CNN’s chief international correspondent Christiane Amanpour, reporting on Barack Obama’s speech in Berlin on Thursday’s “The Situation Room,” expressed her shock that the European crowd didn’t seem to have the same mania for the Democrat that the media has: “I did ask some people as they were leaving what they thought. Everybody said good, good. But I was surprised that there wasn't this sort of euphoria afterwards, given how many people had come to listen and how much it had been anticipated.” She later stated in the segment that one unnamed political analyst talked about how “people [in Europe] want a political redeemer --

Perhaps the Germans are aware that the Emperor has no clothes.

Did Amanpour have an O-gasm?

Christiane must be slipping; just because it didn’t happen doesn’t mean she couldn’t report that it did!

“given how many people had come to listen and how much it had been anticipated.”
They came for the free concert.
Is that possibility so iconoclastic that they cannot even mention it?

Give ‘em a break Christiane. They were too full of free concerts, beer and brats to feel anything.

Did Amanpour have an O-gasm? Apparently Obama didn't take her to climax. She needed the roar of the crowd to take her over the top, so apparently she had to fake it.

Thats what I was thinking. They were there mainly for the freebie.

Perhaps the Germans are aware that the Emperor has no clothes. A people that can produce the BMW R60 could never be fooled by Obambi .

Ahh. Christiane F*-ing Amanpour, CNN's threadbare and over the hill war-slut. A bit out of her element, trying actually to analyze something more complex than a mortar round and a puff of dust in the distance. Did she still have on that oldfashioned Safari shirt?
To: Churchillspirit
There are still plenty of older Germans around who recall this sort of thing. The young ones know about it and see what it did to their parents and grandparents.
Obama might actually be on the right path to attract the "Skinheads" but they have their own reasons to not trust him.
Then, too, the fall of the GDR is still in living memory of almost all the German people.

“..By the way, you can hear now the sounds of people dismantling everything that was put up for this event...”
