Bye Bye EU
Now Playing: Missa Papae Marcelli: Benedictus



Good to watch the European Union fall apart. Here It's a case of everyone wanting their bit of the pie and so they argue about it as the ship they are on sinks. Typical European behavior. Typical politician behavior - taking the rule which says that all members need to ratify the treaty in order for their bureaucratically created constitution to go into effect and trying to change the rules after two countries have voted it down. Now they've given it more time and presumably will try to shove it down the throats of the French and Dutch voters at a later date. But it's all brave talk now, the thing is dead and the politicians who tried to make the European Union into a thing to challenge the United States are also done as politicians. We get to see the bitter old men who wanted to recreate a godless Holy Roman Empire as they blame each other and pretend their New Empire isn't dead. Denial is a beautiful and bickering thing.
