Only in the EU....

Quote:
France and the Netherlands should re-run their referendums to obtain the "right answer" if their voters reject Europe's constitutional treaty in imminent national ballots, Jean-Claude Juncker, the holder of the EU presidency, said on Wednesday.

The Luxembourg prime minister said all 25 EU member countries should continue their attempts to ratify the treaty whatever the outcome of the French and Dutch votes.

His comments reflect a mood of deepening pessimism among Europe's leaders about the outcome of the referendums.

That first bold statement... WOW is all I can or will say. Arrogant bastard ain't he? How many time would the EU leadership demand re-votes if this fails as is predicted? What woudl they do if it became obvious that the voters won't ever give the "right" answer?


Could you imagine a US politician making such a statement and the hell he would pay for doing so?


Einstein's "Theory of Relativity" is still being challenged to this day, but by consensus Global Warming is a fact... that's REAL science at work, why didn't Albert just go that route?
