Wieder in Island

Vertrauen ist manchmal nicht gut genug
Kaltschnäuzig serviert “unsere” Kanzlerin in diesem kurzen Ausschnitt einen niederländischen Journalisten ab, der sich erkundigt wie sie einem Menschen das Finanzressort anvertrauen kann, der mal eben 100000 DM vergißt (zur Erinnerung: auch Schäuble ist eine Altlast aus Zeiten der CDU-Parteispendenaffäre). … Continue reading
