“Completely unacceptable”

No, not what this guy has said (or at least not everything), I mean the fact that he’s not allowed to say it – and will now get fired.

The German PC Police have struck; in this case led by Bundesbank president Axel Weber who wants really, really bad to be the next Jean Claude Trichet (EZB boss) and every other German politician who wants to get in a few easy brownie points.

The irony? Most Germans most likely agree with Sarrazin’s criticism of the country’s Muslim population. Unlike him, they would just never admit it out loud.

Nobody has to agree with any of his comments, but I do feel that this guy really does need to be accused of one serious crime, his heavy-handed and highly unsophisticated attempt to make some buzz about (and money with) his new book.

Angela Merkel, waded into the row this week. She called his remarks “completely unacceptable”.
