Something is better than nothing. Hyperlink.

Deutschland Uber Alles. While I want to be rid of Gerhard Schroeder and his "red-green" coalition government as soon as possible, an attention to history has made me very wary of German governments violating the letter of their own constitutions. I'm not trying to draw any inappropriate parallels, but before they began engaging in outright illegal behavior, the lawfully-elected Nazis started by stretching and bending the Weimar Constitution. I'd prefer Herr Schroeder stuck to the letter of German law, even if that means Frau Merkel won't be chancellor until next year.
