No Quick-Freeze: Chancellor urges Rösler to implement data retention. Isn't that funny? An EU commission wants something that has been rejected as unconstitutional in several member states, partly stopped by courts. There is a chancellor who has already been reprimanded by the Federal Constitutional Court because she pushed through an unconstitutional law. There is an EU commissioner who announces a new version due to constitutional problems. And what does the EU do? It threatens with penalties if the current, non-constitutional version is not implemented. And what does the chancellor, who is sworn to uphold the constitution, do? She wants to enforce a regulation against the objections of her own justice minister and against the decision of the Federal Constitutional Court over the Rösler boy (of course she takes him, after all, he has been on the chopping block since the NRW debacle and is dispensable). And amidst all this nonsense, the prolethicians in Berlin wonder why everyone is so upset about their surveillance fetish. A comedian who comes up with such an absurd story would be booed.
