It is not out of character for the Irish voters to reject the latest offer for a European Union constitution. They did it for themselves and for every other small nation in Europe. They do not want to go back to being a carelessly governed distant and small provence of an Empire. And neither do most other small European nations. The Irish however have the grit to stand up for democratic process and the character to tell the EU mandarins to “Pos Ma Hone.”
