Say what you will about Europe and the political wisdom of Obama's trip overseas, you have to admit that it was awesome to see 200,000 foreigners excited about America again. 200,000! Look closely at the picture and you can see American flags everywhere. How cool is that?
Meanwhile, McCain was eating lunch in a German restaurant just down the street from me. I should have gone and shared a sausage with him. Guten Appetit!

Cool picture, but I am not getting the title. I even read the words to the post three times.
You might have to walk me through this one, Bryan.
Renee,
It goes back to John Kennedy's famous speech in Berlin in 1963.
Wikipedia: "According to an urban legend, Kennedy allegedly made an embarrassing grammatical error by saying 'Ich bin ein Berliner,' referring to himself not as a citizen of Berlin, but as a common pastry [a jelly doughnut]."
It is the most famous mistake that never happened.
Bryan
Ah, I see. :)
I knew it had to be a clever reference to something, but I wasn't clever enough myself to get it.
Thanks, Bryan.
