Will there be Communists for Obama in 2008? It seems that there already are 75,000 in Oregon. Oh well. There will always be the People’s Cube.

Right. Like the 75,000 people in Portland who flocked to see a band that is usually lucky to fill 1000 seats.

The 200,000 souls who thronged to his speech in Berlin came not just for him, he told the enthralled audience of congressional representatives.
They came for the beer and the free rock concert, the beer, the brats, and don’t forget the beer.
Oh…and for hopiness and changeyness.

It's funny that a media that is "fawning, gushing, and lusting after him — and shamelessly working to elect him" would twist a humble quote into something malicious. The entire quote:
