You're missing the point.

The inference by Krauthammer and other right wing loons was that President Obama slighted the Brits by shipping the bust back to Britain. Whether it was moved 10 blocks up the street to the Embassy and later back to the White House is immaterial and entirely besides the point. It's in the White House and Obama rightly gave deference to Lincoln over Churchill

The narrative is what's important here; that Obama slighted the Brits, lacked judgement and diplomacy. That lie has been perpetuated for three years and now has been proven patently false. That's the point.

I'm done with this thread.
