    obama's rabble rousing speech reminded me of Hitler's speeches ...

    Except obama's lasted just a few minutes whereas Hitler
    could rant on for two hours at a stretch without notes.
    The only resemblance was the intensity and the lies plus
    the hysterical screaming of the mob. What was missing
    was the ending Sieg Heil. Maybe he'll include it next time.

    You listen in the German I'm guessing, for full effect.

      A whole speech without yuge or bigly?

        Your grammar needs some attention.

          His grammar disowned him -- and his parents, too.

              Actually it's fine. Put that way to perk you up. Nothing wrong with a definite article in front of the noun.

                  Low German, not Hochdeutsch.

                    Hitler didn't have to pause 30 seconds between sentences to figure out what to say next.

                      Being obtuse? I thought 'understated' was the essential British quality.

                          I agree!! It was a funeral for a respected man. O'Bama's speech was not appropriate in any way and was rude to the deceased's family.

                              Had you actually watched it you would not think so. From the clips shown he was the high point for everyone there. Lewis was a civil rights leader passing in the midst of another key point in the movement, and he left a posthumous op-ed in the NYT mirroring Obama's eulogy.
