding a bicycle for sport is really stupid for starters , but I can still see little reason for you to complain even about someone else when they do this .
When I started reading your blog some 6 years ago I became glued to it due to your impassioned protests against religious fanaticism , mainly the jihadists .
I dunno what religion Meryl practices , but in the end it's all the same difference, all religious organisations have their aspects of fanaticism .
To believe or not believe is not the question , rather allowing for everyman a freedom of personal choice in their beliefs is .

We have this thing called a sarc tag (see Charles' main post, above). It lets people know when you're being funny.

Meryl is not a clown. She's a founding mother of the neo-con blogosphere. Admittedly she was more influential in 2002 than she is now, but that's the fault of a feckless American public and not a fault in her site.

I don't think it has sunk in yet with black professionals that BHO might be the problem, not the solution. But it has sunk in that we're in a "great depression". I first heard that phrase last month from a black project manager at a chemical site; they're scaling back orders heavily.
