Back when the Iraq war started coming up again I was very happy to have Schroeder in the position my vote was aiming for, earlier. Early on I was checking who's for what, and who might be best in charge of what, I was even more convincend. With other people in power - they might have just simply joined in to invade the Iraq despite the whole country was up in mass protests.
Okay, so now - these politicians messed up alright. I believe that most everyone else would've messed up too, or gone to too great lengths to avoid it.
And the price everybody is paying for "freedom" at the moment is annoying. A few years ago I would've just said there's a price to be paid for reasonable security. By now it's a monthly fee. Depending on what kind of ideas this Schily person comes up with next.
I've kept my eyes on the CDU now, wondering what they have in store for the future. Sadly though, there is nothing much, nothing much new.
Now, I've never voted for them and here's their chance. But if they choke up Merkel for chancellor - like - really, they'll definately not get my vote, even if all their other plans look good.
Merkel will not push this country forward. Merkel is pushing herself foward quite happily; and that's all she's ever been about.
Since yesterday I've had been listening to a few things the greens were discussing. A lot of opinions I like - right there. Now, if they got people with guts to bring them forth, they might get my vote again, too. I always liked underdogs anyway.
