Daniel Larison makes a good point : Besides being paranoid , the idea that McCain's genuinely weak "Celeb" ad draws from Triumph of the Will is remarkable for something else: its implicit contempt for modern Germans. It is not much better than the pro-war German-bashing that took place during 2002-03 when war supporters frequently complained that the Germans had lost their former enthusiasm for conflict....

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...

Now is as good as time as ever to post that image. Obama is wrapping up his presidential factfinding tour of the world. I post this because I think my friends outside the US care about this election almost as much as I do. Obama will be a citizen of the world, not a bully . I believe he can restore our image abroad and he made a strong attempt yesterday in Germany . For those really into it, The New...

I didn't like this speech as much as some of his previous ones. Too much feel-goodism at the beginning. And I'm not sure his idea of adding more troops to Afghanistan is a good idea. I liked what he said about securing nuclear material and reducing nuclear arsenals, though. This is one of many security concerns that the Bush administration hasn't emphasized enough. Content of the speech aside, the...

People of Berlin – and people of the world – the scale of our challenge is great. The road ahead will be long. But I come before you to say that we are heirs to a struggle for freedom. We are a people of improbable hope. With an eye toward the future, with resolve in our hearts, let us remember this history, and answer our destiny, and remake the world once again . ~ Senator Barak Obama , Berlin ,...
