RUSH: Okay, gotta hear this. One more Obama in his echoified address at the Brandenburg Gate today. He mentions John Kennedy. He mentions himself. He does not mention Ronaldus Magnus, the man who made this happen.
OBAMA (godlike reverb): Even as we celebrate these values, even as we mark this day, we know the work of freedom is never finished. In a Berlin under siege, President Kennedy said, “Freedom is indivisible, and when one man is enslaved, all are not free.” Few would have foreseen on that day that a united Germany would be led by a woman from Brandenburg or that their American ally would be led by a man of African descent. But human destiny is what human beings make of it.
RUSH: You had nothing to do with it! The fall of the Berlin Wall had nothing to do with somebody from Africa being elected president of the United States, or some woman from Brandenburg becoming the chancellor of Germany. It was not about that. They want to take all these events and say, “Oh, look at what happens when we all work together!” We didn’t all work together! The Soviets resisted it. Erich Honecker resisted it. The whole Soviet empire resisted it. They had no choice in the end. There was only one guy who… American liberals said it was silly to suggest we could ever defeat the Soviets. We had to stay friendly with them. One man—and one woman: Margaret Thatcher. How in hell you don’t mention her, either. But that’s Obama. Everything is about him.
Hey, didn’t he want to do his 2008 sermon thing at the Brandenburg Gate and they wouldn’t let him? So I guess there’s that.
