US Welcomes Van Rompuy's EU Presidency
Interesting in the sense that they are both nobodies, complete unknowns. The EU bureaucrats will not be any competition to the EU heads of state. No one will be calling these two morons, everyone--as in Obamoron and the Chinese will still be calling Sarcozy and Merkel when dealing with Europe. Had they picked Tony Blair, this would have been a copmpletely different narrative. Tony could have held his own with Sarkozy and Merkel.

US Welcomes Van Rompuy's EU Presidency
Herman Van Rompuy, also known as Haiku Herman, is a very interesting man.
I have been told, that his first response to the appointment of the Baroness was the following poem:
Do not worry friends.
She is under my control.
I can hit the bitch!
The photo from the article seems to support this.
Interesting indeed.

Bulgarian Actor Samuel Finzi Is New Double Star on German TV
Nepotism is the showing of favoritism for relatives or friends based upon that relationship, rather than on an objective evaluation of ability or suitability.

" BTW, didn’t you follow in your father’s steps when you came to America? lol"
I didn't have much choice, I was a child.
What constitutes nepotism if not following in your father's footsteps? I suppose it is not nepotism that Qadafi's son is going to rule Libya in the near future? What exactly do you consider nepotism?

“I guess it's OK that Todor Zivkov's grand-daughter is in parliament and Stanishev's parents were in the communist government. The kids are only following in their father's foot steps, there is no nepotism in Bulgaria. Lol”
Q.You implying that a son of a criminal following his father in prison for his own crimes, is...?
A. Nepotism! Tsk, tsk, tsk.. Nellie.
BTW, didn’t you follow in your father’s steps when you came to America? lol

Thanks for the clarification. Finzi sounds to me like an Italian name.
As for the nepotism--then it is not nepotism when all the present Bulgarian politicians and parliamentarians are "following in their father's footsteps" and getting into politics. I guess it's OK that Todor Zivkov's grand-daughter is in parliament and Stanishev's parents were in the communist government. The kids are only following in their father's foot steps, there is no nepotism in Bulgaria. lol

Nellie,
What are you getting so exited about? You should be able to recognize a Jewish name. He is a Bulgarian.
BTW, following in your father's footsteps--choosing the same profession--does not constitute nepotism . Nepotism is getting a job in your fathers workplace regardless of qualifications.
Gee...

OK, I get it. More nepotism. His father was Itzhak Finzi, also an actor.

Samuel Finzi is NOT a Bulgarian name. He may have been born in Plovdiv, but he is not ethnic Bulgarian.
