Barack 'Narcissus' Obama

Laer Pearce at Cheat Seeking Missiles is examining Barack Obama’s decision to have a big rally in Berlin and finds it just a wee bit . . . well, um, self absorbed?

Barack Obama’s planned Berlin speech is the result of egomaniacal overreach by the candidate and his staff. Obama, the new Kennedy. Obama, the new Reagan. Obama, the new Narcissus.

But Kennedy and Reagan spoke in a Berlin that was the symbolic core of the Cold War; it was a platform for bravely confronting a freedom-crushing Soviet empire with the rousing rhetoric of freedom. What is Berlin symbolic of today? Hedonism? Eurocentrism? Anyone? Anyone?

Couldn’t have said it better myself — well, I couldn’t! But like Ginsu, there’s more.

So, go and read it . . .
