Very Reaganesque speech. Our PM in Canada sheed heed what is being said. Sadly this MP is not the leader of the Conservative Party in Britain. Instead it is lead by Cameron, who is about as conservative as Howard Dean.

Eh, not quite the conservative dreamboat we hoped he’d be: He’s anti-stimulus but willing to give The One a few more months before pronouncing judgment.

I dunno, check out his appearance on Beck last night. He’s kind of “the man”, IMO.

WOW! Send this video to your Rep's/Senators and BHO. Completely relevant. All one needs to do is change the names of the guilty.

You are right. G.W. turned into a RINO tool and abandoned conservative values. However, O's current plan of "tax and spend" and the socialization of our country is dangerous and destructive. We are now being lectured by China and the E.U. about the dangerous path we are headed. Yet, BHO continues with little regard for what everyone is saying. Let's focus on the here and the now. Quit blaming "W". He is gone and irrelevant to the required solution.

It’s funny, I listen to this and hear what I would prefer to say not just about Obama, but even more so about George Bush. While our economy was booming, he was spending and spending and running up massive debts — doing precisely what Tony Blair and Gordon Brown did. When he economy turned — as it always does — we found ourselves in a huge hole.

Not to let Obama slide, but it was not he who ran up massive debts during boom times.

The update shows him to be a well-reasoned man, as the video shows he is solidly principled. He still needs to come over here and hold mandatory classes for his GOP counterparts (and in those classes, corporal punishment by the teacher would not only be permitted, but encouraged.)

Daniel Hannan was interviewed by Cavuto on Fox Business in the 9 o’clock hour. GREAT interview! Would love to see a few highlights on this blog post from that interview.

No prompter, AND no giant screen prompter either?!? You mean a public official can speak with only a few glances at notes? Impossible, I say!

Did anyone notice that Hannan delivered that without a teleprompter?

I say that we need people like that HERE, then again, they would actually enforce immigration law on him.

Let’s do an exchange, we’ll take him and his ilk, they can have, well you know…

I wish Allah would post the Cauvoto clip, it was good until the end when he explained his endorsement of The Won. Honest to goodness one of the reasons he gave for the U.S. being better off is that we elected a “bi-racial candidate.

Did anyone mention in this thread that Hannan was on with Cavuto this afternoon? He was great.

Any way to find a video, Ed or Allah?

Wonder what Obama’s visit to the G20 will be like?!

Believe me, I have thought of that often and I cringe.

and where is our GOP equivalent?
Someone to go toe to toe with Obummer and tell him ‘YOU SIR, HAVE NO CLOTHES’.

No one want to get a little… mavericky?

Maybe then, the GOP can take advantage of emryonic cells and grow freaking spines.
