Chancellor Angela Merkel Just paid America a Visit, does anyone Care?

I think she simply slipped on the shiny wood floor....(probably wearing new shoes).

That doesn't change the fact that Americans anticipate to have a different president and party elected in 2012.

I don't get the sense that the Germans thought too much of Merkel's visit either. Bild, always with its finger on the pulse of Germany, properly focused on the biggest issue: what did Thomas Gottschalk think of it all?

Oh, I didn't realize that he was invited too - as well as Juergen Klinsman (soccer). Bild knows everything

Just heard Mark McEwan (celeb chef) on the CBC radio saying almost the same thing about the G20. He said "that's what aircraft carriers are for, isn't it".

Let's be honest. The German immigrants that came to the U.S.A. was a blessing, in that not every ethnic group contributes with the same set of aptitudes.
