I do believe US taxpayers are paying for this ridiculous campaign spectacle.

From Fox:

Obama tried to keep expectations realistic on his plane ride to Berlin.

“I doubt we’re gonna have a million screaming Germans,” he told reporters. “Let’s tamp down expectations here. If we get a few tens of thousands … we’re sort of on the high wire all of the sudden.”

One button that seemed popular among shoppers had a picture of him superimposed with President Kennedy. Another had Obama’s head atop the body of a beer garden waiter holding seven huge glasses of German brew. The button’s slogan said “Obamafest.”

PUKEFEST is what I'm thinking here.

The Cspan 3 live feed is just showing shots of the crowd right now and playing David Bowie, “Let’s Dance” for some puzzling reason. BUT the crowd shots are hysterical. They just showed someone holding up that dorky picture of him on the bike.

Now they are showing people who I really hope are drunk dancing.

The US embassy ordered it's personnel not to attend today because it is a political rally.

I'm watching on Fox and just saw somebody holding a sign. Actually it's a large photograph, of a black guy riding a bicycle. Only thing, the black guy looked more like New Orleans Looter Guy (you know, the one with the tub of beer) than Barack, the Magic Negro.

My eyes may be tricking me, but that's what it looked like to me.

This trip is in line with his quote that americans are not going to just be allowed to keep the thermostat at 72, drive SUV’s, and eat what we want without the rest of the world’s (in this case the Eurostans’) permission. So he is laying out his agenda and awaiting “approval”. Then he can safely promote his plans at home. R U LISTENING MCCAIN PLANNERS!!!!!!?

I just can’t bear to hear our beloved Stevie Ray’s riffs playing over there.
