My colleague Damian Thompson appears to be under the impression that Obama is a great guy because he said nice things about the Queen. Look, I think the Queen’s great too, but did it really not occur to my distinguished colleague (and editor) that there might have been a hint of an ulterior motive here? Obama can’t stand Britain (his wife likes us even less): he made that clear enough when he sent back Winston Churchill’s bust and dissed our Prime Minister with those dodgy DVDS. He blames us for what happened to his grandfather during Mau Mau. He doesn’t believe in the Special Relationship. Are we honestly supposed to believe in that during the subsequent year in office, Obama has since acquired such wisdom and insight that he suddenly realises how special we are?
Of course he hasn’t. Obama is just doing now what all bullies and losers start doing when they realise how unpopular they are and that everyone is abandoning them. They suck up to anybody and everybody. They whore themselves piteously before enemies they once considered beneath their contempt. Fain will they fill their bellies with husks that swine eat – but which no man will give them: and serve them jolly well right, too!
By all means let us enjoy watching Obama smarm and grovel and ingratiate himself like some presidential Uriah Heep. But for heaven’s sake let us never give him the benefit of the doubt. He’s a cold fish and would certainly never show any mercy towards us were the roles to be reversed.
Disrupting the Borg is expensive and time consuming!

I thought you’d like Delingpole’s latest blog, he nails Blair and Obama. Each new presedent seems to hint that the ‘special relationship’ is over and then discovers they need our support and we’re best friends again. It goes back at least as far as Clinton. I’m dubious that Obama will ever overcome his dislike of the British. Fortunately DSK seems to be doing a lot to sour US French relations, so they’ll not be a candidate for BFF for a while.
I admire Delingpole’s writing. He wields his sarcastic knife as neatly and fastidiously as a gentleman surgeon.
Yup, his blog is always well attended, and the inevitable trolls are given a run for their money. You only have to see the comment figures to appreciate how popular this writer is, and how invariably correct his musings. He should be writing mainstream headlines, and bringing the nonsense to the attention of EVERYONE, not just blog-watchers. More strength to his elbow.
I could comment on this, but as a British subject I have no right to.
Why don’t you tell us what you really think.
🙂
I think that Obama cares about Obama, and nothing else.
Damn! It is nice to see in print the actual truth! Delingpole is outspoken, and the honesty is refreshing!
