    Haha, loving this. Ever since Forbes made i a habit to name Merkel the most powerfull women, everybody keeps complaining about everything that happens in Germany. I guess they still aren't over the whole supreme leader thing. (Probably never will be either, but you can't blame them.)

    Having a good amount of Germanic blood in me, I fail to see what is so humorous. Especially, since all Fuhrer means in German is basically a leader.

    ehm , ok, what was so funny about that?

    furor - a sudden outburst (as of protest)
    i could have understood the funniness if they had mispelled it or something.

    Merkel at home with furore =/= fuhrer. German commander being stupid with making decisions... Ah, nvm. It's just funny.

    I was making fun of the fact that they used the word furor so close to the name of the top politician in Germany...

    Furor sounds a bit like Fuhrer... Too deep apparently lol
