5th key reason Obama statyed away—it wasn’t about him.
#1 reason = It’s not about him.
You beat me to it, and it is the MAIN reason!!!
Hey, that was gonna be my comment!
Would you really want this fool to go over to Europe for any reason? He would only find a way to give away more of
our liberties or tax funds somehow.
“In my view, Obamas absence from Berlin today can be explained by four key factors:”
1. It’s not about him.
2. It’s not about him.
3. It’s not about him.
4. It’s not about him.
1) American exceptionalism.
2) Barry is an idiot.
3) Barry is an idiot.
4) American exceptionalism.
Did he have someone else attend in his place?
The only history he knows or is even concerned about is muslim.
Barry cowers in the GEICO gecko’s shadow.
Linky no worky.
What Europeans probably didn’t understand about the O is that he doesn’t really know anything about Europe or care anything about Europe. They were a handy cardboard cutout backdrop for him to use when he was trying to show that he was a supposed man of the world, but that was purely for domestic consumption.
He had never been to Berlin before, and will probably never go their again unless they decide to give him some kind of award for his sheer splendidness. Then he might show up.
responding to myself...”Yes, Hillary.”
I give Obama credit for staying true to his beliefs and not commemorating the fall of the wall. After all, he is a Communist and the fall of the wall was a great tragedy for them. He would be phony to attend the commemoration.
Ding-ding, ding! We have a winner!
I had read (heard?) that he was not going to be one of the speakers at the commemoration so decided to stay away. (If in fact he had been asked to speak, I should think the Teleprompter King would not want to be compared with a man who spoke from his heart without a TOTUS in tow).
Let’s see - he can jet to Chicago for pizza, to NY to take in a play, and to Copenhagen to get the Olympics for his slumlord buddies. But he cannot attend the 20-year anniversary of one of the most significant events in the last century?
Jackass. Complete and utter narcissic jackass.
The reason he didn’t go is because there was nothing in it for him. There is no way he could claim credit for ending communism in Eastern Europe. And it would be the wrong audience for him to claim credit for beginning communism in the US.
The REAL reason:
He couldn’t make it to WalMart in time to pick out gifts.
