Reminder of Kennedy gaffe in Berlin

Sen. Barack Obama chastised us Americans for not speaking the language of the countries we visit.

He stands in the great tradition of President John Kennedy, who concluded his Berlin speech with “Ich bin ein Berliner” – I am a jelly roll (or donut).

The correct German would have been “Ich bin Berliner”

Obama - "a sophistical rhetorician inebriated with the exuberance of his own verbosity"

Why is George Will offering advice that if the haloed one were to follow, could get him elected???

[Jeff Head]

On top of that, there is something burned into the American (and free world's) consciousness about huge crowds in Berlin wildly cheering and supporting a populist candidate. Brings back bad memories.

OBAMA!...OBAMA!...OBAMA!...OBAMA!...OBAMA!

I was very suprised at Obama’s choice of Berlin as a venue for the speech.

When JFK and Reagan spoke there, Berlin was the focal point of the Cold War with the Soviets right on the other side of the wall. The current status of Berlin is the result of the efforts of those who actually didn’t back down or “negotiate” with evil.

To be really analogous to the previous Berlin speeches, Obama should have delivered the speech in Jerusalem, Baghdad, or even Kabul- which Obama (absurdly) describes as the Central Front in the global war on terror.

“Obama exhorted Germans to be more willing to wage war, in Afghanistan.”

Don’t hold your breath waiting.

The real question was Obama in Berlin,Wi and trying to raise campaign funds there as He evidently went to Rafah,Ga on a campaign stop and raised over $31,000 in donations there.

So who will audit the the donations received in Berlin, Wi.

Can we count on the Federal Election Commission?

Obama: longtime champion of campaign finance reform - Ha Ha Ha. What a liar.

"Moreover, when Obama's ideals clash with reality, he has been able to find compromises that don't put him at a political disadvantage. For instance, no Democrat can win the general election while adhering to the public financing system if the Republican nominee doesn't do the same. Clinton and John Edwards have simply conceded that the public financing system is dead and are ignoring fund-raising restrictions that would be triggered if either ends up playing within the public financing scheme. Facing the same situation, Obama--a longtime champion of campaign finance reform in general and public financing in particular--asked the Federal Election Commission if he could raise the potentially restricted money now (the world as it is) but then give it back if he wins the nomination and convinces his Republican opponent to stick with public financing (the world as we would like it to be)."

mmmm Kennedy...

But it also might be related to fatigue from too much of his eloquence, which is beginning to sound formulaic and perfunctory.

Even an eloquent politician can become, as Benjamin Disraeli described William Gladstone, "a sophistical rhetorician inebriated with the exuberance of his own verbosity."

Ding ding ding, we have a winner!

His sweet, dulcet tones sound like a lead nickel hitting the counter. As was said about Kerry four years ago, "There is no there there."

GOP needs to do an ad, showing side by side, the two resumes.

‘T’would be rather comical as the obaminations would take up about a 1/4 page, if that - while McC’s would keep on scrolling down....

Mayhap some more sheeple would get the picture
