Old power politics?

Tuesday 11 December 2012

So if you look at the photos of some of our politicians, one might start to wonder: How in motion to play the same as always, the young faces initially fall rapidly that any beautician despair and every cosmetic surgeon would roll up his sleeves.

Is it the stress that a lot of traveling, a lot of sitting, eating and drinking too much, too many words, too little sleep, the burden of responsibility?

Puzzle over mystery. Some examples of the work of destruction:

Peer Steinbrück, about 25 years ago (Source: NRW Landtag)

Peer Steinbrück, about 25 years ago in the NRW state parliament. Apart from that time still more hair sprouted: You see a mouth, showing its mouth upwards, approaches an upper lip are present, the lower lip is normal to full, overall an optimistic expression.

Picture below: Steinbrueck today. The lips are gone, the standard form in his mouth: an inverted "U", the mouth show steeply downward. Visually, the optimists to-peer problem. (more ...)

Today was a sad day

Tuesday 27 November 2012

Of view: Merkel, caution difficult to imitate in Frankfurt at Graumann with complicated hand gesture.

Because ... we were slandered, and the head of government of our own. What had happened? Actually, nothing. Angela Merkel had only visited the first council meeting of the Central Council of Jews, which took place in Frankfurt, and complained there, in Germany there was "a high degree of anti-Semitism", as the "world" reported .

In the same breath she expressed "their joy that it returned to Germany as a rich Jewish life" give.

Thus Merkel is absolutely right, a publication of the Central Council of Jews in the September 2009 draws on the successful growth of Jewish communities and Jewish life in Germany after the fall of the Berlin Wall Balance: (more ...)

Spain crisis in movie poster

Monday 08 October 2012

I never would have imagined that German taxpayers even have to stand up for Spanish banks.

When in 2007 Köfferchenträger knocked on the door of my former real estate and construction office on the Spanish south coast and to urgently demanded that also encourage immigrants to purchase homes, I knew what the clock had struck. A Romanian construction workers, for example, should after only 11 months (!) With a Spanish employment (nouns) are treated as a Spaniard, and obtain loans for house or apartment purchase. (A durchsschnittliche three-room apartment costed 150.000 Euros).

One need neither imagination nor expertise to imagine, can that an immigrant couple (he usually worked in construction, she cleaned) can offer no collateral except his labor force. Falls off only the cleaning job, the mortgage can no longer be operated. Now, however, both jobs were lost ... (more ...)

Christmas speech to Christian Wulff

Monday 26 December 2011

Bettina Queen and King Christian (source unknown)

Under the leadership of a black red medium campaign against our President has been out for weeks, until his Christmas speech.

Said medium did on a white waistcoat and tried all the bellicosity, war-mongering and constant horniness with the tears wet lips licking allegedly forgot to make. It really can not imagine so many sheepskins, as would be needed to cover this completely unbelievable hypocrisy.

What had gotten into the thick men? Front short "shit" is still on the Dr. and was located on the now fugitive couple No glamor. 1 do not see enough enough: The two ladies still embody exactly the same type of woman: Large, elegant, slightly nachgeblondet, dark button eyes.

For observers of the political scene was clear from the beginning that the arty generic operations around the Hanover "clique" must have been known long ago. Ugly - but certainly not all great moral Gau, as he is portrayed. (more ...)

The guarantee of the guarantee of savings

Sunday 13 November 2011

12/11/2011, one reads: "Merkel guarantee for savers remains. Chancellor Merkel has her promise from the year 2008 confirmed that the German savings were safe. , The nature of the guarantee is that the warranty is valid. '"

Since the German savers but are happy: Thank you, Thank you, Thank you! - But wait, what are savings? Who is a saver? If the credit is not guaranteed on a checking account? What types of investments are meant? Are we back as far as 2008 after the Lehman collapse? Will there be insecure citizens to deduct the money from their bank accounts? Maybe after the temporary downgrade of France, which meant a taste of the end of the euro?

Amusing is the belief of the policy that the Germans will be guaranteed to impress by this warranty the warranty. But where the principle of "illegal?-Any-alternative" guarantees that nobody can rely on anything yet, what policies or contracts once guaranteed.

Yes unfortunately also came to light in the meantime, what should we make of these politicians actually guarantees: "We knew that we are moving on thin ice. To put it bluntly: For such a commitment we really lacked the legitimacy There was no legal basis and no parliamentary support.. I wonder to this day that parliamentarians have never asked afterwards: For God's sake, what did you actually do there? "

Statement of the then Finance Minister Steinbrück in the " mirror "of 13.9.2010 .

On what legal basis now so the warranty is 2011? (more ...)

Russian moss (1) or: Green with Envy

Friday 07 August 2009

I will only pale green and then: Before envy. Among Vultures, the Treasure of Silver Lake, in the valley of death, Deerslayer, through the wild Kurdistan Winnetou ten, sigh, an Indian dream come true - the Pierre Brice of the East Riding over. With a brown horse in person at the eastern border of his vast empire along, and checks the state of the frontier forts on the Mongolian border in the province of Tuva. Freedom and adventure! The wilderness is calling!

Could we imagine in our Chancellor or our President us maybe? That the Chancellor would be called into the desert or wilderness? That there is not more well known in Germany, just as an eastern boundary. All this was long ago abolished, and one can hardly imagine any politician who personally pacing the border or would ride. Or you might imagine Merkel, as in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern on the border with Poland on the fresh fields begüllten a former LPG, now pig plant for 100,000 sows rides? (more ...)
