Well *I*'m embarrassed...
not even in german?
Obama ["Citizen of The World"] Berlin Speech notes:
"My German is not real good,” he said. “I can speak Bahasi Indonesian but I don’t think ... there would be a lot of appeal to that."
yeah… uh…
...before the presumptive Democrat nominee spoke to a crowd in Berlin Thursday, two popular German acts—reggae artist Patrice and rock band Reamonn— entertained the gathering audience.
This is the moment when the world should support the millions of Iraqis who seek to rebuild their lives, even as we pass responsibility to the Iraqi government and finally bring this war to a close...
*passes out barf bags*
++ Paris Left Cold by Obama Visit ++ “A speech in Berlin, five little hours in Paris,” writes French daily Le Monde.
Better’n Ram-allah got…
++ Visit to US Military Bases Cancelled ++ [including Landstuhl Regional Medical Center (LRMC) which treats wounded soldiers coming from Iraq and Afghanistan]
*passes out irony tourniquets*
Obama noted that in a break from his whirlwind schedule “we’ve got some down time tonight. What are you guys [presumably the press coprs] gonna do in Berlin? Huh? Huh? You guys got any big plans? ...I’ve never been to Berlin, so ... I would love to tour around a little bit."
*passes out torches ‘n’ pitchforks*
...and we haven’t even gotten to the text. yet…
