Reading the discussion on this forum, over the last number of days, i've noted that you, along with a few others, have been doing a sterling job of attempting to ridicule anyone who happens to express an opinion different to your own.
I'm not surprised you need a break.
I was tetchy earlier for sure. I like to be as straight a talker as possible without getting banned
and if someone is talking out of their arse then they're talking out of their arse.
However that doesn't change the fact there is no such thing as the EU President. No matter how many times people say Tony Blair will get the job, he won't as the role doesn't exist.
Now if we're talking about the President of the European Council then there is a possibility that he could get the job. I personally wouldn't be in favour of that and I think many EU states won't be. The British newspapers, i.e. they are in English so we can read them, are full of the story. All that means is the British are hyping up 'their' man (or slagging him off depending), one country of 27. So in conclusion we are a country mile off him actually getting the job and talking about it round and round like he actually has the job is really fúcking pointless.0 -

Do we all get to hang portraits of Tony in our offices and workplaces, perhaps a small one beside the family photos on the mantle? Can we send him 'Thank You' cards when we recieve the death notices of our young ones who have died in a new war, started with Iran, purportedly over Nuclear Issues ( Isreal has tons of 'illiegal' nuclear weapons and nobody says boo, America has over 2,500 nuclear missiles... am i expected to live on a street where everybody owns a machine gun and be told I'm not allowed to own a pistol?) but really over their natural gas? Hail tony! Hail Tony! 0 -

So you don't think that the whole Iraq saga is a problem no?
The way it came about, the way the people were manipulated, the killings, no problem? You don't think that these people (Blair/Bush) are actually criminals of the highest order?
Of course I do...I was just putting out the bait
You should read the rest of my posts about Blair. I don't support the guy at all but which do you prefer:
A) In 2005 (in the midst of the Iraq controversy) Blair became the President of the Council because it was his turn and NOBODY could do anything about it,
Lisbon calls for the position to be elected by the 27 member states Heads of Government and I personally think Blair is too controversial to get enough support among the 27 Heads of Government.

a group of People I know of, in the UK have a lot to say about Blayer their Website is called F.A.S.S.I.T. , UKDespite all those that are repeatedly saying that the "No" side is/was blowing smoke about Blair going to be president, TOMORROW on the front page MAIN HEADLINE of the British Times, they are announcing that it is MOST likely that Blair WILL be the first EU president.
Tomoprrows front page:
The news sites tonight have been showing copies of tomorrows papers and this story is being repeated to some variation in a lot of them.
Now I have read the previous links supplied from both sides stating their case one way or another with examples of previous statements, papers comments etc - however its become quite clear now, all those are now just that - past history. What will appear on tomorrows front page of the British Times is likely to be the future!
Todays paper!
