Commentary, World Views and Occasional Rants from a small 'l' libertarian in Massachussetts

"If ye love wealth greater than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest for freedom, go home and leave us in peace. We seek not your council nor your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen." - Samuel Adams

Chirac is, as we speak, preparing his next round of insults for the smaller EU nations.

Eighteen countries including nine of the new members met early yesterday to forge a united front in their opposition to the single presidency plan favoured by the larger nations.

The smaller countries fear swapping the current system where each country holds the presidency for six months for a permanent elected president will hand over power to the bigger nations.


Obviously they still haven't learned to notice the right moments to 'keep quiet'.
