#1 We must be fair towards them and listen to what they have to say,' Plassnik said.

We've already said it, thanks, just like the vast majority of other EU citizens would have if they'd been allowed a vote. Please, EUrocrats, get it through your thick skulls that surrendering national sovereignty is NOT what we, and most other EU citizens, had in mind when we joined. If you force us to make a choice between our countries and the EU, the EU WILL always come in second.

#3 And it will all come to much ado about nothing. The EUROcrats will continue with their slow motion coup.

Ireland, England, France, et.al. will be reduced to the status of Rhode Island at best. (Actually picture Rhode Island after 8 years of 'bama)

They have little sovereignty left now and will lose the rest momentarily. See EU Referendum for the details, but, the 'crats figure they can implement 85% of the treaty with out any more votes at all.

#4 Basically:

"Explain to us why you let your uppity peasants vote against this. We expect to see floggings, imprisonment and some public executions of the ring leaders."

#7 Compare wid DER SPEIGEL > FRANCE SHIFTING STRATEGIC POLICIES; + WAFF.com > FRANCE'S SARKOZY ORDERS CUTBACKS IN FRENCH MILITARY PROCUREMENT.

TOPIX > SARKOZY MOVING FRANCE TOWARDS PRIVATIZATION SCHEMES.

IMO, think IRELAND = FRANCE, + Ireland giving mainland Europe an opportunity to fix itself to its own advantage/benefit. AS THINGS STAND RIGHT NOW, IN THE RACE FOR SETTING UP + ESTABLISHING FUTURE OWG FREE TRADE ZONES, THE EURO-ZONE [includ MEDITERRANEAN UNION] IS FALLING BEHIND THE LATIN-ZONE = SOUTH AMERICA.

Uncles Fidel-Raul would be proud > QUBA/CUBA + CARIBBEAN ZONE? may not be kicking Amer's butt right now, but its defin kicking Euro-butt!

VARI NET Posters > Gener, opine that iff BRITAIN ever surrenders to Radical Islamism, THE EU [as pan-EURO Organiz = "As Is" Curr Treaty] WON'T BE FAR BEHIND???
