Obama Passes on Trip to Brandenburg Gate


Obama passed up the opportunity to go to Berlin, drink some good beer, eat some sauerbraten and celebrate the 20th anniversary of the fall of the Berliner Mauer (Berlin Wall) while basking in the company of Merkel and other conservative German politicians. Why am I not surprised? It is ironic that that little more than a year ago, Obama gave his "citizens of the world" speech; a socialist diatribe in a spot sacred to freedom and democracy. While Merkel and friends celebrate the fall of the wall and Communism, Obama will be conspicuously absent. Maybe the President wishes the wall was still up.
