Germany's Constitutional Court hits hard reset on EU Lisbon Treaty
2009-07-08
Last week's ruling by the German Constitutional Court,
that ratification of the Lisbon Treaty by the German parliament is unconstitutional,
coupled with demands by one conservative party for changes to the constitution,
to prevent such goings-on in the future,
may not only jeopardize Berlin's schedule for the ratification of the Lisbon Treaty. The Karlsruhe ruling also threatens future steps toward European integration.
Those who want a United States of Europe, American style, to counterweight America, must be livid. Details and background at link.

#2  If the Euros had a speck of intelligence left, they'd be more concerned about American disengagement and a 'balance' to the people to the East who want to return to the 'good old days' of their make believe glory in the absence of hard diplomacy in their inventory.

#1  They don't need a counterweight to American power, Obama is already filling that role admirably.
