If they do away with the national level veto ... when do we start remaking the maps with the United States of Europe on it ?

We should just invite a few nations like Poland to enjoy American statehood.

After surrender, the French are most known for their tendency to overreach. Not getting their way is a bigger insult to them than American Cheese.

This is the beginning of the end, now that their true cards have been dealt. Couldnt happen to a nicer set of surrender monkeys. France has wanted a USofE for a long time now. They wont get it. They could have learned something from Liberal Democrats. You can turn any state into a socialist nation if you just wait 50 years.

Gary Titley, MEP, the Labour leader in Brussels, said: "Prodi never learns. By trying to open up the question of the veto he's opening up a Pandora's box. There is a risk that everything will fall apart."

Please, please let it fall apart!!!

the "euro" is the big stick to force the smaller nations in line. The have to have the agriculture subsidies for their own internal political stability. No subsidies and the agriculture majority will vote them out of office or worse.

Scary times... the Socialist/Marxists are about to take complete control of Europa... scary times indeed...

Instead, a quorum of five sixths of the EU states should be able to revise the constitution

Come come now. That's no way for a "democracy" to function. I say make "constitutional" changes a matter of a simple majority rule. It's only fair!

That should keep those idiots preoccupied for the next 200 years or so...
