That sounds so ‘special’ Obama thinks he is resurrection of JFK - can Michelle speak fluent French a la Jaquie?
Perhaps I am classless, crass, just plain old mean, whatever anybody wants to throw at me is fine, but I was not impressed much by the JFK Administration at all. I thought he was a lousey President whom made very good speeches.
Sure he cut taxes, great...
His assassination to this day is upsetting and terribly sad to me and my wife. We both remember the day, the shock, the anger, the overwhelming grief.
His wasn’t all that great a Presidency, just one that stands out in history due charisma and assassination.
... as in the dou(gh)nuts - "Berliner" - are back.
"Ich bin ein Cut & Runner”
Next we’re going to hear from Obama how driving in downtown Chicago is just as dangerous as commanding a PT boat during WWII.
Berlin, heck. I think he is going to Nurenburg (sp) a la Hitler.
Hussein Obama is a jellyfish by comparison.
Lost is all this is BHO’s lack of any orignality in intent vision for involving the location.
Kennedy (U.S. air lift had saved city)and Regan (Communist Imprisioning wall) had overt reason’s for being there.
There is no wall and there is no reason for Barry to be there. He is only a copycat trying to cling to the cloak of others’ greatness for some personal gain.
Where is the vision and originality? Barry should try the Darfur, Zim or the Iranian, NK or Tibet borders if he wants to make actually address a current issue and try something...mildly original.
The trouble with this is that most of Obama’s base weren’t even born when Kennedy gave his speeches and the remainder knew John Kennedy and Obama is no John Kennedy.
(repost from related thread yesterday)
wow... I served in Berlin (W), when it still had the W for “west”, for 46 months. I heard the sirens. I was fortunate enough to see President Ronald Reagan during his visit. My daughter was born there.
I was there when Major Nicholson was shot by a soviet soldier and a soviet officer denied first aid. Maj Nicholson’s driver was forced at gunpoint to watch him bleed to death.
I was there for two of the Glienicke Bridge East-West prisoner swaps.
IMVHO, for Obama to even request such a venue is Hitleresque at best. I truly am appalled and offended as I suspect many Germans must be that they would even consider requesting use of the Brandenburg Gate for personal gain. I think it is despicable.
Maybe this will be the next “regret” he has.
“BHO is JFK’s political heir.” How did this get by the editor? It is not politically correct to call attention to the H. The proper abbreviation is BO - with all that that implies.
Yet the False Prophet, aka LSM, will give a voice to the Beast.
And yea, the people will say, "Who can make war with the Beast?"
"Verily, he is clean and articulate, and hath slain the Whore of Babble-On...you know."
“Democratic nominee has accepted an invitation to speak in Berlin later this month”
Accepted?? I would like to see the invite...I have a feeling he barged his way down the Strasse..
Will this be his:
“Ich bin ein Ostberliner” speech or his
“Mr Gorbachev, rebuild this wall!” speech?
