So last February Obama returned to the British the statue of Winston Churchill which had been in the White House since England sent it over after 9/11. It was a loan, apparently, but they did not ask for it to be returned.
When Obama sent it back, the British were, according to reports, "non-plussed" and protested it did not need to be returned. Obama said something like thanks but no thanks, we don't need it.
He has replaced the Churchill statue, say stories, with one of Lincoln.
Okay. I love Lincoln, too. But I think it's . . . can't think of a better word than stupid . . . stupid to get rid of the the Churchill statue, and offensive to our English friends. Yeah, take it all around, stupid.
