So, back in 2007-9, think back (especially when Prez O won the Nobel Peace Prize. Don't forget, BHO won the Nobel Peace Prize in 2009, "for his extraordinary efforts to strengthen international diplomacy and cooperation between peoples.") They lined up to hear his genius, even before he was elected.
The Germans loved the guy. He gave great speeches, got 'em all riled up and ready to go fight somebody. You'd think the Germans would have recognized that the whole "gives great speeches, gets us all riled up, makes us want to go fight somebody" thing is actually NOT the sort of leader they should admire, given their history. But maybe it's just a cultural thing I don't understand. That BHO-flavored Kool-Aid never tasted that great to me.
Anyway, now the Germans are hatin' on BHO, and seem to believe that they were the ones who invented the criticism. The fact that anyone paying attention, even if you were once a supporter, has been criticizing BHO for at least three years has escaped German attention. The indignation is impressive. The only reason you should be indignant is that you actually once believed BHO's crap. Why would you do that?
In any case, welcome (though belatedly) to the side of truth and justice, my German friends! I'll get on my knees and pray, you don't get fooled again. Just watch the Daily Show. And be "happy."
Nod to the LMM for the Daily Show clip!
