from SLATE's news summary:
> The [Wall Street] Journal has the best details on Davos' cross-Atlantic
atmosphere of animosity. During a dinner speech, Patrick Cox,
president of the E.U. parliament, proudly announced, "The real
Europe has real values," adding "our imperial days are over, and
thank God for that." Ron Silver, "U.S. actor and political
activist," saw that as a diss of his homeland, prompting him to
jump from his table and proclaim, "We are not an imperial
government, Mr. Cox! You know that and everybody here knows
that." <
