I was in Berlin December, 1989. I went to the Berlin Wall and slammed a hammer the whole afternoon. I found it interesting that most of the people at that section were Americans and mostly from Texas.
I felt exhilirated each time I struck the wall. It was another blow for freedom.
I had a small American flag on the chest pocket of the leather jacket I was wearing. Whenever I was in the U-Bahn, East Germans came up to me to hug me.
Senator Obama is not just AWOL from history. He’s even AWOL from recent and current events. That is no president.
