Lowimpakt is right, JazX, you don't know European politics that well. Klaus is probably the only leading politician in Europe who openly advocates personal freedom, opposes EU centralization and warns against global warming hysteria. (UK's Tories don't count).

http://www.guardian.co.uk/busine…I liked the Mandelbrot interview TBO posted. Systems fail from time to time. Every complex system fails at some point. If you have a global system, you will have a global failure.
It applies to Europe as well. If a single country fails (like Iceland), the whole system still goes on. Some day the system called EU (that doesn't even legally exist until Lisbon Treaty is signed) will fail. This will be a disaster.Ireland voted Lisbin Treaty down just like French and Dutch did before it was even called that (it was EU constitution). It is dead, legally after the Irish referendum. However, everyone expects it to be reformulated and thrown on the Irish again. Rinse and repeat until they vote right.
Imagine Bush declaring people weren't informed well enough and saying they need to vote for president again.
This is exactly what's happening here now. A government with ridiculously low support will force Lisbon Treaty on people again.- I never said I did. I just thought it was hilarious that he called out Al Gore. Ha!********
