#1 Yeah, it's hard to understand a cluster f*** until you are in the middle of one.

#5 I know at least one guy who has been in the Situation Room and still doesn't understand a thing.

#6 Oh I heard Obama held a speech in Berlin.
I think he wants World Peace (TM) or something like that.

He's no beauty queen though

#10 I've seen the vaunted photos of the situation room. I make the same face in my situation room, except I know what I'm doing and it gets done. Even file the paperwork.

#12 Does it have a Reality Distortion Field?

OBumbles generates his own field. But Biden's is stronger (and stranger....).

#13 Just to explain to you in what kind of bubble Obama lives (and acts).

You might see him speaking in front of the Brandenburg Gate, and you'll see about 4000 people cheering.

Ordinary Berliners? Nope. Everyone was personally invited and scrutinized. Regular citizens of Berlin had zero chance to get anywhere near the Brandenburg Gate on this day.

And those "personally invited" weren't even allowed to carry a water bottle (temperature was 35°C in the shade but there was no shade).

#14 Xerxes is on the move !

Are we entirely certain the 4000-6000 in Berlin are not part of the emperor's main body, as opposed to locals ?

#15 Those interviewed spoke flawless American English, but not from Texas or Georgia

#16 From his speech:

"No wall can stand against the yearning of justice, the yearnings for freedom, the yearnings for peace that burns in the human heart."

Umm yes, unless you take a liking to Tea Party ideals. Then the hounds of the IRS may be let loose.
