Obama Tries to Appear Reaganesque In German Speech

Barack Obama, faker, spoke in Germany today and tried to ride the coat tails of a truly great man by lifting themes from President Ronald Reagan’s famous wall speech at the Brandenburg Gate in West Germany.
In fact Barack Obama was so blatant in his attempts to appear Reaganesque that he attempted to deliver his speech at the same site. Thankfully German politicians turned up the heat and the request was turned down.
“Obama didn’t do anything for German unification,” Mr Huber said.
“That’s not a criticism, but as a result there is no reason to grant him such a privilege,” he told the Welt am Sonntag newspaper.
Der Spiegel is covering every aspect of Barack Obama’s movements. Here’s a glimpse of what Obama is saying while on this latest stop of the Barack Obama fantasy tour.
++ Obama Calls on Europeans and Americans to Fight Terror Together ++
7:38 p.m.: “True partnership and true progress requires constant work and sustained sacrifice. Requires allies who will learn from each other, listen to each other and most of all trust each other.” Obama says: “America has no better partner than Europe.” He called on Europeans and Americans to work together “to defeat terror and dry up the well of extremism that supports it.”
++’We Cannot Afford to be Divided’ ++
7:33 p.m.: Obama says “We cannot afford to be divided. On both sides of the Atlantic we have drifted apart and forgotten our shared destiny.” Obama calls on people to “tear down new walls” between races, countries and religions.
What an embarrassment. Is this change or just another in a long line of unoriginal themes lifted from great leaders of the past?
As for the sacrifice line and the obvious swipe against America and the Bush administration what can I say. This is Barack Obama’s world view; one that is shared by the American left. When Democrats, and especially one of their most liberal Senators say “allies who will learn from each other, listen to each other and most of all trust each other” they are specifically taking America to task for its success and her people’s reluctance to accept socialist ideology as the new world religion. Forget American innovation, forget any past or present help America is providing our European allies, forget American charity that the left measures as a portion of the GDP rather than the overwhelming amount that is donated in whole numbers. Forget all of that.
We should apologize for being American, apologize for SUV’s, apologize for abu ghraib and apologize for anything we are guilty of doing according to the American left. Most especially we should apologize for the war in Iraq, forget that Democrats voted for such change before George Bush took office, forget that the murderous dictator Saddam Hussein was actively paying terrorist families rewards for blowing themselves up in Israel and actively training future terrorists that have aims on the United States, forget the failed diplomacy and anythign else the American left can blame on America. Just be shameful.
Not to be undone Barack Obama even evoked the great Bob the Builder “yes we can speech” that is given to Thomas the Train and friends every morning on your local cable station.
++ Obama Speaks of Berlin’s Cold War History ++
7:26 p.m.: Obama says: “This city knows the dream of freedom.” He says: “People of the world look at Berlin.”
++ Obama Arrives at Victory Column ++
7:21 p.m.: Obama takes to the podium to cheers of “Yes, we can.”
Unfortunately nothing could stop Barack Obama from unfolding the second half of the plan and uttering a completely ridiculous speech that was so obviously lifted from the themes put forth by Reagan and Kennedy that Obama should be mocked for his efforts.
Here’s the real deal:
