I remember once seeing Barroso on TV, while one member of the European so-called Parliament was, in his presence, reading a report indicating conflicts of interest and imbroilment in various affairs of corruption of Barroso. It was well documented. You know what was Barroso's reaction to such scathing accusations? He just started to laugh. That says enough.

They're in a world of their own. Big fat heads mouthing clichés, lining their pockets and pretending there's some moral raison d'
être involved. They'll try to circumvent this vote. What else have they to do?
