UPDATED: Touring Europe like he was the President, Obama woo’s voters.
Senator Obama took a tour this week to several countries. Stopping in Afghanistan, Iraq, Israel, Germany and France.
Over 200 thousand stood and listened to his speech that was not a campaign speech. Promising to reunite Europe with the US and mend the hurt feelings of the Europeans.
He has all but done the Presidential victory tour before the election has even occurred. Given the Presidential foreign policy speeches in various countries before he is the official elected representative of the United States.
His campaigning in Europe has garnered much support for his empty rhetoric. It is amusing how the recycled speeches he has used here have given him even more of an ego boost in Europe.
After 16 months of campaigning, with all the verbiage he could have recycled or improved upon for his big European debut, this is the line he deemed sufficiently immortal to warrant repeating verbatim. Barack Obama, oratorical genius. – HotAir
Where is it that he has actually won the Election? Who does he think he is? The President? The Hubris is astounding.
Why can’t people understand that he is nothing but fluff and circumstance? Changing his mind when it suits him and saying what you want to hear.
Update: Maybe it was only 20 thousand, not 200 thousand.
ZDF Berlin studio chief Peter Frey added, “We do estimate that 20,000 [literally, "a couple of ten thousand"] people have turned out.”
