The Cowardice of the SPD

She shows herself in the position on (not quite?) General Secretary Nahles:

Nahles had previously been sharply attacked within the party. The spokesman of the conservative Seeheimer Kreis, Johannes Kahrs, said in the ARD morning magazine: "I think it is absurd that someone is rewarded as a regicide who, with his stubbornness, has led the party into crisis."

I think it is absurd that a right-wing pile of trash like the Seeheimer Kreis gets a voice in the SPD at all. He should just go over to the Union ...

The "regicides" were, by the way, not Mrs. Nahles, but the party executive - of whom 8 also did not attend the meeting. But criticizing them, the little coward naturally does not dare, because they could cut him back in his perks and trim him down to what he is: nothing.

But unfortunately, the SPD executive probably does not have the guts and will chicken out in front of the conservative forces and thus help to make the SPD just as boring, uninteresting, predictable and insignificant with new personnel as it already is. Just a red-painted Union. Who needs that? When we have Stoiber and Seehofer?

Rumsfeld denies UN access to detainees

In the Land of the Free and the Brave:

The United Nations has accused the United States of imposing unacceptable conditions on a planned inspection of the Guantanamo Bay detention camp. Even China does not set such conditions for visits to its prisons, said the UN Special Rapporteur on Torture, Manfred Nowak, in New York.

With the current administration, perhaps rather a land of cowards and liars?
