Ich bin Ein Obama
There is, after all, only the Numinous, the Godhead, The Barack Obama, The One who transcends mere, earthly, names.
(UPDATE: HEY GUYS! GET A ROOM WITH A SHOWER! ESPECIALLY YOU, MATTHEWS, CHANGE YOUR UNDERWEAR!)
The world has changed, but the grotesque historical aberration of Western liberalism marches on unaltered and forever deluded. We saw it in Berlin this week…the rush from reality that fueled every European calamity of the last two centuries, now feeding upon the nauseating platitudes of an American pol. But just remember, Barack:
The Germans are either at your feet or at your throat.
(Winston Churchill)
The bad guys of the world are taking The Obama’s measure, and I am not reassured.
ADDENDUM: While I think most Americans couldn’t care a whit about what the Germans/Europeans think on any subject (the remainder, who do care, are cosmopolite liberals like Obama) the foreign policy trip is a one phase of the Obama campaign’s plan to keep the celebrity mode going until the clock runs out in November. Obama’s polls are static, even WITH the foreign sideshow, and some even show slippage where the gilt has rubbed off.
Expect more histrionics and costume drama from the Obama campaign. It’s absolutely essential for them to keep the sales job blazing away, and the dramatization of their facile, even mediocre, candidate from being examined too closely.

All the gilded ornamentation and exquisite carvings that decorate the Obama stage are mere gesso reproductions, 2/$.99 at the dollar store.
That is the facade of the Chosen; even the golden throne is plywood.
And I’d also like to know the components of the crowd. For a generation Berlin was wide open, and heavily subsidized to keep people from leaving - not typical of West Germany, and a poke in the eye to the East. Some of the crowd almost certainly came from Crappe Strasse, and the brutalist cement warrens built by Soviet-inspired idiots. Anyone who thinks that ANY crowd of Berliners is representative of Westerners in general is crazy. Life in a neon graveyard would make even Obama look like a savior.
By the way, VW, good symbolism. It ain’t even gold leaf, it’s Dutch Metal.
Yeah, like German silver is to silver.
Well, they DO have all those tooth fillings.
“ESPECIALLY YOU, MATTHEWS, CHANGE YOUR UNDERWEAR!)” Matthews changes underwear daily. He swaps with Obiedork so neither is wearing what they wore yesterday.
