Stop, he will speak NEAR (1/2 mile) not AT the Brandenburg Gate. I'm pretty sure he doesn't even deserve to be that close.

Since we already know he will speak at the astoundingly ugly Siegessaeule and it is nowhwere near the Brandenburg Gate, the article is kind of out of touch.

I think that Obama should speak at the reviewing platform on Red Square. Putin and Obama like each other, so I am quite sure that this could be arranged.

"Г-н Путин, положил назад ту стену" Let him say it in Russian and I'd be somewhat impressed.

If one could create an image on the web (I can’t).
1. Obama presidential seal replaces winged angel on column top.
2. Obama at base wearing a Prussian helmet ,

"The announcement that he will speak at the Victory Column, or Siegessaeule, ended weeks of speculation here. It also triggered criticism that the 226-foot column built in 1873 to celebrate Prussian war victories over Denmark, Austria and France was an inappropriate choice. The reason it's 226 feet tall is because Hitler and the Nazis had a special affection for the monument, and increased the size of it to make it more grandiose.
But Obama likes grandiose.
Krauthammer nailed it when he said Obama's only accomplishments are the two books he wrote about his favorite subject ----himself.

With 300 foreign policy advisors, you’d think Obambi could avoid dopey mistakes like this. Maybe he needs 3,000 advisors.

Since German reunification, the column has become known as the central location for Berliners to party. My wife tells me the victory column (Siegessaeule) is also the local gay pride symbol.

IMO its kinda cool looking from a distance, its columns made up of war booty, captured artillery etc. But up close it is ugly - its covered in graffiti. It does not appear to have been maintained at all.

Get ready for the MSM news bombardment starting Monday. The military controls all American news that comes out of Iraq as far as military bases and personnel goes, so he doesn't have much of an opportunity to get any propaganda shots there. I saw that they did find one black service lady for him to eat next to, that way at least one person would be smiling with him in the photo. They were the only 2 you could see in the shot. Starting tomorrow let the propaganda machine to go into full swing!!!!

Hopefully alot of Freepers will read and send to and educate their friends on the sheer immorality and disgusting character of this alleged nominee to the highest office in the land!
