Why do EUropeans “love” O’Bomber?
Because, as was also the case with the Euro-obsequious Gore & Kerry, the EUropeans imagine that with President Obama, America will be their nigger.
“Hitler was the first rock star. He staged a whole country.”
David Bowie, 1975
The Protestants and Catholics of Belfast “found a way to live together”?
What rubbish!
The IRA gave up because their Soviet and Communist Czechoslovakian suppliers were gone, they lost the support of almost every one of their former supporters in Ireland, their financial support from American, Canadian and Australian Irish-Americans dried up the second the first plane crashed into the World Trade Centre, and their contacts with Libya, Hamas, FARC and other terrorists were effectively disrupted in the first wave of international anti-terrorist actions following 9-11.
What an ignorant, ungrateful moppet this megalomaniac narcissist Obama is. If he’s so happy about the fall of the Berlin Wall, then how come he doesn’t even mention Reagan or Bush Sr.?
Obama’s speech from beginning to end is nauseating in the extreme.
Should we consider these campaign promises:
He’s going to lower the oceans, end hunger in Bangladesh, bring about world peace, end discrimination, free Darfur, bring freedom of expression to Iran and Burma, bring democracy to Zimbabwe, make the world nuclear -free, shelter the refugees in Chad, and “banish the scourge of AIDS in our time”?
Those are rather modest goals for some two-bit, no-name, “community organizer”.
Why not redeem our souls while your at it?
Oh, I see, you’re saving that for 2012…

OBAMA
Tonight I speak to you not as a candidate for president [Good speech: Opens with a blatant lie. Says: "I think you people are idiots."], but as a citizen, a proud citizen of the United States and a fellow citizen of the world. [A citizen is one who owes loyalty to and enjoys the protection of state.]
I know that I don’t look like the Americans who’ve previously spoken in this great city.
…
This city, of all cities, knows the dream of freedom. And you know that the only reason we stand here tonight is because men and women from both of our nations came together to work, and struggle, and sacrifice for that better life. [WW I? WW II?]
…
People of the world [He speaks to the world? Is he God?], look at Berlin. Look at Berlin, where Germans and Americans learned to work together and trust each other less than three years after facing each other on the field of battle. ["Work together and trust each other"? America helped the enemy. Germans accepted food. East Germany's leaders plotted with the USSR to plan WW III. What a moron.]
People of the world, look at Berlin, where a wall came down, a continent came together, and history proved that there is no challenge too great for a world that stands as one [under Reagan]
["A world that stands as one"? Did Cuba and Iran and the USSR and Communist China and North Korea and Iraq and the rest stand "as one" with West Germany and America?]
The terrorists of September 11th plotted in Hamburg and trained in Kandahar and Karachi before killing thousands from all over the globe on American soil.
[But weren't they exonerated in German courts?]
As we speak, cars in Boston and factories in Beijing are melting the ice caps in the Arctic, shrinking coastlines in the Atlantic, and bringing drought to farms from Kansas to Kenya.
…
The genocide in Darfur shames the conscience of us all.
[So, war against Sudan?]
No one nation, no matter how large or powerful, can defeat such challenges alone.
[I guess he's criticizing European anti-Americanism.]
In this new century, Americans and Europeans alike will be required to do more, not less. [Didn't Stalin Hitler say that? Hitler? The Ayatollah? The UN?
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. [No more borders, I guess.] The walls between races and tribes, natives and immigrants [an end to citizenship, I guess], Christians and Muslims and Jews cannot stand. These now are the walls we must tear down.
Not only have walls come down in Berlin, but they’ve come down in Belfast [Idiot! Belfast is divided today by numerous Peace Walls!], where Protestant and Catholic found a way to live together; in the Balkans, where our Atlantic alliance ended wars and brought savage war criminals to justice.
This is the moment when we must defeat terror and dry up the well of extremism that supports it.
This is the moment when we must renew the goal of a world without nuclear weapons.
This is the moment when every nation in Europe must have the chance to choose its own tomorrow free from the shadows of yesterday. [So, no more history, I guess.]
This is the moment when we must come together to save this planet. Let us resolve that we will not leave our children to a world where the oceans rise, and famine spreads, and terrible storms devastate our lands.
Let us resolve that all nations, including my own, will act with the same seriousness of purpose as has your nation and reduce the carbon we send into our atmosphere.
We must remember that the Cold War born in this city was not a battle for land or treasure. Sixty years ago, the planes that flew over Berlin did not drop bombs; instead, they delivered food, and coal, and candy to grateful children.
[What a pile of a-historical crap! The Berlin Air-Lift was a response to Communist military aggression. It was carried out by NATO military forces. It was a Western response to a Soviet military challenge. The Communists dared the West to do something. The West dared the Soviets to shoot down airplanes carrying candy over Soviet-occupied Germany. Obama is an absolute moron.]
Will we lift the child in Bangladesh from poverty, and shelter the refugee in Chad, and banish the scourge of AIDS in our time?
Will we stand for the human rights of the dissident in Burma [how?], the blogger in Iran [how?], or the voter in Zimbabwe [how?]? Will we give meaning to the words “never again” in Darfur [how?]?
Will we acknowledge — will we acknowledge that there is no more powerful example than the one each of our nations projects to the world? Will we reject torture and stand for the rule of law?
[I guess that's his endorsement of McCain.]
Will we — will we — will we welcome immigrants from different lands [Oh, there are no immigrants in America or Germany?], and shun discrimination against those who don’t look like us or worship like we do, and keep the promise of equality and opportunity for all of our people? [Who are "our people"? Who's he talking to?]
People of Berlin, people of the world [Again with the God-talk!], this is our moment. This is our time. [Is it America's time? I guess not.]
I know my country has not perfected itself. ["Perfected"?!] At times, we’ve struggled to keep the promise of liberty and equality for all of our people. We’ve made our share of mistakes, and there are times when our actions around the world have not lived up to our best intentions. [THIS DISGUSTING BASTARD IS APOLOGIZING TO GERMANS FOR AMERICAN HISTORY!]
But I also know how much I love America. [Even if my wife doesn't.] I know that for more than two centuries, we have strived [striven], at great cost and great sacrifice, to form a more perfect union, to seek, with other nations, a more hopeful world.
Our allegiance has never been to any particular tribe or kingdom; indeed, every language is spoken in our country; every culture has left its imprint on ours; every point of view is expressed in our public squares. [Especially mine.]
People of Berlin and people of the world, the scale of our challenge is great. The road ahead will be long.
But I come before you to say that we are heirs to a struggle for freedom. We are a people ["We are a people"? Who? What people?] of improbable hope. With an eye towards the future, with resolve in our heart, let us remember this history [Remember this history? Didn't he just finish saying, "Europe must have the chance to choose its own tomorrow free from the shadows of yesterday"], and answer our destiny, and remake the world once again.
Thank you, Berlin. God bless you. Thank you. Thank you.
[Anyone remember the outrage from CNN, the Democrats, the NYT when George Bush said "God Bless You"?]

