Misunderestimated Germans: A New Blog with Potential

Check out this great new blog: Misunderestimated Germans.

This is an excerpt of one of their recent posts:

"Saddam "Tookie" Hussein

Breaking News: Saddam Hussein is to write a children’s book to escape his execution!

This book will be distributed to Iraqi schools, some of Saddam’s attorneys told the Middle East correspondents of Misunderestimated Germans. They also disclosed a sample of themes:

• Jihad isn’t cool!
• What would Jesus do?
• How I ever secretly loved the Kurds
• Israel rulez!
• God bless America!
• Grandpa Saddam’s allotment garden
• My best friend George
• How to have a shave without getting decapitated

What do you think? Has Saddam changed his life and mind?"

This is a brand new blog just looking for an audience. We've just added them to our blogroll, so check them out and add them on your bookmark file of good German blogs.

Ya know, I just shook my head when I saw the front page of the Sueddeutsche Zeiting on Wednesday with the headline, "Stanley Williams hingerichtet [executed]".

You mean to tell me that a newspaper out of Munich is soooooo concerned about an execution in California so as to make front-page headlines? C'mon!

@Motorhead: I guess you don't know SDZ. It's just a leftie propaganda sheet masquerading as a normal newspaper. Oh wait... normal newspapers in Germany ARE leftie propaganda sheets. Even the Rheinpfalz has been unbearable recently (CIA, el Masri, Tookie, US wiretaps.... WHAT other news?).
