Huge political rallies in Germany make me nervous, especially when the center of attention is a junior US Senator who is bending over backward to apologize to the children and grandchildren of the genocidal Third Reich for past misdeeds of his own great nation. As Erik Erickson writes, "Not Since 1939 Have So Many Germans Turned Out To Hear A Politician in Berlin."No, I am NOT comparing Obama to Hitler, not at all. He's no Nazi, he's a Marxist Communist. Duh.
There are eerie similarities between the old Hitler rallies (the mania, the hyperemotion, the Leni Riefenstahl-esque production quality) and the recent massive rallies for Obama, another charismatic faux messiah. Riefenstahl's best known effort was Triumph of the Will, a propaganda film that documented a 1943 Nazi rally in Nuremberg. She documented many of Hitler's other rallies and speeches and had a heavy influence on the choreography of those events. Many of Obama's photos are weirdly reminiscent of Riefenstahl's portrait work. Coincidence? Or inspiration?
Obama recently drew a crowd in Germany that was estimated at 200,000. Let's see, get my calculator out here... at the end of 2004, Germany's population was 82.5 million. 82,500,000 minus 200,000... that leaves at least 82,300,000 Germans who did not attend the rally.
Germans - that is, Germans who are not citizens of the Unites States - can't vote in the US, although the Democrat Party is undoubtedly working to overcome that problem. The Democrats already register hundreds of thousands of illegal aliens in the US, and encourage them to vote. Democrat salivary glands must have been working overtime at the sight of 200,000 non-Americans at a rally. "Ach," they must be thinking to themselves, "eef only vee could get deezen Volken zu voten!"
