I applaud you, Europe. But not in an enthusiastic manner. When the prime qualities you are looking for in a president are: 'is remarkably unknown', 'hasn't done anything wrong yet', 'can keep a low profile' and 'unifies a whole lot of political systems to the point of being rendered trivial', you can't exactly expect anyone to be truly happy about the event.

The American equivalent would be to line up the five most recent ex-presidents, and crown the one who has been the most unremarkable over his entire reign 'uber president', without actually giving the guy any responsibilities except for symbolic ones.

Europe; united we stand, but only in front of the cameras.

Very true!

Although personally, I support the idea that they start calling this guy the 'Honourable Supreme Overlord of the United European Nations' as to offset the lack of any actual political impact. Got to compensate for something you don't actually have, eh?

I actually do...

Bush is funny as hell. If Whose Line was still running, I wouldn't be surprised to see him as guest star.

From a European perspective, you don't know half how funny this picture is.

Anyway, back on topic.

I don't get it.

He does resemble Berlusconi, a bit.
