"Let's be honest here: there's a whole crowd in Europe that can't get over its
disappointment that the wrong side won the Cold War, and that even lesser-path
communism (that is, Euro-socialism) has been shown up as a failure. That's what
this is all about, really. And it's contemptible -- and morally
indistinguishable from a bunch of fat Germans sitting around nostalgically
singing the "Horst Wessel."
Certain European political and intellectual leaders think that, because it's
militarily impotent, Europe should be a "moral superpower." But unfortunately
they've committed unilateral moral disarmament, too."
--Glenn Reynolds
Hey, and for another example of deep Euro thought, check the new doggerel
from Harold Pinter!
