The Expatica link above contains: “The controversy over Stoiber follows a scandal caused by another Christian Democrat, Joerg Schoenbohm, a western German who is interior minister of eastern Brandenburg state.”

“Following the discovery last month of the bodies of nine babies, all apparently killed by their mother in eastern Germany, Schoenbohm blamed what he termed the “forced proletarianisation” of the region for the crime.”

Well, that didn’t make sense. What woman has nine babies? But after googling, I see we’re talking about here are home delivery\abortions. A 39 year old mom operating over 16 years. Of course, neighbors described her as a friendly person. The remains found in fish tanks, flower pots and so on by forty policemen with dogs.

Here is a more precise version of Schoenbohm’s statement:

“We have to ask ourselves how this incredible crime remained hidden over all these years. It’s a question directed at relatives, neighbours, doctors and the authorities,” he said.

“I believe,” he said, “that communist party-enforced proletarisation is one of the significant causes of moral dereliction (Verwahrlosung) and violent tendencies.”

“In a totalitarian system,” he added later, “the spreading of shared values (Wertevermittlung) was a low priority. It was best not to be too involved in other people’s lives.”

As an American male I’m tired of abortion as self-actualization. Abortion rights a form of political empowerment. It’s become a new Protestant cult. In America, if they weren’t born, they were never alive. Certainly not “babies” … a commodity.

Seems to me the woman was practicing Emersonian self-reliance. In fact, I have far less problem with abortion as long as the mother strangles the fetus with her own hands.

Some things are best not left to professionals.

As for this Ossi-bashing. Blond haired men with Teutonic accents as racist villains have been a Hollywood cliche for decades. Lately, they being replaced by emigre Russian gangsters. What kind of bashing is that?

America’s left saw Clinton’s Serbian excursion as poli-correct. A good war. Not like Somalia, because in Serbia and Kosovo, America only killed Evil. White Christians.

These German politics seem to have more subtlety than America’s divide: “Dubya the hate-filled moronic-bumkin vs the Saint Hilary: Saviour\Genius.”
