Boys and girls, this is what happens to you if you watch too much Bugs Bunny. Now, actually there isn't such a thing as "too much Bugs Bunny," but there is a fine line somewhere.

A Berliner is a type of jelly donut, true. But Kennedy said it properly and his detractors have managed to keep this alive for almost 50 years.

Re: Eddie Izzard: Ich Bin Ein Berliner

You are right, spam, and also is Izzard. "Ich bin ein Berliner" can mean both, but in this context "I am a donut." wouldn't seem seem logical for those who listened to the speech. "Ich bin ein..." just means "I am one of many...".

Re: Eddie Izzard: Ich Bin Ein Berliner

Ich bin Berliner = I am from Berlin.

Ich bin 'ein' Berliner = I am a jelly doughnut.
