Hi, friends,
I thought we had the most tall idiots in Germany, were you may even ask a
permission to go to the toilet,
and when you have filed that permission and get an answer, the case is
over- off course then they ask you
why you wanted that permission.
But i must confess, I am wrong, your idiots are much taller- send them to
hell or to Afghanistan and fight for
the democracy. Or better send them to Texas.
Having some business in eastern Germany, after some time I have come to the
conclusion, that the
communists have not been so drastic than the so called democrats , because
these people at least left some
human heart feeling, and they were not so much organized than our beloved
governors , which are obviously only
democratic painted. Nobody seems to cut them and have a look into their
inside- every body would be ashamed
to look at their truth.
Have a nice Christmas and shout loud about it -Piece on Earth??????.- My
friend in Singapore, being a democratic
Chinese a piece always a piss of whatever- he seems to be right.