Apparently, Berlin O’Bomber was too busy channeling Hitler to grace U.S. troops with His Imperial Presence?

Dreams from Obama
By David Warren
…
I am struck by the tone of American media, even from the conservative side, as they review the presidential candidacy of Barack Obama. (John McCain is also running, but they’re not covering that.) The welter of his empty rhetorical gestures and contradictions are analyzed with a gravity to suggest deep thought had gone into each twist of his “evolving” electoral manifesto.
Running for the Democrat nomination, Obama posed as the reliable progressive… He would get out of Iraq, cut a deal with Iran, bomb Pakistan, trash America’s free trade agreements, deliver socialist medicine, cool global warming, and “heal” everything that ails you.
[Now] he will stay the course in Iraq, confront Iran, show diplomacy in Pakistan, defend free trade, spend cautiously, ignore global warming, and “heal” everything that ails you.
…
The most laughable part of the campaign is the new, first-ever, “I am the world” tour, currently in progress. Obama, realizing he has no credentials in this field, but is even more a rock star abroad than at home, seeks photo ops looking presidential in front of backdrops such as the Brandenburg Gate. Of course, he cannot get all the backdrops he wants, since his demand for them as a mere candidate for office is unprecedented, and leaves foreign leaders embarrassed that he asked. [Which is why he settled on Hitler's Triumph column.]
…
For the first five minutes of his presidency, Obama would indeed be greeted abroad as the anti-Bush. He would enjoy a shower of popularity, and by extension, America would bathe in the sort of sympathy and solidarity from Europe’s intellectuals that was last poured upon her during the five minutes after 9/11. Then he will start making decisions that any American president would have to make, and the honeymoon will mysteriously end. For style without substance is evanescent. It can rule only in the absence of substance.
Obama’s…a candle in the wind, a leaf on the breeze. He has no “vision” whatever, of his own or of America’s place in the world. He is good at writing “charisma” speeches, and even better at delivering them.
…
Obama’s Dreams From My Father…is all about finding himself. It is a well-written book, an interesting piece of literature, but it is strictly narcissistic.
Obama’s deeper appeal is also to people who are “looking for themselves,” obsessively; who have little or no “formation” (as the Catholics call it), no hard core of tested beliefs, forged in confrontation with the world; no beliefs to go to the Wall for. Instead he lightly holds the transient opinions of his progressive milieu, like a chameleon. Which is to say, absolutely consistent in colouration, until the background changes.

Peter Hitchens:
“JFK and Ronald Reagan actually had something to say when they went to Berlin, because the wall that sliced through the city so clearly illustrated the brutal ‘we know better than you’ arrogance of idealistic Leftism. Now the wall is gone, and the most Left-wing person ever to run for President of the USA tries to steal his forerunners’ standing by drivelling to a crowd in a park, most of whom can’t understand a word he says. Lucky for them, say I. When will Mr Obama’s absurd bubble of adulation burst?”
