Of course European countries have to vote for the EU constitution, which hasn’t been successful at all to date.

German ministers claimed that the plan was about "underlying the goal of a united Europe" to "permanently overcome old borders" at a time when the "Constitution for Europe needs to regain momentum".

This is the last straw. Europe has officially lost its mind. God save the Queen!

That'll teach those Brits to reject overwhelming anti-Americanism!  It seems that Great Britain has had a successful hemorrhoidectomy.  HUZZAH!

Egalitarianism is simply absurd

Who drew this  map? The Kaiser? The Nazis?

I don't think the constitution will ever be successful. One of the primary goals of European integration was to stop future European wars. Western conflicts have become far too destructive and I applaud the idea. Frankly, I think it's already been achieved. What really is the likelihood of a future European conflict? With the possible exception of renewed aggression from the Russian Bear I would say exceedingly low.

The Kleptocrats in Brussels drew the map.  You know, the unelected ministers of the EU. 

 
I don’t think that the EU constitution will be ratified.  But if it were, and this map were adopted the individual countries of the EU would lose their identity and it would make it virtually impossible to exit the EU at a later time.
