I just heard it: Schröder participates at the Funeral Ceremony for Reagan. The Federal President is having his last dinner with the Governors of the 16 states on Friday, so he cannot attend.

Schroeder's participation is an insult to Reagan's memory. Don't you guys have someone with some stature who can be respected to send to represent Germany? Kohl, of course, comes as a private citizen. The Federal President could surely move the dinner a week. Back to my earlier, lighthearted, suggestion: and perhaps a couple of Wittlesbachs thrown in for footmen.
