Title: Obama Snubs Germany
Post by: ColonialMarine0431 on November 08, 2009, 05:53:59 PM
My mom came to America when Hitler came to power. She knew what was coming. We're Christians and we fight Fascism. That's why I became a Marine. To carry the Cross and fight oppression. When The Wall fell I cried. It was a significant moment in my life---seeing the Homeland free again. Now Zero ignores it. I truly hate that POS.

Since he will be making a trip to pick up his igNobel Piece Prize, he had hoped that they would postpone the celebration until then, when it was convenient for him.

I'm fluent in German. Surely someone in his staff can make an appearance.

Traditionally when the President cannot attend a high profile function like this, they at least send the Veep.  However, after careful consideration, it was determined that it was better to let Germany feel snubbed, than to inflict Joe "the human gaffe" Biden on them.

It's true, Biden might unintentionally say something that would plunge Europe into war...and Hillary is busy cleaning the Foreign Policy Czar's executive washroom that day.

But, mainly, for Obama to acknowledge the Wall or that the Cold War was the seminal conflict of the last half of the 20th Century, with global destruction in the balance, and that it was finally won by 12 years of hardheaded Republican rule, well Hell, that just ain't gonna happen.

Again Obama lets us down. He'd have been there it was something that put the spot light on HIM. As it is it would have been a republican president who got the spot light. Now come on, anyone who doesn't know that doesn't know the depth of Obama's self love.

If he keeps up with his tricks he is going to be out of a job in a few years. Then where is the little media whore going to go for attention?

Maybe he'll fall back on his Muslim roots and go out in a blaze of glory.

I see. King Barack snubs Germany because Communism was toppled relatively peacefully in 1989, which is a rarity. Communism ends in violence, often war, like Soviet Union, Cambodia, and Romania.

I've been watching German news from Germany (in English DW-TV) on PBS this morning......they're having quite a party over there.

From time to time they're replaying old footage of the wall and it's downfall.

The Germans chanted "Wir sind ein Volk"  We are one people and "Freiheit" Freedom when they tore down The Wall. This was the end of communism. And DingleBarry won't even acknowledge it. What a POS.

It has been theorized by several here in the local media that the messiah refused to go due to the fact that the Germans would not let him speak at the Brandenburg Gate during his campaign......his staff was told that that honor was reserved for those who had achieved substantial world prominence.......

In short, like always, it is all about HIM......

A fit of pique such as this does fit him to a tee.

I completely agree, this is about not being allowed to speak during the campaign. Petty self-centered jerk.

Wow, FNC is showing Hillary speaking at the celebration!!  I hadn't heard anything about her even being over there for it.  Maybe Dear Leader didn't want to give her any hype.

I can help with that one:

"Herr Medvedev, bauen Sie mal diese Mauer wieder auf!"

There was one world leader absent for today’s commemorations marking the 20th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall. Surprisingly enough, it’s President Barack Obama, who found time last year to give a campaign speech there last year, which Der Spiegel summed up as “People of the World, Look at Me”.
The White House has cited a packed schedule, though looking at it he had nothing much on yesterday (brief chat to reporters about healthcare – by far his biggest priority) and just blah briefings and a bill signing today until a metting this evening with Benjamin Netanyahu. This time, Der Spiegel has reported it as “Barack Too Busy”.
But Obama is, of course, making time to trot over to Norway to receive the Nobel Peace Prize in December. Didn’t seem to have too much of a problem clearing the diary for that – though his acceptance of the prize and decision to give a another soaring, historical, epoch-marking etc etc speech there will be looked back on as a colossal political mistake and sign of hubris. ...

Communists do not celebrate their failures.

She will talk about what she and her husband did for peace.

Obama hasn't done shit....so his speech would have been about him....not his accomplishments as he hasn't had any. You know.....another one of those campaign speeches he keeps giving?

A little quote from Lord Zero's recorded speech for the celebration.

Quote
"Few would have foreseen ... that a united Germany would be led by a woman from Brandenburg or that their American ally would be led by a man of African descent. But human destiny is what human beings make of it."
