    This woman is so powerful, she does not even need a treaty to prove it,

    European union should really be the German union...

    WTF!

    Where's TMBOA?

    Cue screaming from The Pink Whorehouse!

    It just shows how society has changed: there's only Merkel, Clinton, Barra and DumbAss Dilma doing anything like holding down real jobs.

    The fact that Dilma even managed to make the list, is a miracle.... to tell the truth, it is not even she that yields 'real' power here in Brazil....she is just an incompetent puppet controlled by Brazil's biggest crook, Lulu....

    I like to keep a low profile. .. as you all know.
    :-)
    But I would like to vote Isolde as 'Most Influential' Woman on Mercopress.

    With ElaineB as 'Most Insightful'.

    I don’t know about Isolde and certainly EB insightful is out of the question, but I will vote you as the most beautiful woman on Mercopress.

    @ 8 spanisharseholee

    You are back!

    Asylum full, is it?

    Never mind go and console Rajoy, he needs all the help he can get because everybody else is telling the “established” parties to sling their hook.

    Must be great living in the cesspit that mainland Spain has become.
