Bush is going to have a dynamite few years. His low point is behind him.
lemme see...
an organization that is unelected but controls everything, exempts the big pair (france/germany) from it's most onerous regulations, but puts the squeeze on other countries (Spain/Italy/etc.).
yeah. that's a recipie for long term stability.
my onlyt hope is that the USA stays out of this one. other than that, let the euroweenies stew in their own juices.
an to think this is eu controlled poll, could you imagine a 3rd party poll!

The EU attempts to micro-manage every little particle of life in the EU countries. Everything must be done their way. No wonder things are going from bad to worse...SSZ
Huh? Spain, Italy and many other countries GET subsidiaries from Brussels, on the expense of Germany (by far biggest netto-payer), Britain, Netherlands and a few others. Guess how the south-European countries improved their infrastructure??
When I was growing up, I was taught not to kick the bad guy when he was down.
However, after living in the social paradise of Europe my attitude is, "Could we make an exception in the case of the EU"?
there will always be an England...
The tide will REALLY turn when Saddam's atrocities are publicized during his trial. All the world will see and understand why Iraq had to be freed from the murderous grips of this madman.
In retrospect, the world will thank the US and its allies for stepping in when we did.
You are of course corrct on that.
Have you ever thought about what will happen when they can't pay as much anymore into the EU coffers, or can't support their own unemployed Muslim Auslaender? Maybe something to watch out for?

Reality must really, really suck for liberals.
Natural law must really, really suck for liberals.
Truth must really, really suck for liberals.
Human nature must really, really suck for liberals.
Grand socialist plans crashing in flames, again, must really, really suck for liberals.
I'm happy to see that Europeans are waking up.
The little episode happening in France is the death knell of the European Union.
> I am sure the polls will turn around when islamic Turkey joins the EU...
The present unpleasantness will thwart Turkey's hopes. The EU was supposed to herald The End of History. Seems like a new chapter has just begun.
Remember . . it's pronounced "Eeeewwww"
