Sarkozy (France) and Barroso (Portugal) both called for reform of the international market system today at the European Council meeting in Brussels.

Barroso said the new economy should be based on the European "social" model where you have a market economy with rules and "social inclusion." Rather than talk directly about socialism, Barroso said, they talk about "reform" and a "social" economic model.

Now, all you need to do is get the dumb-assed Americans to get with the program! Hey, at least they are talking about "social inclusion," even if it does upset Joe the Plumber.

Haha, I never knew that Newsbot could ask questions like that.

At least the end of neoliberalism and American empire was mentioned, along with "social inclusion."

About as much as can be expected, I suppose.

Now you just need to get the stupid American neo-liberals to get with the program! Good luck with Bush (lol). They might be able to talk to Obama, but McCain, forget it!
