Cats know that the European emperors seek a way to legitimate their dictatorship in Europe. When they brought up the EU constitution for the first time, they thought, they could brainwash all the people so that the majority would vote for the dictatorship constitution. Humans in France and the Netherlands have shown them, that they maybe could lie to all the people for some time and that they maybe could lie to some people for all the time, but they couldn’t brainwash all the people to believe their lies all the time.
So when the emporors brought up the EU dictatory constitution for a second time, they knew why better not to ask the people. They named the constitution treaty of Lisbon and planned not to ask the people at all. Just the Irish politicians said, they will hold a referendum about the new constitution, but that would not be a problem at all. So now the last hope for Europe to get rid of the dictatorship constitution is that the Irish people to vote with No to the treaty of Lisbon.
Who thinks, a big one in politics like the Prime Minister of Portugal, leader of the portuguese Socialist Party and current President of the European Council, José Sócrates, would be just as indifferent as like other world leaders about the blogsphere, is definitely false. José Sócrates talked about the blogsphere even on portuguese TV (sorry, only in portuguese, no English transscript or subtitles so far):
Howdy, what’s going on there in Portugal? Just a few days before he took over the presidency of the European Council, José Sócrates has filed a defamation complaint against the portuguese blogger Professor António Balbino Caldeira, who is publicly asking questions about the Prime Ministers 1996 licentiate degree in civil engineering from “Universidade Independente” since the year 2005.
This smells pretty much like misusing a prosecution office for censorship. There is even a petition related to this topic. As José Sócrates is the current president of the European Council, the German Parteibuch blogger asked the Spokeswoman of the Portuguese Presidency of the Council of the EU, Clara Borja, for explanations:
Dear Ms Borja,
I read about a recent defamation complaint of Mr Jose Socrates against
Mr António Balbino Caldeira in relation to allegations of anomalies
about some kind of licentiate of Mr Jose Socrates. As a citizen and a
blogger I am concerned about the human right on freedom of speech.Therefore I have some questions to the Portuguese Presidency of the
Council of the EU:1. What is the exact subject of the defamation charges?
2. What is the background of the allegations of anomalies of the
licentiate of Mr Jose Socrates?
3. Are there planned any special activities by the portuguese presidency
of the council of the european union to enhance the situation of the
right on freedom of speech as declared in Article 10 of the European
Convention on Human Rights?I’m looking forward to your answers and will publish them on Mein
Parteibuch to share these answers with the public.Sincerely yours,
Marcel Bartels
Mein Parteibuch
There was no response from Ms Borja. So here is a response from a cat to Mr. Sócrates. Let’s congratulate Mr. Sócrates for his good job. Prosecuting a blogger for defamation is really a very good way to become very popular in the blogsphere. And of course it’s a very, very clever way to become every bloggers darling. So let’s thank Mr Sócrates for unifying bloggers all over Europe. Let’s appreciate his courage to do this without any fear to make himself uncomparably ridiculous.
