Voters a bit subnormal,
Saying Olaf, Was zum Teufel?, it’s hard to be real joyful
When vehicle barriers aren’t so uniformal
It’s beginning to look a lot like elections
Politics are all amoral,
But the prettiest sight to see is the scapegoat that might be
Nailed to your own front door
A bit of news today on that Christmas market attack and the inevitable search for the officials who dropped the ball by allowing a big, obvious, vulnerable gap in the market's anti-ram perimeter. Read it here:
German security and intelligence chiefs faced questioning Monday about the car-ramming attack that killed five people and wounded more than 200 at a Christmas market 10 days ago.They were to be quizzed about possible missed clues and security failures before the December 20 attack in the eastern city of Magdeburg, where police arrested a Saudi psychiatrist, Taleb al-Abdulmohsen, at the scene.-- snip --Chancellor Olaf Scholz, who faces a general election in February, has declared that Germany needs to "investigate whether this terrible act could have been prevented"."No stone must be left unturned," he told news portal T-online on Friday.
No stone? As in no Merklestein? Precisely, Herr Chancellor!
A gap left in an otherwise continuous perimeter of anti-ram barriers was exactly what allowed that ramming attack to happen at the Magdelburg Christmas market.
Someone was careless, and I suspect you have already expended some typical German efficiency in lining up a few likely suspects, probably low-ranking and expendable ones.
All’s that left is to hang him or them out to dry before those general elections.

Are you lollygagging around on vacation time?
Oh, yes indeed. There are so many federal holidays right now that I can hardly keep track of them: Christmas of course, but also Christmas Eve (a gift from POTUS), New Years Day, then January 9 (Jimmy Carter's funeral), and January 20th (MLK Day). That last one is actually a two-fer since 1/20 is also the second Trump Inaugural and therefore a day the feds are normally shut down in the Washington area. So much free time on my hands!
Lolololololo!
Have fun, go to New Orleans. Talk about looking stupid....
You anticipate my post today about New Orleans. The stupidity there is matched by the lazy attitude.
