David Cameron's Finest Hour

Prime Minister David Cameron's decision to veto Germany's demand for a new European fiscal union will define his premiership.

More than that, Cameron has raised a banner for patriots everywhere fighting to retain their national independence.

With his no vote on fiscal union, Cameron declared to the EU: "British surrenders of sovereignty come to an end here. And Britain will deny Brussels any oversight authority of any national budgets or any right to sanction EU members."

The euro-skeptic right is understandably ecstatic.

"He Put Britain First," thundered the Daily Mail. "There is now a wonderful opportunity for Britain gradually to loosen itself from the shackles of a statist, over-regulated, anti-democratic, corrupt EU."

The Sun featured Cameron as Winston Churchill, flashing a wartime V-for-Victory sign over the banner headline: "Up Eurs – Bulldog PM Sticks up for Britain."

The British left, however, almost took to bed.

"Cameron Cuts U.K. Adrift," wailed the Guardian. "The EU Leaves Britain," moaned The Independent.

The best thing to happen, and the necessary one, is to return to the German Mark, British pound, and so on down the line. The move to the socialist common money, the euro, allowed lazier countries to suck the teat of stronger countries, who, in turn, quit working to support the lazier. and then the crash cane down.

return Sovereignty to nations, let them value their own money, and let that be a lesson to the USA to get out of this stupid ass "Global Economy" idea that is being bounced around.

Hey, Bozos, just look at what is happening now. Wanna join in the DISASTER??? Uh, no.
