Why do Poland block the European Constitution?

It get's to all countries...

We are the paymaster of the EU....WE ARE THE EU!

We surely would stall and fight tooth and nails if Germany wouldn't be at the same time the country which profits the most because of our export concentrated economy.

Or biggest trading partner is the EU! :)
(She is making us richer every year....)

Well, when somebody is too ugly to find real friends, he has to buy them and they still don't really like him :)

I think you have to understand that to many people in many countries, Germany is viewed as having a long consistent history of being agressive. It is in her nature. "Once burned, twice shy: is a normal reaction after you have been hit. Wouldn't you feel that way?

Look in the other thread...Germany has no problems with her image! It's quite excellent...world wide people like us, they respect and admire us...

Not only are we TOP economically but also have a very good image world wide!
We are a very well run country....
It's a nice feeling! :)

Now when you ask around what people think of your two clowns....*shakes head*

simply because our twins wanted little more publicity :)

Let's be honest, your government simply bought that ranking to not make feel sad.

Bye sausage...

BB, you are turning into Crow Jr. --- only posting on political threads. Come join us on other threads...can't you discuss anything else? :) Really!

The EU will work it self out without all this hand-wringing and worry :)

There is nothing wrong with being aggressive...at least today we develop and produce the world best tanks and export them instead of using them....(it's more fun that way)

:)

Och nö.....:(

But it creates an attitude of wariness in those that have felt the agression, honey!

Yikes...now that was mean!

:)

this discussion goes so long :D, i really think it was for pulicity stake that they acted threatening :), poland like to make its presense felt these days

Ok, then show me you aren't. Come to the OT thread and tell me something (anything that is not related to politics or nations! :)

We Yanks had military responsibility for one sector of Germany after the war, but that does not correlate to fiscal responsibility or immediate investment.

Look, here is a fascinating page on germany.info/relaunch/culture/history/marshall.html - the Marshall Plan from the German Embassy in the U.S. The Marshall Plan was not exactly what some people think it was, but on the other hand it did a hell of a lot more than apparently some other people are willing to give it credit for. (And got the proto-form of the EU going, God help us - ;^) )

But...but....but...I LIKE politics and history and such....OT I'm such a boring guy...really! :(

Still waiting....... :)

Brother Lech knows exactly what he is doing,, he will show western europe how things r done properly..

i watched him on tv tonight... hes lulling everyone into a false sense of security by pretending to be dim and confused... clever man... really had me going for a moment...

That's actually a good tactic in some situations....play dumb and folks let their guard down and supply you with information, unwittingly ;)

But such situation is humiliating both sides....furthermore, it's much better to be a buyer than to be an acceptor....
