Hussein should be at Naco saying “Mexicans, build this wall.”

At least Kennedy, Reagan and Clinton had managed to become presidents of the United States, and to some degre, each had managed to achieve something significant in the field of foreign affairs.

William the Impeached managed to pick up a female barrista in the Starbucks off Brandenberg Gate, hence qualifying as a "foreign affair"...

This is Barack’s “We are all one nation” speech, in which he will argue that the whole world can come together in peace. He’ll say that the purely self-interested nationalistic mindset is a failed idea which is behind us, and that we can now all join hands and work together in peace, to achieve those things that all peoples of the world dream of: affordable healthcare, a just standard of living, and a better world for their children.

Can’t you just hear him saying all that now? THE MESSIAH IS AMONG US!

Obama will bash Bush and proclaim a “new America” which “listens” to the world, and “partners” with it on climate change and appeasing Islamofascism. Patriotic Americans with a brain will be disgusted and vote McCain or stay home Nov. 4. Unfortunately, most Americans 18-30 have been taught to hate America and are too stupid and ignorant to be disgusted. And of course 93% of black Americans don’t care if he recites “The Cat in the Hat” in Berlin, and will vote for him because they are racists.

Next stop Gettysburg, where he can top Abraham Lincoln.

Oh, that’s right, the media say he already has.

For a small-time product of the corrupt Chicago machine, a happy benchwarmer in a black racist church, and an Alinskyite “community organizer” who agitated the urban underclass to claim their share of government goodies, this guy sure is putting on airs.

It looks like this idiotic stunt is a done deal. From Der Spiegel:

“Plans for a visit by Barack Obama, the presumed Democratic candidate for President of the United States, have moved forward — slowly — in Berlin, where he may give a speech before the Brandenburg Gate this summer.

Germany's ambassador to Washington, Klaus Scharioth, has reportedly worked for weeks to convince Obama’s campaign that the candidate's only large European appearance should take place in Berlin. Foreign Minister Frank-Walter Steinmeier talked to Obama by phone last April and learned that he might visit Germany. In the meantime, according to SPIEGEL sources, Steinmeier’s staff has set plans in motion for an Obama appearance in the capital by the end of July.

Both Steinmeier and his boss, Chancellor Angela Merkel, have expressed willingness to meet Obama. A member of Obama’s campaign has already met with Berlin's mayor, Klaus Wowereit, and the Secret Service has reportedly started to investigate security questions surrounding a visit.

No location has been announced, but the Berlin Senate has reportedly been asked whether Obama can speak in front of the Brandenburg Gate, where former US President Ronald Reagan gave a famous speech in 1987. Reagan made a show of asking then-Soviet premier Mikhail Gorbachev to “tear down” the Berlin Wall.

The Brandenburg Gate has fresh significance for an American presidential candidate, since a large new US embassy officially opened there on July 4.

Former US President John F. Kennedy gave a famous Berlin speech of his own in 1963, but he appeared in front of the town hall in Schöneberg — then the seat of government in West Berlin — which lies several miles from the Brandenburg Gate.

The itinerary for Obama’s summer tour includes France, Great Britain, Jordan and Israel. Berlin's Mayor Wowereit said, “It would be a good signal for German-American relations if the presidential candidate paid his respects in Berlin.”

Obama hasn’t done anything this entire campaign but presume himself already the President, from the seal to talking later elections. Why would this be any different?

This Kabuki theater is going to end up in a real disaster when election day rolls around. The media is building this shallow egotist into something he is not and when he is dumped in a landslide a lot of gullible followers are going to be ready to riot.

I was thinking about what the strategy session must have been like to come up with this one...I can just see it now:

MEETING TO DISCUSS CAMPAIGN STRATEGY

YOUNG ADVISER 1: We have a problem. When Barack tries to talk about military related issues on the campaign trail, people snicker at him. Veterans openly laugh at him. He is viewed as a black Michael Dukakis.

YOUNG ADVISER 2: We need to show the American people that he is just as staunch and reliable on national defense as...Ronald Reagan!

YOUNG ADVISER 3: (Projectile vomits into nearby trash can)

YOUNG ADVISER 2: Sorry dude! No, I am serious! All it takes is imagery, and if we put Barack in the same settings that strong presidents were seen in, then regular voters who are as stupid as sheep will automatically make a mental connection!

YOUNG ADVISER 1: Hmmm. I think you are on to something there. Let’s see...we could get him in a flight suit and fly him out to the USS Ronald Reagan...

YOUNG ADVISER 2: No. The officers, who are the bourgeoisie obviously hate him. The proletariat love him, of course, but due to rigid class distinctions, lack of trust and desire to keep them from rising to any well paying jobs, the proletariat are banned from flying the planes. We cannot trust the pilots from the privileged class to fly him safely. They might fly their planes into the ocean on purpose. No that won’t work. Besides, only the Bushchimphitler wore a flight suit.

YOUNG ADVISER 3: (Timidly) And I think the flight helmets would all be too small to fit over his ears...

(YOUNG ADVISERS 1 & 2 turn and glare at him)

YOUNG ADVISER 2: How about if we set up a meeting between Putin and Barack in Iceland, the way Reagan met with Gorbachov...he could wear one of those dark overcoats...they could have the wind blowing through their hair...

YOUNG ADVISER 3: But...Barack doesn’t have any hair for the wind to blow through. And Putin doesn’t really either.

YOUNG ADVISER 2: The dimwit has a point. Maybe we could have Putin take off his overcoat and shirt, grab a pole...a fishing pole, and...

YOUNG ADVISER 1: Stay on focus. This is not about Putin, no matter how much we admire him. I admit he IS attractive without the clothes...er...shirt, but...we have to find some way to fool the American voters into thinking Barack is strong on defense.

YOUNG ADVISER 2: Here’s an idea! How about having him appear at the Brandenburg Gate as Reagan did...

YOUNG ADVISER 3: (whines) But...Reagan was EVIL! He wanted everyone with AIDS to die! He cut all the money for AIDS research from...

YOUNG ADVISER 1: Can it. Not everything is about AIDS. We will pander to no constituency before its time. Now is not the time. How’s this: We get one of our writers to rewrite the speech that JFK gave at the Brandenburg Gate to address current issues...

YOUNG ADVISER 3: Like AIDS! And Racism! And Big Oil! And Corporate Greed!

YOUNG ADVISER 2: Yes! And we can have Barack make all the same hand motions as he speaks, the same way JFK did...(chops with his hand)

YOUNG ADVISER 3: I’m on it! I have all the JFK DVDs back at my penthouse in Manhattan. This is great! It’ll be just like when JFK said “Mr. Khrushchev: Tear down this wall!” (spoken in heavy gay Boston accent)

(YOUNG ADVISER 1 & 2 stare in disbelief at YOUNG ADVISER 3)

YOUNG ADVISER 1: You idiot. JFK never said it that way.

YOUNG ADVISER 2: Yeah! He wasn’t gay!
