Wow - one thing sure jumped out at me.
The Associated Press called Obama a “mixed race” American.
Is the Mainstream Media finally retreating from its comical fantasy that Obama is the first “Black” president?

That caught my eye also.
Maybe AP's pissed off about this administration grabbing it's phone records.
When the band plays "Hail to the Cheif", they're pointing the cannon at you.

He’s coming with a C30 transport full of obama phones. Some could actually be used as phones or traded in for cash to buy a luis viton bag or some heroin. Lucas and Spielberg will be on hand to computer generate the crowd he deserves.

How appropriate. The world’s closet antiSemite,
and absolute Impostor, and violator of private conversations,
going to GERMANY ... to plan the destruction of freedom.

"Some wag came up with the jelly donut jibe well after the speech."Not true at all. If you say: "I am Danish", everyone knows you are a person from Denmark. If you say "I am a Danish", everyone knows that you are calling yourself a sugar coated breakfast roll.
In German, it's even more important to avoid the "ein" in "Ich bin ein Berliner". "Berliner" is indeed, one who was born in Berlin. "Ein Berliner" is just as certainly a Jelly Doughnut. "Ich bin Hamburger" tells us that you were born in Hamburg. "I am a hamburger" says......... Well, you figure it out.

Actually, it is more like “Danish”, as in “I am a Danish” vs “I am Danish”. The correct way to say “I am a Berliner” is “Ich bin Berliner”.

“saw the young mixed-race American as a unifying and transformational figure who signified hope and change”
He was a black American four years ago, according to the writer now—he was mixed race and I’m sure he’ll be called white by the time he leaves office in disgrace. “Can’t have a black failure, can we?

His 26-hour whirlwind visit to the German capital caps three days of international summitry for the president and marks his return to a place
where he once summoned a throng of 200,000 to share his ambitious vision for American leadership.
What a piker!!!

If he wishes to emulate Kennedys speech he would more appropriately deliver it in Hamburg.
"Ich bin ein Hamburger."

Ha!! I remember that phrase being thrown about everywhere, from all the good little totally interchangeable, completely replaceable liberal talking head sock puppets.

Substitute “Arschloch” or even “Scheiße Kopf” for hamburger and he’d be right on the money.

No. West Berliners in 1963 absolutely got what Kennedy meant. They didn't care about the jelly donut pun. Those were times when they could see Soviet tanks across the street, with main guns aimed at them, and border guards with submachine guns glaring at them from the barricade. It was a different time and a different world.
