There won't be much more news here until Chirac speaks. I'm looking forward to seeing that soon.

The only reason we're laughing at them is the reason they voted NO. LOL, it's because the constitution wasn't socialist enough!

The USA wins by the constitution's failure.

Actually, it makes for a more competitive Europe in the end. The EU is not Europe.

Only the enemies of Europe would wnant this to go through.

It is the Eurocrats that are our enemies.

The socialist comentator on Greek TV is saying the primary purpose of the No vote was to express their desdain to Turkey joining the EU.

I seems we can guess the talking points from now.

Also Chirac's TWO HOUR lecture seemed to have the OPPOSITE EFFECT.

It also makes it impossible for france to have a participation in a mini-constitution of the yes voting nations.


The comentator is saying france and germany is not able to be leaders in the EU because they are passing through serious ecconomic cricees.

France has no way to get out of their ecconomic hole.

chirac is now talking

He is saying I see you no vote.

I remind the citizens of france our future is tied to the EU.

France will continue to be at its seat at the EU.

The treaty of the EU will continue.

(from french to greek to FR, sorry folks)

The vote represents hopes and fears. In the comming days I will be expressing my conculsions about this vote.
