Hilarious Blog.

Previously unknown to me, found a truly hilarious blog today. EUPundit. They seem to have drunk deeply at the well of EUrophilia. On the Constitution:

the only direction which a modern Europe can possibly take

The only direction? Why bother holding votes then, if the ramblings of an octogenarian diamond smuggler are the only way? There is truly no alternative path, not even one that leads to a democratic Europe? Or one where the accounts get audited? Or one where selling a banana of excessive curvature is not a criminal offense?


An interesting posting at the community EU blog Viewropa entitled Quand Google défie l’Europe (When Google defies Europe)
discusses an issue of interest raised by Google’s indexing of 15
million books (4.5 billion pages) from the libraries of Harvard,
Stanford, the University of Michigan, the New York Public Library and
Oxford. Jean-Noël Jeanneney, head of the Bibliothèque Nationale de
France, worries that this will contribute to a crushing domination of
Anglo-Saxon literature on the web and he proposes that Europe counter
with its own digital libraries and search engines.

Why not send Google an email asking them to index the French Library?

As
one can see, prior to 1940 Europe had the highest concentration of
light-skinned persons as its native inhabitants, something which is
accounted for historically by the lesser relative intensity of solar
radiation in the European nations (perhaps the origin of the name Eu-rope is in a term similar to the Indo-European root A-lba "white"). Europe is the historical home of the white peoples.

It
would be interesting to see how this map looks today in terms not of
native populations but rather in terms of actual inhabitants. We think
that the map would be changed to some degree from what we see above.

In
any case, when asking the question "who are the peoples of Europe", the
above map should be taken into account as one aspect of the manner in
which the European Union is viewed by many of its inhabitants. It is
surely an integral part of what we might call "unwritten policy".

Yup, Europe’s only for us whities.

Sheesh, where do they get these people?

    No, actually, the origin is the Phoenician word for ‘west’, but that would spoil the PC diatribe.

  2. I see on their latest post, your card’s well and truly marked, “the poster Worstall.”
    That post is hilarious – they manage to say that England’s political tradition isn’t so great, because most of the claims to fame come from ‘Anglo-Saxon’ customs. You almost don’t have the heart to tell them where ‘Anglo-Saxons’ were…
