Maybe you have to lose something to value it more when you get it back. Maybe thats why the Germans seem to have a better grasp of the concept of freedom of speech and democracy than Americans do.
Our Fearless Leader is in Europe right now, trying to make nice with all the people over there he has pissed off. One stop on his itinerary was to be a 'town hall meeting' with a bunch of German citizens. That's not gonna happen now though. The Germans wouldn't go for that whole thing that we do here in America where we ask our leaders only questions that they allow us to ask. The Germans, get this, wanted to ask any old questions. They wanted to ask hard questions and probably some mean questions.
