Germans are calling President Obama verrueckt (crazy); Gen. Alexander ganz schoen dumm (pretty damn dumb).

(Ray tells RTTV it may be the other way around.)

This is new; until now, U.S. presidents – even George W. Bush – have generally been spared this kind of vituperative name calling in serious German media. Does Obama know all that has been going on; or has he been sparsely informed, in order to give him latitude for “plausible denial?”
