Germany's Feeling A Bit Caliente These Days

The Jews must be thrilled that the Germans seem to be moving their attention away from the chosen people. I'll tell you who's not thrilled. Mexico.

This isn't sports-related but it's a great story. A diplomatic rift is growing between Germania and Mexico over a song. One would think Deutscheland Uber Alles would be enough to make people nervous but ze Germans have gone one step further and started attacking other countries individually through song. Finger Im Po, Mexico (translated as Finger In The Butt, Mexico) has become a hit in Germany and La Raza are not happy.



Mexican Ambassador to Germany Jorge Castro-Valle Kuehne has written a letter of protest to the song's publisher EMI.
"As I'm sure you can understand, the lyric has aroused great outrage among the members of the Mexican community living in Germany, who have a right to be angry that Mexico's name is being used in this kind of disrespectful and disgusting way."

The song was written and is performed by 34-year-old German entertainer Mickie Krause, who made his breakthrough performing works such as "Go Home, You Old Shit" and "10 Naked Hairdressers."

Krause told [German newspaper] Bild that the song had to be taken with a sense of humor. "On stage, I also sing the lyric 'Finger in the vagina, Bosnia-Herzegovina,'" he added. "And nobody has gotten worked up about that."
Just wait until Finger in the Anus, Cyprus or Finger in the Pussy, Central African Republic. Major wars have started over lesser issues.

Thanks to Glendon over at Football Roundtable for the tip.
