Germane and German

Sarkozy must have missed the part in Obama's Berlin speech where he implied that all nations have to welcome immigrants with open arms. A glimpse into Obama's America where illegal immigrants get everything free, including a full health care plan and driver's license.

Nobody was there for the concert , the whole crowd didn´t wait more hours just to see patrice who was playing there, the corwd was there to see the future of the biggest nation in the world, and obama fullfils all the hope they have got in america, thanks for this speech , please my dear americans think a littlebit more further i what he said , you don´t have your own country only there are more then 6 billion people around you , and mccain doesn´t even notice for him its only the us but obama has checked it that only together we can change the world , thanks obama .

An Einstein law of fact:
60%--do not like Obama
32%--love Obama
18%--do not know Obama

smith - you can always go with joe lieberman. yesterday he compared reverand hagee to moses.

forgive me for being a little skeptical.

Sally, Thank you. The savior meme, started by Sidney Blumenthal in February (anybody remember using that term before he led you to it like a sheep?) is getting very, very old. The Ivy League legacy boys, in media sources from the LA Times to Time, spread it in an eight day period in February. (PP was particularly offensive - sluring a Christian hoilday along with Obama), and neocons thought it was original and cute. Except it wasn't. It was a political ploy and they followed like drones. The Anti-Obama crowd didn't realize that Blumenthal and Mark Penn were being paid millions of dollars to stuff it down their throats and they were repeating it like androids. And continue to. So listen guys, every time you do that, you can hear another million drop in fat Mark's pocket. Thought you came up with it? Guess again.

Yet another Obama bashing - what is this? The fifteenth in a row? In case you only get your news from PP - which is beginning to have Pravda-like coverage, Obama gave s stunning speech in Berln today, before 200,000 people, many in red white and blue and many with American flags. If you want Obama-bashing, bizzyblog does it better - and is often the source for the news - but if you want actual news coverage - find another source. This is more Ivy-League legacy boy (as in "Who's Your Daddy" slurs from McCain's would-be secretary.

And in case you missed it, McCain screwed up yet again today - and called Iraq our first military intervention after 9/11. Someone should notify the mothers who lost sons in Afghanistan.

@Bridget
Speak for yourself. "We Europeans" overwhelmingly favor Obama over McCain. Partly because Democrats historically are more in sync with European politics, partly because of Obama's unique charisma. And then of course his stance on global issues like Guantanamo, the war in Iraq and global warming.

He is no saint, no new JFK, but I do think he is the best America has to offer at this moment in history. I just hope that he can handle all the success and stay true to himself.

@hmmmmm
England is part of Europe.

Every email that they send out had the "Donate" button. Get real.

My grandson is in Iraq. Obama's poise, passion and intelligence helped me get over Clinton.

We need to avoid another Repub White House at all costs.

If you can give GB two chances Robert, you can give Obama one.

What exactly do you have to lose?

No Obama supporter thinks he is the Messiah, savior, nor the answer to our every need.

Obama is however, the one man in a very LONG TIME to excite the public to pay attention and attempt to get their government back.

Hearing or reading any human downplay the very power of their fellow humans is quite disappointing. hearing them discredit the very individual that incites them, is even more disappointing.

If you could vote for Bush once or twice and be happy with the results, you could certainly give the new guy a chance. He isn't running to 'save' us silly, he is exciting us to save ourselves.

I am tired of folks mixing it up. If you want to BE SAVED, go to church. If you're ready to get off your butt, get informed and care about what your government is doing,

Then by all means,

VOTE OBAMA 08.

Media hype is now media lies.

There is no way that crowd was 200,000. It certainly wasn't bigger than his much touted 75,000 crowd.

Half of the 200000 were there for the free concert, the other half were from Turkey. Hello Jane.

It was a very good ,Messianic speech.But he is not the real messiah.Can he rase the dead? can he walk on watter? can he stop the tornados? can he change his coolaid to beer? But he loves America now, and wearing the American flag, so we can believe everything he is telling us?

Anna:

""America has no better partner than Europe".

"Then do tell me, who is a better partner?"

Well.... how about CANADA!
How about..... ENGLAND!

Europe is a conglomerate of countries...

HILLARY OR MCCAIN...
BUT ALWAYS

DO YOU REPUBLICANS ALWAYS MAKE UP WHATEVER FACTS YOU NEED? HERE IS OBAMA'S STATED POSTION:

OBAMA: "Well, this is an area where Senator Clinton and I almost entirely agree. I think that the key is to consult with local communities, whether it's on the commercial interests or the environmental stakes of creating any kind of barrier.

And the Bush administration is not real good at listening. That's not what they do well.

(LAUGHTER)

And so I will reverse that policy. As Senator Clinton indicated, there may be areas where it makes sense to have some fencing. But for the most part, having border patrolled, surveillance, deploying effective technology, that's going to be the better approach."

LL Barra-

Remember,
Humans report the news, humans determine what it aired, humans own news corporations-

The idea that any such thing as "unbiased" news is preposterous.

They can have a straight face, they can report using camera angles and words that seem unbiased.

There is NO SUCH THING as unbiased news.

We can only support the bias with which we most agree.

And 200,000 stayed to hear the speech. Give it a rest. No one is that stupid.

It was a masterpiece of rhetoric and struck the right tone of strength and friendship. But will it play well back home?

Some of these comments just amaze me.

Some outright scare me.

McCain supporters should be happy with Obama's news coverage this week.

Imagine how many more screw ups on film could have been played for the entire US.

If the "knowledgeable" who got us into this war aren't considered arrogant, then Obama surely does not deserve the title of arrogant.
