But then the whole edifice was rotten from the start as most people knew but wouldn't say. <br /><br />The Euro-elite seem to think that the Italian people will - after such a magnificent gesture of independence - will calmly acquiesce while those whom they voted for go back on their promises. Since there's likely to be another election this year the next time would be for breaking out altogether and shutting the whole corrupt EU down. <br /><br />Yes, Freedom lover, you've got it right. christina speightnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36227136.post-88670014745920589332013-02-27T11:48:14.473+00:002013-02-27T11:48:14.473+00:00Although the very unclear Italian election result ...Although the very unclear Italian election result is NOT what the EU & its member states wanted, it is definitely what they NEEDED! Ie democracy. Despite all its faults, the result represents what the Italian people want, not what the Imperial EU elite want! <br /><br />When the EU realizes that, political health will return to the currently very ethically SICK European continent. As that is unlikely to occur before the EU collapses, the best solution for EVERYONE in Europe is for the EU to be DISSOLVED. When?

He is...That Westerwelle guy is a complete disaster. He is supposed to be in charge of German foreign policy but more things he says are against the interest of his own country than the other way around.<br />He simply seems to forget that these are democracies and have behind the government voters that have to be convinced. He missed the plot with the UK reneg ans now does it again. Especially now when it is so sensitive (Germany's role in Europe). He might understand the concept of one on one negotiations but clearly is found out if things play in a more complicated enviroment (like here: other countries; opposition there; possible elections there; top of the agenda and in the public spotlight issues; financial markets). Seems miles over his head. <br /><br />Merkel might not take him seriously and most likely cannot get rid of him, but she should try to manage the issue better. This could have been well prepared weeks ago (being the worst case realistic scenario). Now the moron is stil time and time again making ad hoc public statements while not having a clue. <br />And the general public doesnot know Merkel sees him as a disaster (as well), for the general public he simply represents the voice and face of German foreign policy. If a country gets the role of a worldpower (like Germany in the Euro crisis) it has to act like one as well (and keep guys like Westerwelle away from the microphone or tell them what to say).
