Well, at least one Euro was unimpressed with Barry’s first around-the-world whirl, to say the least:

"So The One retired triumphant, having secured a massive contribution of 5,000 extra troops – all of them non-combatant, of course – which must really have put the wind up the Taliban, at the prospect of 5,000 more infidel cooks and bottle-washers swarming into the less hazardous regions of Afghanistan."

Not to mention his brilliant, mid-tour non-response to the North Korean missile launch: 

"President Pantywaist is hopping mad and he has a strategy to cut Kim down to size: he is going to slice $1.4bn off America’s missile defence programme, presumably on the calculation that Kim would feel it unsporting to hit a sitting duck, so that will spoil his fun."

Well, we already knew Barry was President Thin-skin and all that goes with that little defect. But it’s nice to read some news about him for a change. Only odd that we have to go across the pond for it.
