Well, you'll certainly find childishness on any internet forum of this size. I have been frustrated reading the stupid things said about New Orleans policemen as if they were all looters and thugs. My nephew is a New Orleans cop who stayed on duty and did his job during all of the hurricane and its aftermath. Thanks for the info about Schroder.
It was probably just some dumb kid. Nothing to really worry about.
It looks like Germany will be forced into a "Grand Coalition" with the conservatives and the leftists biting the bullet and forming a bipartisan government possibly with neither Merkel or Schroeder as Chancellor. A compromise Prime Minister might be chosen from one of the third parties(Most likely the Free Democrats) or the German equivalent of a "RINO" in the US might be selected.
As of today, right leaning parties have 286 seats and left leaning parties have 328(including the Left Party's 54)
Also, if Schroeder bites his tongue, swallows hard and goes back on his promise to not include the Left Party in a coalition, he can still be Chancellor.
If Merkel bites her tongue, swallows hard, gets down on her knees and begs and looks like a sell out political opportunst, she can possibly get the Green Party in her coalition and become Chancellor. Whew!
The city of Dresden in former East Germany could give Schroeder the seats he needs to tie Merkel when they vote the first week of October. Dresden is like American Republicans hoping for a majority of votes in the District of Columbia.
