Obama In Berlin: Bussing In The Believers

July 25, 2008

From Reader Expat, via email;

Just for the record, Obama’s team and Democrats Abroad delivered announcements of his speech to bars and cafes in Berlin to push attendance. They also brought in people from Democrats Abroad in other European countries. Reporters here were calling BO’s newly painted plane Obama One.

What people in Germany don’t know is that BO should have visited Germany before as part of a Congressional committee trip and should have held hearing in the committee he chairs. They don’t realize that he only cares when the lights are on him.

What Americans don’t know is that Obama’s wise foreign policy experts allowed his little campaign ploy to get involved in in the next German election. Angela Merkel was not pleased that his Brandenburg Gate would have highlighted her opponents. BO’s plane landed early and he asked whether he could visit Merkel 15 minutes earlier. She refused. Meanwhile the insipid mayor of Berlin got his photo op presenting Obama with a porcelain bear.

    KFI Los Angeles has a rep for the mouthiest talk shows on the West Coast. Their morning drive-time today led off their “Obama Woos Berlin” story this way:

    (Theme from Jesus Christ Superstar playing throughout)

    Obama spoke to a crowd in Berlin yesterday in his run for Savior!

    (Jesus Christ Superstar continues in the background)

    After which, He walked on water across a lake of beer –

    (interrupt) Did he bring Brats?

    Yes! He took two Bratwursts and five steins of beer and fed the entire crowd!

    (Forgettable sound bite from Obama speech — “Hope! Change! HopeChange! Whatever!” — then Jesus Christ, Superstar rises to a crescendo, drowning out the rest…)

    This is getting to be their standard way of reporting on Obama. (I would have gone on a little longer, about the crowd rushing Obama to get his Mark on their foreheads and right hands, but nobody would have gotten the reference.)

    Their report on McCain was a sound bite followed by the commentary “SOMEBODY! ANYBODY! LISTEN TO ME!”
