    JFM,

    Absent the “ein” you’d be correct.

    Kennedy also failed the Obama test of multi-lingualism (which of course Obama fails himself as well).

    Heh,

    Proof, is as usual, right.

    Saint Obama makes JFK look like a heavyweight, no mean accomplishment that!

    Wouldn’t it be better if the Republicans actually had a candidate you could say “I know he’ll put the economy first?”

    From his record I think we have reason to doubt that. In fact he’d probably be more successful in advancing bad things that the clueless one.

    You heard badly: JFK said distinctly: Ich bin ein Berliner (I am a citizen of Berlin) and while he was not ready to go to a nuclear war to free occupied Europe he was also stating US would side with freedom not loook the other way like Obam would do.

    JFK went there and said, I am a Berliner, which is Billy Jeff code for ‘I feel your pain’ and he left tens of millions suffering behind the iron curtain, because he presented no credible threat to the Soviet Union (That is not an indictment, just a fact)

    Reagan went there and said, tear down this damn wall, and soon the wall fell and tens of millions of people began to enjoy the fruits of liberty.

    Obama goes there to say, “I want to see a change in the wall, change is everything.”

    In the early sixties it was pretty daring to fly into West Berlin, an island in the sea of Communism.

    It’s pretty stupid today, especially considering the gaffemeister is going to be speaking in front of a Nazi landmark.

    The column originally stood in front of the Reichstag, Germany’s parliament building, but was moved by Adolf Hitler to its current location in 1939 to make way for his planned transformation of Berlin into the Nazi capital “Germania.”

    Those fascists do seem to admire eachother.

    good one; how do they say empty suit in German?

    A “Berliner” (with the definite article) was a jelly doughnut.

  • Mickey

    Obama didn’t know the wall was down.

  • Pilgrim

    This guy’s great.

  • paul

    i heard that the phrase “ich bin ein berliner” was a gaffe even then, meaning i am a ice cream?

  • Jerry

    Hey “Whistler”,
    Nothing personal here. But, you wanna see Global Warming legislation and Taxation, put “Obama” in office. Somehow I think MCcain may put the economy first. At Least, that would be the “hope”.. With the Democrats, there “is” no hope..
