Gift Exchange between Prime Minister and President

U.S. President Barack Obama has just returned from meeting with Prime Minister Gordon Brown. The two met to discuss world affairs and also exchanged thoughtful gifts....well...I don't know how the Prime Minister felt about his gift from Obama but if I received the following from our President, I would find it to be the most down to earth, meaningful gift I could receive from an American President.

Prime Minister's gift to President Obama: an ornamental pen holder made from the timbers of the Victorian anti-slave ship HMS Gannet. In addition, a framed commission for HMS Resolute and a first edition of the seven-volume biography of Churchill by Sir Martin Gilbert.

President Obama's gift to the Prime Minister: A 25 disc boxed set of classic American DVDs.

I retrieved this story from the UK press website "The Daily Mail" 

And let's just say the majority of the UK is not too pleased with the President's gift of sentiment (I am not bein

g sarcastic). The title of the article is "To my special friend Gordon, 25 DVDs: Obama gives Brown a set of clas

sic movies. Let's hope he likes the Wizard of Oz"

Below are the list of movies in the DVD Gift Collection:

I still think it's a cool gift.

The End.
