Obama's European Change/Hope Tour

By now virtually every political voice in the blogosphere has weighed in on Barack Obama's overseas Change/Hope tour, so I'm a bit hesitant to opine with an opinion that mirrors millions. Besides, if I skip that story I'm left with more time to blog about issues like hot dog danger.

The fact is that my opinion has already been summarized in an OP-ED by Robert A. George over at Booker Rising.

Sen. Obama speaking before 200,000 Germans is quite impressive - if he is running for president of the United Nations. However, he is not. He is running for president of the United States. Not a good image if he wants to counter the claim that he won't fight for American interests, even if Europeans or whomever don't like it. [Is] he gonna fight for me, or is he more concerned about Hans Weitzer's opinion over in Berlin?

Barack Obama's ego has no limit and the frightening hum a Euro-adoration seems to have inspired it to greater heights. The man who would post campaign posters on a Jewish holy site and then complain about a lack of reverence from the gathered crowd is beginning to believe the messianic language of his followers. The reality of the American condition and circumstance abroad have taken a back seat to the cult of personality. Proceed at your own peril.

It's really worth a read!
