If the MicroSoft monopolist consortium didn't actually want the EU software 
patent directive, then perhaps you can explain their schizophrenic 
justification for authoring the language and aggressively lobbying to have it 
passed?

If more than 14 EU parlaiment members supported MicoSoft's special interest 
agenda, they would have voted in favor of the patent directive which that 
company designed and lobbied to install.
