Schroeder Disses Bush

Ouch.

"I can think of a recent disaster that shows what happens when a country neglects its duties of state towards its people. My post as chancellor, which I still hold, does not allow me to name that country, but you all know that I am talking about America."

-- Outgoing German Chancellor Gerhard Schroeder, quoted by the Washington Times, ripping President Bush.

Hopefully their next Chancellor, Angela Merkel, will carry that torch.
