It gets worse!

Obama has to specify, through his ambassador that he didn't mean national offense, after his comments caused anger "among many business people and pensioners in the UK", not to mention Davey, when he used the term "British Petroleum". This brings up a lovely picture of old geezers in tweed sitting on park benches, getting their caps in a twist. What does BP stand for, for fuck's sake, bloody poms? It's ok, I understand you have plenty of time on your hands and you need to find a way to occupy yourselves now that you have a free bus pass, but seriously? As for the business people, shouldn't you think about picking up your own businesses from the gutter, instead of being insulted when someone uses the full words the abbreviation stands for?

But all credit to the President for trying to pacify instead of showing the contempt they deserve!
