FUNNY you should mention BEER-fest...

Obamafest: Left a traditional badge, right one based on an October Fest motif. (DPA)

I guess that the Germans went there to practice their English since he didn’t address them in German.

This Berlin? /s

Sounds like this writer was masturbating while writing about the Obamnunist

"Nothing is over until we decide it is! Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor? Hell, no!" - John Belushi (Animal House, 1978)

"Throughout our history, America’s confronted constantly evolving danger, from the oppression of an empire, to the lawlessness of the frontier, from the bomb that fell on Pearl Harbor..." - Barack H[REDACTED] Obama (on the campaign trail, July 18, 2008)

“The walls between old allies on either side of the Atlantic cannot stand. The walls between the countries with the most and those with the least cannot stand. The walls between races and tribes; natives and immigrants; Christian and Muslim and Jew cannot stand. These now are the walls we must tear down.” - Barry Hussein Obama

[Peter W. Kessler]

...tear down walls between estranged allies, races and faiths, in a soaring challenge to a new political generation.

Let’s see... Berlin... wall... OH!!! THE BERLIN WALL!!!

Uhh... didn’t his political heroes build that wall?

[jennyjenny]

He has no shame.

The only reason it would make sense for him to be there at all is if he was going to visit troops. He canceled that part of his “tour”, instead preferring to bribe 200 gazillion German citizens to cheer him for 1/2 an hour.

[colinhester]

Why? Because he’s acting presidential. McCain better get it together very quickly and start delivering a message.....C

[ravingnutter]

But...but...the DU folks told me that the rock groups only booked the venue because they knew the crowds going to see the Obama would be huge.

ROTFLMAO!

[weegee]

So is Barack demanding that we tear down the wall around Mecca and let the kufir (non-muslims) enter the segregated city without the punishment of death they’d normally face?

This guy dresses to kill eh?

I always wanted to be a professional musician, but my only flaw was I just didn't know how to dress. This guy's super large scarf will make him gobs of fans, and money.

Yes, also Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung says more than 200 000 people. (On Swedish text-TV news they only noted tens of thousands - I’m sure they will change that before long). However, FAZ also notes that 00000bama used some famous words by former Berlin mayor Ernst Reuter. He was the mayor during the Berlin blockade, but when Herr Reuter held his speech it was in front of 300 000 people. So in fact 00000bama lost by 100 000!

Jeez, I heard on the radio right after it was over that the numbers was 10’s of 1000’s.

Just wait tomorrow it will be bigger than the Million Man March.

[Charles Henrickson]

look at Berlin, where a wall came down. . . . When you, the German people, tore down that wall -- a wall that divided . . . . The fall of the Berlin Wall brought new hope.

AFTER THREE AND A HALF YEARS
OF NOT DOING WHAT
HE WAS ELECTED FOR,
HE'LL DISCOVER A BUNCH OF
FOREIGNERS WHO DON'T CARE.

WALL • O

I guess we could compare pictures of nazi rallies to guage the true numbers.

PRopaganda ain’t what it used to be.

Well,as Groucho said about Frenchmen....”How many Germans can't be wrong?”

[wolfcreek]

Is calling him the Anti-Christ, racist?

Waiting for someone to make the connection.

The Germans sure know how to pick good leaders...
