Praise God that we in America have a Constitution that was founded on Judeo-Christian principles.

Its charter of fundamental rights embraces economic and social rights, such as limitations on working time, the right to consultation at work and the right to social security out of work. Indeed, one of the most bitter complaints of the right about the constitution is that it explicitly enshrines the right to strike

Europe's track record for decades is that the union in Europe has extended and expanded personal human rights and freedoms in a genuinely free and progressive manner unmatched in our - or your, or anyone else's - history.

Have you so quickly forgotten about the two world wars we had not too long ago? Was Hitler spreading human rights?

You can have your EU Constitution and all the, �privileges� it grants you. I�ll take my 200-year-old U.S. Constitution and the Declaration of Independence, which reads:
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights
Rights>privileges

Translation:

Which is why I don't understand how people can TRUST government of any kind,
obviously their interests are far more important then that of the people.
See there is no WE THE PEOPLE in the european constitution, it's WE THE UNION
can give you "right/privelages"... But then we can also easily take them away...
ps: why are you guys getting so defensive?? Are you defending this constitution because you love the government and are defending it?
Or is it something else?

I have not read one word of this European Constitution. I’ll take the time to read it if it’s available online.
