European Emperor Herman Van Rompuy? I don’t know whether to laugh or cry. Couldn’t they pick someone a bit more charismatic than than Von Rumproy? If looks are any indication, the guy is a nasty little weasel.
That’s what the whole “Super-president” idea is all about. It certainly isn’t going to be van Rompuy. (Remember all the rumors to the effect of Tony Blair as President of the European Council? They’re great at deflective propaganda.) They most likely have someone else in mind . . .
