Weekend Open Thread > Poland signs ACTA - EU Rep Quits - US Embassy tactics

An employee of the U.S. embassy in Warsaw to the Polish Sejm phoned and questioned about party discipline during the vote on the desideratum to the Prime Minister ws. ACTA.
It's outrageous, not subject to the administration of President Obama - politicians embarrassed comment.

The day after the vote, a representative of Embassy of the United States called the Polish Sejm, asking how committee members voted ws. ACTA.

In the morning, around 11 lady phoned the American Embassy asking how this came to a vote. Podliczyła voices and lacks some deputies. Eight were in favor, three opposed and four abstentions, well, it gives us such a sum, which is not all - told Mieczyslaw Golba of Polish solidarity.

As he spoke, a woman inquired whether there was a quorum, if so many members were present.

Grysiak journalist Bridget points out that politicians of all options are surprised and embarrassed by telephone from the embassy.

The question whether they were party discipline, that's ... scandalous - said Mr Slawomir Neumann of the PO.

Americans should cool down a little, because such behavior is interference in the internal affairs of the Polish parliament. We feel great friendship for the United States, but somewhere there are limits...

We are partners, not a subordinate parliament in Congress or the Obama administration

EU approval after OK by 22 countries is a formality. But that won't be until June. And all the protests by then will be forgotten.
