Angela Merkel Is A Disgrace
Poletical.com ^ | February 1st, 2016 | D. Stone

The hot tub Kallweit wrote about in the German press was at an historic bath house called the Wilhelmine Zwichau Johannis baths. The events were corroborated by local bathers and city officials. It was also reported that one of the migrants took selfies of himself with a smartphone. The famous bath house has since banned migrants from entering.

In the midst of Angela Merkel's disdainful complacency and willingness to appease progressives, the German people have become louder with every passing day. Something has begun to brew in Germany that might derail Angela Merkel's leadership and open the door – wide open – for a right-wing ascendancy.

It's difficult to call Merkel's Christian Democrats conservative. They're closer to what Americans and Canadians would call Bernie Democrats or socialists. The right-wing solution to Merkel and her Bavarian Christian coalition lives in a party called Alternative For Germany, or the AfD. In fact, even her coalition partners in the Christian Social Union have criticized Merkel's open border policy. Without their support, Merkel's coalition government would collapse.

Do people realize that if Angela Merkel is defeated somebody far more to the left is going to be taking her place?

Of course she’s a disgrace, she is a member of the Socialist Party of Germany. She’ll just love Bernie.

I hope the German people stand, and take command of their situation. I hope they don’t allow another whacked out nutcase take them for a ride again.

That goes for us too.

It is long past time for the German populace to initiate the Ceausescu Protocol.

At this point, whatever it takes to provoke a popular reaction.

I have wondered how political parties of other countries “map” to our own. I realize that the comparisons would be imperfect at best.

I hope I am behind her on Judgment Day. I will have a hell of a time myself, but at least I’d get to see what happens to her before I get what’s coming to me.

If the 2016 election does not address America’s serious problems, America will soon be in dire straits.

does it matter? letting the invasion begin made all future leaders moot.

there is no future now.

that’s like saying rubio is better than clinton. i wouldn’t vote for him.

20 million illegals are 20 million illegals whether rubio or hillary lets them in.

The FDP: Middle of U.S. Democratic Party

The CDU (and its Bavarian "sister" party, the CSU): Extreme left wing of the U.S. Democratic Party

The SPD: The far, extreme left wing of the U.S. Democratic Party

The Linke: The American Communist Party

The AfD and Pirate Party: Both comparable to the U.S. Libertarian Party

I’d like the AfD to get enough seats that the CDU has to go into coalition with them. The current government is a “grand coalition” with the socialists cause in the last election Merkel’s previous coalition partners, the Free Democrats, came in under the election threshold and lost all their seats, CDU gained but not as many as the FDP lost. I remember Freepers that didn’t get it celebrating that election as if the results were good.

Looks like CDU/CSU and AFd together might win a majority, may or may not need the FDP (polling around 5%, the threshold) as well. The question is might Merkel rather keep the grand coalition with the SDP rather than go in with the Afd, and what would the CSU have to say about that.

In Austria the main center-right party chose to remain as the JUNIOR partner in GC with the socialists there rather than lead a coalition with 2 other right of center parties. Revolting.

In any case, I’d like see Merkel step down and allow the CDU to get a new leader, it’s time.

Election is a while off unless the government falls. Polling as of now doesn’t show a majority for the leftist parties in the cards, even a first place finish by the SPD seems unlikely, their poll numbers are entirely stagnant since the last election, no one in Europe seems to thrive being the junior partner in a coalition.
