1. Wow...

That's uh...clever.

Golly. Apparently, a couple of the 200,000+ who showed up at Obama's rally in Berlin aren't very well informed.

Thank GOD we don't have any uninformed voters in this country...otherwise, you might have a significant portion of the voting population who think that one of these candidates is a Muslim...

Or was sworn in on the Quran...

Or won't hold his hand over his heart during the Pledge of Allegiance...

God Bless American Exceptionalism! For it has freed us from being ignorant...like those filthy Germans!!

(/snark...DUH.)

Oh, and BTW...RNC, if you're going to rip off the Daily Show, please try to be a TAD less blatant.

13. And some of those Germans speak poor English!

Which is probably where most of what they have used herein comes from: if they'd been asked to reply in German, I bet the responses would have been more coherent.

2. Now that's just downright hilarious.

What amazing talent they have working for the RNC! I'm sure this is really going to help McCain get elected. (not)

5. Ohhh MY GOD!!!!!!

Some German guy says he has friends in the US....and they're Marxists! .....and they work for Obama!

Well, that's it folks, he's obviously a Muslim...or made of muslin....or something...

11. the thing is...

the guy's tone was that even his Marxist friends in the US are working for Obama, i.e. policy-wise they wouldn't support him, but he's Obama!

I know that won't get through to low-informat(morons)ion voters, but it's amazing that they have a guy basically saying Obama is absolutely not a Marxist (or else it wouldn't require commenting!).

This is just epic fail. Please tell me that the RNC actually spent some money making this.

10. Berlin...Thats in Germany...

"Very good, Republicans" (Team America) This can't be the RNC. More likely the work of some you tuber. However if this is the RNC, God help us all..

12. yet it sounded like only two of the people were even German...

The first guy sounded kind of Irish to me, then a pair of Germans, then what sounded like Australians, some dude from who knows where, then maybe some Germans at the end.

Well, maybe there actually are WMDs in Iraq and these Republicans are just too incompetent to find them: they were in Berlin and only found about three or four Germans.
