Go On, Tell The Truth!

 

1. Yes the German government is fucked.
   Let me say something good about individual Germans.  No, let me tell the joke first:  “When the Germans drove jews to the extermination camps, they obeyed all the traffic laws”.
   Now on with the good stuff.
   My “German son” Matthias was appalled by American public high school. (he was an exchange student) “What is this? Stalag 17?” You don’t need metal detectors and cops with guns in schools at home.  He was right.
   He was told to go to “Study Hall”. So he went to the cafeteria to study—as he was told.  He did not understand that in America you need to put kids all in one room and guard them in order for them to “study”. And even then… A cop escorted him to the principal’s office, where he charmed himself into a job in the office.  I still love that kid.

2. "Plus pull ALL our troops from Germany.  I’d like to see what would happen to their economy then[...]”

   Actually nothing would happen to their economy. Those “fucking Krauts” (using your words) are exporting MORE and (as I may add) high quality products than the US. I´m not kidding. I didn´t believe it as well, until I did some research on the numbers. They don´t need us for their economy. We´re not talking about a little nation here, but the 3rd most powerful (economy wise, maybe even army wise) country in the world. If you actually are that dumb to believe what you wrote, I pity you.

   Ask ANY US veteran who has been stationed in Germany (like me), they´ll tell you those folks over there are damn fine people. Just because they didn´t support our little war on Saddam doesn´t mean they HATE us or LOVE Saddam.

   Something like 7000 of their troops - fellow soldiers - cover OUR asses in ´stan and on the Balkans. Without them, weßd have something like 15.000 of our guys LESS in Iraq. Makes you think, doesn´t it.

   I´ll go and have one of those over-priced schnitzels now…
