BERLIN – Germany's foreign minister says he cannot remember so much hope and confidence being generated by an incoming U.S. president.

Frank-Walter Steinmeier has offered his country's support for the incoming U.S. administration in an open letter to Barack Obama.

He says Germany is prepared to help Obama with the multitude of challenges he faces, including the closure of Guantanamo Bay detention center, rebuilding in Iraq, addressing the global financial crisis and fighting climate change.

Steinmeier says that the two countries should "work together in order to fashion a common future."

The letter is to be published in this week's Der Spiegel magazine and was provided in advance to The Associated Press. The Foreign Ministry confirmed the comments


Krauts must think they've got another lame duck on their hands that they can mold into a good little puppet.

9. Germans, and I think by and large most Europeans,
   
recognize a higher consciousness in Obama. They see in him and his administration a last chance for the US to redeem itself internationally.

Let's make sure that we contribute our share in seizing the opportunity inherent in our national crisis.

A higher consciousness...  :rotf: Boy is this DUmmie in for a hard 4 years.

10. The goodwill you engender
   
just by not sending over a gladhanding idiot who molests their Chancellor. It's almost like magic. Why didn't we think of that sooner?

The "good will you engender" by being a fawning sycophant to a collection of has-been nations, is not what you really want.

12. Frank-Walter Steinmeier please call for the arrest of the war criminals
   
Please!

By all means... Call until your throat is hoarse. Won't do a lick of good until you can come up with some actual, yanno , crimes. Keep reaching for that rainbow though.

Just think, if Obama had been President in the late 40's, the Germans could've all learned to speak Russian..............the hard way. :whatever:
Never demand that which you are incapable of taking by force, DUmmie.

And shortly after the Horst Wessel Song was translated into Russian, the French would've discovered a whole new master to surrender to.

**** europe.
When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.

With Hussien as our President, and Vlad pulling the strings in Russia, they may well still get that chance.
Hell, they'd view the Russians as liberators from their capitalist oppressors..........at least until the lines started getting long at the bread lines. Then it would be "why won't those damned Americans DO something???"

You know why the boulevards in France are lines with trees?







Because Germans like to march in the shade.
