	CNN - Germany Votes - Gerhard Schroeder: Upstart at the chancellor's gate
		Schroeder was born in the Lower Saxony town of Mossenberg in 1944, the year his laborer father was killed while serving with the German army in Romania.
		Schroeder himself held a number of part-time jobs while working toward a law degree, and once promised his mother that some day he would drive up to her door in a Mercedes.
		Schroeder claims to be a pro-business politician with fresh new ideas, but The Economist notes that "his rhetoric has been better than his record." Lower Saxony's unemployment is higher than the German average, and it has some of the highest debt as well.

		Even more important is that the hyper-sensitivity from Herr Schroeder is ironic given the outrageous bile he and some of his colleagues have thrown in the not-too-distant past, i.e., during last fall’s election campaign in Germany.
		But there was no public rebuke of her comments from Gerhard Schroeder, nor did he exactly jump to fire her -- to use his own new standard.
		In Schroeder's world, it is fine to slur a fellow democratic world leader by saying his methods are Hitleresque, but comparing a low-ranking parliamentarian to Colonel Klink should be a capital crime.
