#1 this is disappointing. But I am somewhat suspicious as the entire article reads like nasty blog entry. While the facts presented here are disheartening, I hope this is just an attempt to smear her with a narrow focus on specific events that don't reflect her overall direction.

I have a suggestion: How 'bout if we ship all these guys, unflushed Korans and all, to Germany?

I've got a better suggestion: How 'bout if we shoot all the illegal combatants at Gitmo and then just don't take any more illegal combatants as prisoners. Shoot them on the battlefield, as required by "international law."

I'm sure the Euros will be impressed by our following the Geneva Conventions to the letter.

And if is will make the Germans happier, we can ship the corpses to them and they can parole the corpses to Lebanon.

#3 TGA has have ulcers by now over Merkel. I'm sorely disappointed that she's a twit - he must be crushed. Sigh. Wotta total fucking SchrÃ¶derific moron she's turned out to be.

#4 Bush is a nice guy. Really. However, who do you think is going to be around when he's no longer President. Like maybe a few million Americans who's view of Ms. Merkel's country is not ever going to raise above the basement its now in. Just think happy thoughts Chancellor because the damage is structural and unlikely ever to be repaired. You're best bet is to play nice with the Poles and have them represent your interests for a generation.

#5 I think all the inmates at Guantanamo should be put in one big remote-controlled airliner, and flown directly to Frankfurt. On the way these same inmates should attempt to seize control of the aircraft and, all chanting "Allahu Akhbar!", fly it straight into the middle of the Atlantic with the loss of all on board. But then, what do I know?

#6 I agree with Merkel.
We should immediately execute all of the prisoners and close the prison.

#7 Good lord, another few years of an irrelevant Germany. She will be singing a different tune in three years when she is begging the CIA for help in solving her little Muzzie problem in Germany. I only hope that this was a propaganda effort to apease the left.

#8 Darn, no politician in Europe has really balls. Even the symbolic ones. Like Iron Lady Margaret once upon a time. I did not like much her personality, but did not care about that, she had her head screwed on right.
