Speaking of hard times even places like Goodwill have raised their prices plus donations are down, probably people are selling their stuff at their lawn sales to pay the rent, or mortgage.

Hachfeld is great, Neues Deutschland is the Left Party’s official newspaper, and for the guy reliving World War II, it’s MENGELE, not Mengela.

Are we now a kinder and gentler Mengela?

Under New Management—New and improved.  We don’t believe in torture; we just do it!

Well said - thank you
Now where did we get to vote with our tax money on the financing and appropriation of this “makeover” ?
The costs of accountability, transparency and deceit we are led to believe in continue beyond staggering proportion to the real needs.

If anybody thinks times are bad in the U.S. they should thank God that they are not in the same country as the writer of this blog.

“Hard times are here and it is getting worse.  Donations cannot buy enough food to feed a starving family. Savages from a near by jungle village claim that the buttocks and thighs from a medium size human can provide enough food to last a month. The obese are hiding in terror because their meat is the choicest.  Only people with farming experience can avoid eating their family and friends. Let us pray that good times return along with traditional food.”

Let’s wish them luck!!
