Robert Gibbs should apologise to the British press for his sneering rant

By Janet Crain
I sure wish this administration would stop alienating our closest allies and friends. The day may come when we don't have any left.

For all its talk of "raising America's standing" in the world after the Bush years, the Obama administration is doing a spectacularly bad job of reaching out to its allies. Unfortunately this is the new face of America's public diplomacy, which will only serve to alienate public opinion across the Atlantic. Congratulations Gibbs - you've just made an enemy out of the entire British media, quite an achievement for the man in charge of selling the President's message.
