Well, you, at least, should be able to understand the stuff about US domestic politics as you (probably) live in the middle of it. In terms of learning a little more on EU and international politics you can wait a couple of hours and listnen to this one, will soon be archived on the CPSAN internet-server (note the different target-group compared to Levitte) ----- Call-In U.S.-Europe Summit C-SPAN, Washington Journal Washington, District of Columbia (United States) ID: 177090 - 2 - 06/24/2003 - 0:45 - No Sale Cox, Pat, President, European Union Parliament Mr. Cox will take calls and discuss Trans-Atlantic relations and concerns. The United States Government will host the annual summit with European Union officials beginning Wednesday. This segment will be broadcast live in Europe on the European Parliament's television network, Europe by Satellite. -------- Maybe also interesting for europeans who are, or are not, members of EU?? PS Note that I am using the word "politics" in its european meaning "the way all citizens handle common issues", not in the USA meaning, " the way those we did not vote for handle our businesses" (two-party system are tough, so few who vote and of them only appr 1/3th get representation, and even fever the one they would like)

I don't need lessons in written comprehension, and I certainly don't need mindless hostility. Whatever it is in your personal life that makes you so bitter and hostile and aggressive, don't bring it here. His posts are not the issue here. The issue is your petty attacks more in place in school yards among children. There are threads on SI where you can get away with that, have fun with the other kids in blasting insults at one another. This is not such a place. That is all I have said. You don't have to agree with all that you read on SI. God knows I don't. Just please don't spoil the atmosphere where others are trying to converse in a civil manner, if possible. Especially with petty attacks at others' nationalities and the like. All that does is harm people's perception of yourself.
