President Obama on the line: PM wins coveted first chat Brown wins first chat with Obama The prime minister last night won one of the most hotly contested diplomatic races of the year when he became the first European leader to speak to Barack Obama since the president's inauguration on Tuesday. The Anglo-American special relationship was marked in a 15-minute telephone call, described as friendly and constructive, in which Gordon Brown and Obama discussed the economy, the Middle East, Zimbabwe and life in the White House. www.guardian.co.uk/world/2009/jan/24/barack-obama-gordon-brownSorry, but that's NOT good news in my opinion! Brown was the first 'leader' to speak to Obama?  Come On!!!  |

Here are your instructions, Blair.
It's Brown, sir.
What is?
That's my name. Gordon Brown.
They told me it was Blair.
Blair was the last one before me.
Wait a minute, I'm confused. When was the election you won?
I didn't actually win one. When Tony left I just took over.
You weren't elected?
No, sir.
I was. I'm the first black president. I'm historical. Obama Barack. People love me.
I know that, sir. Even hankies love you.
What's a hankie?
A white person, sir.
That's honky, you idiot. No wonder you didn't get elected.

No wonder you didn't get elected. That makes Obama look like an idiot. I'm sure he actually knows we don't have presidential elections in the UK. |

So was Gay Mandy, but he's not PM. If something's going to be funny, it has to be sort of true, not just a load of blox. Mandy was not elected to his present position in Parliament, nor the one he was in before that at the Commission. |

Bertrus adds comedy to the long list of subjects about which he clearly knows nothing but on which he feels competent to offer a definitve opinion. It's like John Prescott producing an exercise DVD.

I wonder if Obama thanked Clunk for saving the world. He will probably get a run in Air Force One and a presidential lollipop.
