Former German Chancellor Gerhard Schroeder, a fierce critic of the Bush administration, said Saturday that he's pulling for U.S. Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton to win the White House.

"I'd be very pleased if Hillary Clinton would become the next American president," Schroeder said to applause from a largely Saudi audience at the Jeddah Economic Forum, which opened here Saturday. "But don't quote me too loud. I hope I'm not harming her by saying that."

Schroeder made the statement during a discussion of global women leaders at a gender-segregated theater where a plastic barrier separated women from men.

Great news! Mr. S is in tight with Putin. Maybe he could get Mrs. Clinton a good job with Putin as well.

He's an ex-chancellor and she's an ex-first lady. I like it like that.

Exactly. The fact that he is the "EX" chancellor speaks volumes as to his credibility.

Schroeder should be the new Chairman of the DNC after they flip Dizzy Dean.

Memo to Gerhard Schroeder: As you are one of the most despised ex-foreign leaders in the USA,your support for the beast from the East is greatly appreciated and necessary for her run for the presidency. Please come to the U.S. and speak in her behalf as much as possible as the American people think you are lower than whale manure (along with your friends in France), and this will really help Hitlery gain a foothold in her candidacy. Please hurry and please keep shooting her campaign in the ass. Thanks!

Why is Germany interferring with their adversary's elections once again?

You would think after getting pounded in two world wars he Germany would learn a lesson and respect another nations sovereignity.

Schroeder (the German, not the Pianist) needs to be watched. Someone must be checker of the ex-Chancellor.
