Ich liebe Dich, Herr Octopus! Suck it Argentina!
Simple solution: Ban Heterosexuals!
@RussianTaco: Right on. I had the same idea. But I also considered my "generation" in the iGeneration category and i'm 23.
[If "Köhler" is not possible, please write at least "Koehler", not "Kohler" - it works with Schroeder, too, after all. Okay, umlaut nazi hath spoken.]
It's huge insofar as it's the second conservative resignation in one week, further adding to bad publicity about Merkel's gubernatorial mayhem at the moment.
Also, Merkel and Westerwelle, the current secretary of state and party leader of her coalition partner, made him president before the 2005 parliamentary elections, so he was meant as a symbol for imminent Black-Yellow reign (the colours of the governing coalition parties). In this election, however, conservatives and liberals against all expectations clearly missed a majority -- the result was a Grand Coalition of conservatives and social democrats.
The 2009 elections, though, finally brought Black-Yellow into power. Since then, though, the coalition has almost exclusively garnered criticism. The fact that he resigns while the conservative-liberal coalition is in trouble is ironic and perfectly useable to mock the decline of the once so victorious coalition.
The federal president is quite a figurehead, even though he can influence legislation. He is the one signing bills into law, and if he has doubts about a bill being constitutional, he can refuse to sign it.

Watermelon hate...not cool dude, not cool.
@Rob: Actually Rob in at least 30 states (you can guess about where) it is legal for restaurants to refuse service to homosexuals. So that is already happening. Sometimes it feels this country is moving backwards instead of forwards. tsk tsk.
Ahem, If they hadn't kicked the gays outta town the musicals might have been better! Kish 4life!
Thank God in a classroom full of mostly white children I was the only Javier. There was another Javier in the school but he was in a different grade at least. That said I think I will name my child Quetzalcoatl.
@BowlingForDollars: Joy Behar is that you?
Again. I think this picture applies here too.
Problem solved. I hear Chuck Norris dresses up like Danny Trejo for Halloween.
@MaxVol: Why should he be rewarded?
@sanyucat: Will she make the moose have to pay for it's own rape kit?
1.) SO what's the twist? That you're the REAL Avatar?! Aang unzips his little white boy costume to reveal it was you all along!
@BookishLookish: Ahem! Salma a bad actress! Have you seen Fools Rush In with Chandler! Okay maybe by some standards she is a questionable actress but a fierce Latina nonetheless!
And No, Mexico would not want her either. Something tells me her base has very few Mexicans (or people of color).
Rrrrrrrr
@kityglitr: Your wrong. The end.
@seanlaughlin: Well technically they are white people. Hispanics without any indigenous or african heritage are considered "white". Basically white = not black.
Who cares, Canada/Jan was star for a day (...or however long the 'lympics wuz).
Jan = Canada
Marcia = USA
Marcia! Marcia! Marcia!
