Final Word from Tuesday, December 9, 2008



Václav Klaus was outraged at how he was treated on Fri. by a group of visiting MEPs, because no one had talked to him like that during his six years in office. The same could now be said of the domestic press. By raising the issue of "impeachment," the mainstream media are boldly going where no man has gone before. The Constitution allows two reasons for removing the president. Petr Uhl of Právo favors the option of declaring him incapacitated, for reasons of insanity, if he refuses to sign the Lisbon treaty. The other cardinal sin is treason. Respekt hinted at this while exploring Klaus's ties to Russia. Historian Petr Placák said that Klaus clearly is not defending Czech national interests, so the question of whether the Russian secret services have something on him must be raised. Actual impeachment seems quite unlikely, but the mere mention of it is eroding the authority of the president.[Czech Republic member of the European Parliament Soviet Union]
