Rep. Sestak, you are one of my heroes. I know that you have to go along with the Democratic party — and the funding of your reelection campaign is at stake (ahem) — but I am sorry that the party used you like this: “So if you want my take on this, if you want [...]

Barack cancelled his visit to Landstuhl Regional Medical Center because, his spokesman said, he decided it would be “inappropriate” to do so during a campaign trip. Wait. I thought this was a mission with fellow senators, touring the embattled countries of Iraq and Afghanistan where these soldiers were wounded. Then there’s that today he told [...]

DID any of the rest of you notice that the “million people” expected in Berlin turned into a paltry 200,000 — one-fifth the estimated crowd, many there surely to hear the rock concert? Now this, via a naughty reporter at Politico.com: Did today’s Obama speech remind anyone else of … This groundbreaking moment? Which reminds [...]

Jake Tapper’s story today is Obama On Tonight’s Berlin Speech: “A Crapshoot”. Last week, the razor-sharp Tapper zeroed in on a story that we’ve covered here at No Quarter many times. Joe Wilson, Larry Johnson and I, as well as other writers, have all noted that Obama has failed to DO HIS JOB as Chair [...]

I am beginning to wonder if Obama actually went to law school and taught Constitutional law. In fact, I wonder if he went to grade school. Back in May, Obama referenced having visited 57 states; today on Face the Nation, the very junior Senator from Illinois said this: “[T]he objective of this trip was to [...]

Barack Obama used donations to refurbish and repaint his campaign plane, and has removed the flag of the United States from the tail of the plane. Reports Bonnie Kapp for Fox Embed: [T]he plane that once had an American flag on its tail now sports the Obama “O.” “Change We Can Believe In” and the [...]

You’re all familiar with the uproar in Germany over Obama’s original plan to speak in front of the Brandenburg Gate. In her fine essay, “The Adulation of a Leader: a Cautionary Tale,” Medusa noted that Obama was attempting “an ancestral hat trick,” evoking both Ronald Reagan and John F. Kennedy’s speeches at the site. Well, [...]

Shamelessly stolen from The Real Barack Obama‘s Freedom Fairy: It seems that Sen. Obama’s dream of delivering a speech before thousands in front of the Brandenburg Gate, the very same place where two great American presidents—John Fitzgerald Kennedy and Ronald Reagan—have so proudly stood, is not to be. And so, it seems that Barack Changeling [...]

In 1939, James Thurber published a short story entitled, The Secret Life of Walter Mitty. Standing the test of time, this story was depicted in a movie and later, in the 60s it was a short-lived TV series. The book was published through the late 70s and it remains available today. Because of the character [...]

Der Spiegel has another update on Obama’s hopes for a speech at the Brandenburg Gate in Berlin. Barack Obama wants to hold a speech at the Brandenburg Gate when he comes to Berlin later this month. The city’s mayor wants to grant him his wish, but the German chancellor has misgivings. The warning from the [...]

To Obama, all the world is a stage, hence a stadium in Denver or the Bradenburg Gate seem fitting backdrops to his delusions of grandeur. Misanthrophic is the word that comes to mind. Contemptuous is another. However, the Germans do not seem to be willing to play his games. Via Germany’s Der Spiegel:

"Romney is quick to credit those around him for the games' success. He's thorough as he details how he revamped the budget, kept costs down and marketed the games to sponsors. His self-deprecating honesty is refreshing and appealing."
