From the desk of Jane Galt:Snarky journalistic tid-bit of the day
From The Economist:
BRITISH representatives in Brussels spent the evening before the European-Union summit (held on Thursday June 15th and on Friday) rigging up a television room so Tony Blair, Britain's prime minister, could watch England take on Trinidad and Tobago in the World Cup. That interested him more than talk about the constitution, which the rest of the summiteers were scheduled to discuss at the same time. Mr Blair was well advised. European heads of government were gathering on Thursday for a summit that was likely to prove boring and pointless, even by the EU's own demandingly high standards of tedium.Posted by Jane Galt at June 15, 2006 02:24 PM | TrackBack | Technorati inbound links

Shame shame! Praising a publication without acknowledging a conflict of interest?? ;)

Posted by: Bill Dalasio on June 15, 2006 03:16 PMWho reads The Economist? They don't even use proper English! Frankly, I'm stonkered by the very notion.

Sounds like something out of Monty Python!
