Habermas certainly is no thinker who can easily been wiped off the table.

Jürgen Habermas, 78, is one of the most influential philosophers and social theorists of the last century. Along with his French counterpart Jacques Derrida, Habermas made a plea for for the rebirth of the European Union in 2003. Now that Ireland has rejected the Lisbon Treaty, he says it is time for European politicians to turn the EU's future over to the people.

I didn't know that SubSim was responsible for Habermas' comments. Neal's a bigger fish than I thought.

I told Habermas to cut that crap out. What a rabble rouser.
