An ominous development.

Sounds like Frau Merkel is lying to save her coalition. Surely there is a man in Germany who can replace her and try to save the country.

The freaks won. Sadly, this is part of the end of the age.

Mama Merkel .

The interior minister's "master plan," which triggered the present German government crisis just over two weeks ago, would see asylum-seekers who had already been registered elsewhere being shut out of Germany — a potential breach of EU law and the Geneva Convention on refugees' rights

Sounds pretty reasonable so of course Merkel, and The EU are against it.

I don’t think it’s the likely end of Merkel’s coalition deal. There’s been various rumors of the FDP or Greens being pursued as the replacement ‘partner’.

I would agree, it’s probably the biggest drama in German politics in thirty years, and really goes back to Merkel’s lack of executive skills, or accomplishments for the past decade. Everything on her problem list....has to always be resolved or fixed via the EU, which just demonstrates to a regular working class German that Berlin has no authority or leadership anymore.

end stage socialism...

“The chancellor also said she had made concessions to Seehofer’s demands. “I would like very much for the CDU and CSU to continue working together,” she added. “Because we are a success story for Germany.”

HA!

“The leaderships of the CDU and CSU met separately in Berlin and Munich on Sunday to discuss whether and how the two parties, which have been allied since 1949, will continue to work together. The CSU is facing a state election in Bavaria in October, and has opted to take a hard-line anti-immigration stance as its main campaign strategy.”

Finally, an indication WTF they’re fighting about. Surprise.
