#3 Which Fairy-tale is this, and what part does Obama play? Looks like Hansel & Gretel, with Obama being the wicked witch. We are at the point in the story where the urchins are being lured into the Ginger Bread House.

#10 "Not only no, but hell no," Speretch.

At least that's what I was taught. A word-for-word translation would substitute "Hölle" (Hell), but apparently the Germans don't say it that way - they use "Scheiße" instead. (I should have capitalized the "s" but tend to forget - I left Germany in 1973.)

But they do say "zum Teufel" (go to the Devil) or "zur Hölle" (go to Hell). Go figure. ;-p
