Am not quite clear: Is James Wray the photographer? Photo #4, of Obama and whole of Victory column is quite a photo. I wonder how it'll play out of context of his speech today in Berlin?

'This is all VERY Impressive -- I mean the speech and adulation!'
His words are very impressive, until you realized that he flip flopps and lies so often that they are essentially meaningless. Then you are left with his record... 143 days inthe senate before he decided he was ready to become president.
No not very impressive.
I think the last comment was rather cynical. I'd like to focus on the hard work that we should be doing together, rather than sit back and point fingers while nothing changes. I guess it's easier to be cynical than to get up and contribute something positive to the world around you.
'rather than sit back and point fingers while nothing changes'
The interesting thing about your comment is:
(a) You have been sitting back and pointing fingers. Or what have you done to ouster Bush and his cronies?
(b) You are admitting that something is wrong and about half the population of the United States is wrong. So, with half the population 'doing something wrong', which I assume by that you mean 'mass killing muslims and taking over foreign governments and nations and generally bulling other nations' why do you think that a different president would solve things? There is still have of your citizens that want the current situation. How do you propose to inform them that they are stupid and killers? Or are you staying nothing is wrong? Or are you going to bail out and say something other than what is, denying reality just like the current administration does?
The thing I find most revolting about this election is the way people say the other side is wrong, but will not address the main issues:
(a) Incredible financial irresponsibility.
(b) Incredible military irresponsibility.
(c) Incredible infusion of christianity into a alleged religiously neutral constitutional government.
(d) Mass killing of muslims by christians.
(e) Etc, etc.
Barack Obama as next President of The United States of America
The die is cast and for reasons that only a privileged few know, you Sir, will be the next President of the United States of America. Your next 4 years will be a turning point in US history and planet earth. CHANGE, your advisors and high stake investors offer the nation will undoubtedly be the same rhetoric and empty promises that make up a political campaign, that campaigns for appointment for any public office in America.
The White House will be the Black House to some, the Aryan Brothers of America will not be so happy, but yet will blame you and your staff if you fail, which will reinforce their belief that the Aryan Nation is the true leader for America. The religious zealots will be busy bees making nests to survive the onslaught of lies, corruption and deceit. Business enterprises and other competing nations will capitalize off of your inexperience in the art of corruption and murder. The organized crime organizations from different nations including our own will benefit from the lack of control over national crime.
Military governments including our own will test your tolerance to pain and deception and trick you into needless and profitable domestic and international conflict. You will no doubt attempt to colorize your staff to soften the race conflict once in office.
As President you will be President. Nations will respect you only for your title of office. Americans will soon see after your appointment as President that your intentions were manipulated by those that make the rules. You will fill the spot in history as planned, and nothing more.
You will never while in office be able to pull the troops from conflict in any land we are engaged in. As a matter of fact we as a nation will be engaged in a new conflict of war, which will galvanize Americans to seek a different form of government and a different and honest Congress.
You will attempt to shore up Americas problems with false promise and lies, because you cannot directly affect the CHANGE you promised.
Your frustration will be your downfall while in office, and your co-dependence on those that you trust will also add to your demise.
Our Armed Forces in rank will respect you as good soldiers they are, but those under them will not, and for good reasons, that only a good soldier knows.
America will not be America until its government respects the People, and tells the truth. America is a Republic, not a Democracy or Fascist Government or is it?
Until you can walk thru the streets and neighborhoods of America unaided by Secret Service or any other law enforcement agency you will not be respected by the many, only by the fearful and selfish few. Americans can protect their leaders if they are honest and respectful of the people they were elected to serve. Our Government has forsaken us for many hundreds of years, and now we will wait until your 4 years are finished for us to come to fruition.
CHANGE FOR AMERICA FOR AMERICANS!
The American Republic
A Sovereign Republic
Patriot:
'Americans will soon see after your appointment as President that your intentions were manipulated by those that make the rules.'
Ah, I see. Another finger pointer, point the blame on some ether reality.
The raw fact is: The president of the U.S. and 1/2 the U.S. citizens like killing muslims. They do what they like. That is called: Freedom. Which they value greatly.
Do not attempt to make up an imaginary voodoo doll poking the president and the U.S. citizens. The United States does what it wants and is not controlled by some fictitious dominating power.
Essentially: What you see is what you got.
(a) Mass killing of muslims.
(b) Mass invasion of other countries.
(c) Covert manipulation of countries via insurrection forces.
(d) Wild and mind blowing irresponsible financial unaccountability.
(e) The list is endless
Time to stop blaming imaginary forces and taking a heads on approach.
These comments just go to show you how widespread drug abuse is in this country.
'These comments just go to show you how widespread drug abuse is in this country.'
True. When someone runs up a ten trillion dollar debt, invades another country for reasons that are false, bails out fraudulent industries, etc. then they must be on drugs.
Who are you to call yourself PATRIOT?
You are another blogger claiming fame and hype as your buddy Osama.
You know nothing of business as your cocaine abused brain believes nationalizing our oil industry would be just a smashing idea.
I guess you would love to see a gallon of oil cost $345.00 a barrel.
Why dont you nationalize your mama so she does not have any more idiot kids as yourself.
America needs to drill its Alaskan, Colorado, Dakotas, California, and Gulf regions and pull out some of the estimated 247 BILLION BARRELS OF OIL!
