The agreement also calls for EU nations to surrender sovereignty in many areas to centralized decision-making; and it reduces national veto rights to allow more decisions to be made by majority voting instead of by unanimous consent.
No European nation will sign this. Except maybe Belgium.

Infact, it's already been approved by the majority of the EU member-states. Only the Irish are having a referendu, and dare I say, I'll be tempted to go there and instruct them on the future of the European union with a Large Attitude Readjustment Tool if they screw this up again like they did with the last treaty.
Europe needs to stand united against if we are to remain relevant on a global stage.
Hmm, I stand corrected then. I am very surprised anyone would agree to that though. Surrender sovereignty? We'll be back in the situation where we're not allowed to eat bananas which are too curvy, and this time we won't be able to say "up yours".

That article is one of the most americanised, biased pieces of drivel I've ever had the amusement to read on the internet.
Is there a proper article about it anywhere? I'd be interested to read it.

I'd want the US to rejoin UK if I had my choice, we need to be back with our brothers.
The sun never sets on the British Empire!
Because God wouldn't trust an Englishman in the dark.

Europe already tried that, they blew it 
/me shakes head - Europe had several superpowers over the last half millennium, the US kind of slipped in through the back door after WW2 and the colonies were granted independence under the UN convention.
It's just the European homelands uniting under the same banner, a European Federation if you will. Point is, more people more money and more resources in Europe than the USA, the only meaningful way to know the outcome for sure will be in a few decades when the Euro has had a thorough shakedown and the pan European Military amalgamation starts.
Honestly m8..I sincerely doubt this will happen. I've seen first hand the utter distain certain European countries have for one another. The way Europeans talk about other Europeans is quite disturbing. Ireland is in the EU and they haven't got a pot to Pi$$ in, which is probably why they do it on the streets. Thats a banner to be proud of :):)
Are you an idiot?
