David Camoron: "Well, it's NOT been a great week." Ha ha

"Oh, I say, bad luck, old sport. What a rotter. Spot of trouble, ay?"

In America, we still think every British politician talks like Terry-Thomas. As to the problems of some guy who looks a bit like Piers Morgan? What do we care?

"This Cameron fellow. Prime Minister of Canada, is he? What's the kerfuffle? Father was involved in this beastly Panama business? It'll blow over. He should keep a stiff upper lip. He says he's LEARNED from it, so what's the fuss? What do they say over there, Keep Calm and Eat a Yorkie Bar Unless You're a Girl?"

Yes, that's how USA TODAY reported the story.

The important thing is David will "learn" from his mistake, so be reasonable and let him stay.

The article was brief. Mostly there was that huge video clip where he says: "Well, it's NOT been a great week," as well-wishers giggle and sympathize.

Let the man learn from his mistake!

IF I'M BEING HONEST, American journalism, when it involves the actual rest of the world, is almost blind. Unless there's a terrorist attack, world news almost doesn't exist. An exception might be coverage of a hurricane that demolishes huts of innocuous Lady Boys or damages banana crops. Then we send money.

Another exception is to quiet any fears that monkeys in the 3rd world might affect the American lifestyle. We're told that yes, there's a disease in Brazil that might become a problem thanks to immigrants, or a disease in Somalia that might become a problem thanks to immigrants, or displaced psycho Muslims in Syria that might become a problem thanks to immigrants, but so far "no American lives have been lost." And some spokesperson is heard saying "we are aware of the problem and taking appropriate measures."

American journalists won't dare say Camoron is corrupt and there are protests in the street. Do that, and you won't be invited to his opulent press events. You won't get cooperation when you want to cover the birth of the next royal brat. You won't get your fine torn up when you parked your car where you shouldn't.

As far as Americans are concerned, England is a pricey but still very safe and lovely place to visit. Let's not allow the bad breath of "scandal" to interfere with that. PS, isn't it true that if you fall and break your arm while taking a picture of a Beefeater, you get it fixed up free courtesy of their National Health? They take good care of you over there!

Nice looking chap, this David whoever he is. Hiding money, is he? Oh, we ALL do that. I hide a few dollars in my boot!
