Corruption suspicions against Möllemann continue to mount - wow, Möllemann really wants to outdo Kohl and catch up to Strauss. Ok, Hunzinger as a source is about as reliable as Möllemann was as economics minister, but still, this is slowly shaping up to be a real political disaster for Möllemann and maybe the prosecution authorities will finally get one of the players after all.

Clement and Merz at Odds over Hartz Concept. "In the debate over labor market reform, an initial discussion between Economics Minister Clement and Union economic expert Merz brought no compromise. While Clement offered a special session of the Bundestag for further consultation, Merz called an agreement unlikely." Clear. First they make loud noises saying they want to work constructively, but when it comes to constructive work they just build walls. What else would you expect from the opposition - so far they've never shown any form of constructive work competence. Actually, they haven't shown competence anywhere except in getting 30 million to Liechtenstein ... (why wasn't Kanther held accountable for that anyway? So much for coming to terms with the past ...)
