This from National Review Online’ s Jim Geraghty:
‘There comes a time when we heed a certain call.’
There was not a ton to object to, and indeed a lot to like, in Obama’s speech in Berlin. Although I think I preferred it the first time I heard it, when it was sung by all those celebrities and rock stars back in the mid-80s.
Oh, wait, that was “We Are The World.”
Geraghty goes on to issue a pop quiz to readers: “Pick out the “We Are The World” lyrics vs. Obama speech lines.”
Take the quiz here. It’s actually harder than you’d think…
