A tantalizing review of "The One's" trip to Europe

From Charles Krauthammer, the best review of Obama's trip to Europe so far. If Bush had performed this poorly to an international audience the left would be aghast at the embarrassment that tasteless rube had brought down upon us.

I'm not against gift-giving in international relations. But it would be nice to see some reciprocity. Obama was in a giving mood throughout Europe. While Gordon Brown was trying to make his American DVDs work and the queen was rocking to her new iPod, the rest of Europe was enjoying a more fulsome Obama gift.

But of course Obama's duck like back attracts none of that water, especially since the media is willing to carry all the water they can for him.

Read the whole thing.

I saw you posting on your laptop from my view at the kitchen sink and wondered what it was. Love you.
