Stefan Sirucek: Great Expectations
Sort by The Huffington Post (Free subscription) - 07/24/2008
Here in Berlin tomorrow, Obama will deliver a major speech in front of the "Victory Column." The interesting question is, perhaps, not what will Obama say -- but what can he say.

Tear Down This Presidency!
Sort by Atlas Shrugs (Free subscription) - 11/09/2009
On the twentieth anniversary of one of freedom's monumental moments, one of America's finest moments, the fall of the Berlin Wall, Obama is MIA. Huh? Yes, the mirror man who has never met a camera or teleprompter he didn't fall head of heels in love with is NOT at the anniversary of the Fall of the Wall. He sent a video. I kid you not. He went to a meeting of the Organization of the Islamic Conference...

Obama v. Reagan on Patriotism
Sort by Red State (Free subscription) - 05/05/2008
Barack Obama wants to redefine patriotism. Isn't that like trying to redefine water? When Democrats try to redefine an American ideal or institution, it is usually because the traditional American view makes them uncomfortable or offends them. So rather than try to figure out why they are out of the mainstream, they simply redefine it. The Washington Post tries to help Obama in his quest to redefine...

A President Who Knew When to Cast Off the Neocons
Sort by Cato-at-liberty (Free subscription) - 06/12/2008
I’m reminded that today is the anniversary of Ronald Reagan’s “tear down this wall” speech in Berlin: It’s a useful reminder that while Reagan included key neoconservatives in his administration, particularly in his first term, most of them always suspected that he was a fool, incapable or unwilling to take the heels-dug-in position that would bring [...]

Obama’s Speech In Germany
Sort by The Moderate Voice (Free subscription) - 07/25/2008
So now you’ve read blog posts about the controversy surrounding Democratic presumptive Presidential party nominee Sen. Barack Obama’s speech in Germany. Was it cravenly political? A campaign document? Was it reminiscent of JFK’s or Ronald Reagan’s speeches from Berlin, or was it clearly anchored in a different time and generation? Did you hear or read about it on talk shows (left and right) with their...

Profiles in Countermoonbattery: Ronald W. Reagan

Little need be said about this man, this legend, the finest United States president in modern history. He fought against and ultimately defeated one of the the greatest scourges in the name of moonbattery-cum-tyranny perpetrated on this planet: Soviet Communism....

I just visited the 9/11 memorial at the Pentagon today and the Holocaust Museum in Washington DC. Those experiences, among others, have led me to this note. To everyone else, sorry, this is one of those times I’m going to get into politics. If you don’t like that, come back tomorrow when I’ll be at AT&T and [...]

The fall of the Berlin Wall: And now to the videotape
Sort by Fausta's blog (Free subscription) - 11/11/2009
As we all know, Obama had a busy, busy Monday and didn’t attend the celebration of the 20th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall. Instead he sent a videotaped speech which you can listen to here (please note it’s instant-play). Of course, not a word about Ronald Reagan. Via Ace, did Obama not show [...]

Fall Of The Berlin Wall: OBAMA Has Forgotten About FREEDOM
Sort by YID With LID (Free subscription) - 11/09/2009
The Berlin Wall was the physical representation of the "Cold War." The structure across the city of Berlin was not built to protect Communist Germany from the forces of freedom, it was constructed to keep the East Germans from fleeing communism. During the 750th anniversary of the founding of the city of Berlin, President Reagan explained the reasons the wall had to come down in a way no other POTUS...

Honoring the President Who Defeated Communism

It is a fitting tribute on the 20th Anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall to rightly note the man who challenged the evils of Communism, rallied his nation behind him and defeated the oppressive regimes. German Chancellor Angela Merkel has history right as she told our US Congress last week. America won the [...]

Barack Obama in Berlin, Germany: One day's dairy in the city
Sort by Gadling (Free subscription) - 07/25/2008
Filed under: Germany Barack Obama has come and gone. Here in Berlin, the dust has settled, the public transportation is back running normally and today, the day after Obama's history-making, if not perhaps history-defining, speech, the German media all seem to conclude the same thing: Was that it? Consider today's Web version of the weekly Die Zeit, which concludes: "There was the hope for this one...

It was twenty years ago today…

The Berlin Wall came down twenty years ago today. So this might be a good time to take a look at Ronald Reagan's “Tear down this wall” speech from June of 1987.
