I don’t really know what happened to/with this guy, but it’s a distraction. Focus on the debt ceiling, the sequester and the 24 dead children of Newtown, that should be enough to fill everybody’s mind…
Serious question, when Reagan gave his speech in Bitburg Germany it was seen here by some as an OK to fascism and Nazism. How was the speech seen in Germany by Germans?
The over rated T’eo was like his invisible girlfriend on Jan. 7 when Alabama came to town. Why is he even news?
As far as the Yankee press is concerned there is rarely a word about any University of Alabama Crimson Tide player or the most successful college football program in NCAA history. Fifteen national champsionships, 23 SEC championships, more bowl appearances than any university/college, 100’s of players sent to the NFL… Harry Gilmer, Bobby Luna, Joe Namath, Kenny Stabler, Lee Roy Jordan, Richard Todd, Ozzie Newsome, the Hannah brothers, Cornelius Bennett, Mark Ingram, Trent Richardson, Julio Jones… etc.
Don’t worry, keep your eyes on the Big 10, Notre Dame and USC… we’ll keeping pounding away until someday… someone will take notice.
Manti T’eo is a collegiate American football player at Notre Dame University- one of the most popular and successful programs in the US. He told a story of an online girlfriend, whom he never met, that died of leukemia just before a major game. This story built up a lot of sympathy among the public. Turns out she never existed.

Morty, sorry if our news cycle and political agenda doesn’t interest you. Truth be told, the American public has a pretty short attention span and they are probably more concerned now with American Idol and numerous other “reality” shows than the issues you bring up.
Sorry, I can’t answer that. I don’t remember the speech, not even what it was about. I could go to Wikipedia and look it up, but that would be cheating.

What I can tell you is that I personally stood in some godforsaken muddy field and held hands with some people I never met before to form a “peace chain” against the Pershing-2 rockets. Zero warning time, worse than Cuba…

And I can also tell you that no German would ever think that any U.S. President would “OK” fascism and Nazism, but most Germans don’t know a lot about U.S. politics. I personally would not be so sure.

You guys sided with the communist USSR against Germany (Yalta). You send convoys full of tanks to Joseph Stalin himself. The lesser of two evils, or so you calculated. Realpolitik (a truly German word). Ronny might have, but I don’t know. He’s dead, RIP…
Quite the opposite, your news cycle fascinates me! As long as it contains news…

What import does this virtual girlfriend of his have on your daily life? None. What import would a default on the full faith and credit of the United States have on your life? A lot.

I simply can not understand how people can be so easily distracted. Can they really go to bed without the fear of a depression worse than 1928 creeping back into their heads? That would be a remarkable feat of human psychology…
Called "the Thomas Nast of his time" by The National Review magazine, Payne is an informed journalist whose investigative writing has also made national headlines.
