Obama Gives Queen iPod Loaded With His Speeches

First he gave the British PM a box of crappy DVD’s that won’t play on European machines. Now he’s given the Queen of England an iPod.

Thankfully, he opted for an engraved version and at least had the forethought to upload a few things like…

Photos from the Queen’s 2007 Richmond, Va., Visit

I bet her majesty can’t wait to listen to Obama’s speeches on her shiny new iPod.

Unfortunately, Obama’s crack research team failed to uncover the fact that the Queen already has an iPod. But even if she didn’t, who the fuck gives the Queen of England an iPod? Is he serious?

What else does president Obama have in his gift bag this trip? Is he going to hand out a few Nintendo Wii’s and maybe a Macbook or two as well?

I bet the Russian president would get a kick out of playing Call of Duty: World At War.
