Perhaps a model of the AC Cobra with an Official Shelby 427 engine ( Shelby Cobra)might have been a more appropriate gift.

Something that demonstrated how America can always make anything better than anyone else on earth can. Maybe a Corvette might be a good one too.

The original Cobras were built in England (AC was an English company), and the engines were installed in the US. A Cobra might be a better representation of what the US and England can do when working together.

Hey, I could care less what OBambam decides to give the ol' skinflint as a present, but I'm sure there's some story behind the selection. Maybe it included recordings of his top ten all time greatest speeches. Famously stingy and cheap, the Queen may well have appreciated the thriftyness of the gesture; that is, after rifling through the package to see if the batteries were included or whether she got stiffed and has to buy her own.

Talking Interesting contrast to how the Kennedys, Reagans, et al....

.....greeted the Queen. I especially liked his groping arm----ditto the First B*tch. Truly a class act. IPod-----Omigawd! Why not some sneakers or sompin'?! Krikeys.

Buzz,
Here I thought you were kidding around about that Ghetto Fabulous Socialist Piece of Chit actually being of such no class to do that.

He did.
