Europe

The French voted against the least possible European draft of a Constitution :-(. It's hard to believe that a country with such an internationalist, universal intellectual tradition could be so small minded.
In french there is a good word for such behaviour: minable.

After that, the silliest party on earth, the italian Lega, is now proposing a anti Euro referendum. Is so hard to accept that things are really getting worse; in fact its almost against human nature.
