G20 Summit gets a deal

[crazy canuck]

G20 is a Canadian Idea.

It may well be but I think the current G20, which isn't actually the 20 largest economies, is a French invention.  At least that's what Sarko claims

He also invented the internet.

He also invented the internet.

Still got a ways to go to catch Kim Jong Il who invented the airplane, the wheel, and fire.

CNN just aired footage of Obama addressing a "town hall meeting" in France.

He said something to the effect that the US has been arrogant but anti-Americanism in Europe is a problem.

I only ask this because you want to talk, but I think you are lazy.

Lots of protestor footage.  CNN noted several times that the protestors are not bashing the US.

The odd thing is that here the stories moved from the most half-hearted riot in English history to the idea that it's all a bit of tail wagging dog and that the media largely created it and were left, comparatively, disappointed.

There were reports of "demonstrators" trashing a Bank of Scotland office.

Yeah.  But for the five people I counted smashing windows I counted double that number of photographers.

It was Royal Bank of Scotland which is probably the most hated bank in the country.
