Chutzpah

The European Union wants to have its cake and eat it too. They chose not to participate in the war on Iraq, and there is nothing wrong with that. However, now the Americans are going to be spending their own money for the reconstruction of Iraq.

So what do the greedy Europeans want? No, I should drop the word "want", they demand a share of the reconstruction contracts. I thought it was a joke when I first read it, but its actually true. They opposed the war, they didn't pay for any of the costs, they kept their soldier's at home, and now they think they have the right to American money?

I don't know how they can look at themselves in the mirror when they get out of bed. Its like refusing to help your neighbor while she is getting robbed, and then getting insulted when she doesn't come to your company to get some new locks installed.
