Wow…A politician who understands…
Politicians with promises to take care of the population are as dangerous as drug pushers on a corner. Who could resist? A chicken in every pot, a car in every garage...they are the impossible promises that are the Siren's Song of doom and gloom for those who follow it with their votes and support. Until people realize that it is impossible for a government to give anything away for free or to provide it cheaply we will continue down the spiral that Hannan warns us about. Besides borrowing and printing (which is borrowing) money it can only come from the citizens. Tax the corporations and they too must and will eventually pass on that cost to the very people who want the government to take care of all their needs. This song has played throughout history and the results are always disastrously the same…the politicians get the power and control and the people get nothing but suffering. When will we ever learn?
Wow, calm down man. Justin was merely pointing out that Dr. Paul has been saying every one of these things since 1976. No need to go off.
If you don't like Dr. Paul, fine.
If the people in the audience believe what he's saying they will vote for Ron Paul for he is the ONLY candidate who has faithfully upheld his oath to the Constitution.
Jindal is not eligible to be president. He is not a natural born American citizen, by definition. By example of Obama, maybe he is.
He is awesome and has lots of good information. However, not all of our officials are elected. More and more are being appointed and we have no control over them.
It's too bad Daniel Hannan can't run for U.S. President. He has everything we're looking for in a candidate...charisma, intelligence, wit, common sense, Conservatism, and is another "Great Communicator". He is the Ronald Reagan of the United Kingdom!
stevenbiot, you have told us what you do not like. May I ask you to kindly let us know what you propose for the common good?
Unfortunately for Britain those who march in step with Daniel Hannan are not in his Conservative party. They are emigres from that party who have reformed as the UK Independence Party, UKIP, which seeks to take Britain out of the European Union.
I am sure that I speak for most members of UKIP when I say that we would be overjoyed should Mr Hannan join us in UKIP since we have as leader Nigel Farage, the other great orator of our time.
Ron Paul has been pitching this delivery to the American electorate for many years past.
Awesome and absolutely dead on. 100% accurate. We MUST unelect nobama in November or our precious country is finished.
FYI, there is already a law on the FCC books. Obama has ignored it. Your posts are already being, 'editied'. I suggest you vet your candidates. I still will vote for Newt.
There were a great big bunch of us, trying to stop it. Undoing it, may prove a lot harder than you can imagine.
I was transfixed. He made me proud of America. Then, I was sad. To think that a stranger, could come to our shores, and describe our great nation, while no one in Washington has the intestial fortitude, to do it. Our President is athema to USA freedom, yet elected by a majority. Then, I hear the bickering of the candidates, and I am ashamed, once again. WHATS NEXT!
Just Superb!!!! With all these wonderful people and our kids get nonsense in schools.
Love this man. Thank You Daniel
How refreshing, succinct, cogent, and concise are the points put forth by this man! The UK is a better place for having him, and I pray his life's work is completed. He is right, we need to fight for the heart and soul of this nation!
This man is phenomenal. We need a politician like him in the White House and not the Obama regime.
It is what is euphemistically known as "Mid-Atlantic."
Translation: we don't really know where it originates. :)
So does this mean everyone here is voting for Ron Paul. Hannan is a Paul supporter. Search their names together.
Crickey! Amazing. (Although Jefferson and Washington both lived in elegance and not austerity - and Reagan had multiple homes including quite a spread in Santa Barbara).
Funny you should mentiion that, but omitted they were rich before they entered politics. I also add, read RR biography.
There are certainly some Brits who get it and this gentleman I nominate as an honorary Unites States Citizen born abroad, unlike another better known character with whom we are all sadly familiar sans the fantastic liberty oriented worldview.
It's worse than I thought...
Marky_D, if you adduce ONLY these 3 prominent non-government voices, Douglas Murray, Peter Hitchins and Melanie Phillips and NO government people, well, the sovereign spiral down is nearing the nadir, it seems to me.
>> Douglas Murray - http://blogs.telegraph.co.uk/news/author/douglasmurray/
>> Peter Hitchins - http://hitchensblog.mailonsunday.co.uk/
>> Melanie Phillips - http://melaniephillips.com/
Where's the Margaret Thatcher of the 21st century who can stand in the gap and counter the Archbishop of Canterbury who speaks like a humbled dhimmi and defends the islamization of Europe.
I wonder if N. T. Wright is being vocal about islamization?
It's worse than we in America have been led to believe.
Thanks again, Marky_D, and keep us informed here in this TheRightScoop forum.

I just watched the Diane Abbott grilling by the host of "This Week" (found it through your Douglas Murray link.) It's fun to watch liberals meltdown on camera.
The EU and Islamization...
Thanks, again, Marky_D, for such a clear explanation.
It's too bad that Daniel Hannan is not more vocal about islamization and sharia, sharia courts and islamic no-go-zones.
What a mess when a sovereign nation can "... not act on that goal..." to protect it's national identity.
In addition to private citizen Douglas Murray, is there NOBODY?... SOMEBODY?... ANYBODY?... in government who can articulate a common sense defense against islamization and the goal of putting miniarets on Buckingham Palace and demanding that Queen Elizabeth and Prince Charles and Prince William and et al. say the Shahadah 3 times?

BRAVO, Daniel Hannan, MP! It should be the goal of England to elect you as Prime Minister and withdraw from the EU immediately and bring Great Britian back to her greatness!
Incredible!
Mr. Hannan is a pleasure to listen to.
He’s knowledgeable, and the view from his window allows us a remarkable perspective.
Thanks, Marky_D...
Bookmarked and ready.
- Do you have links to what Hannan has said about the islamic invasion and sharia?
- Is there a time frame for when the minarets will be installed on Buckingham Palace?
- Has Prince Charles said the Shahada 3 times yet?
Just wonderin'...

What is the "Shahada"? - IslamWorld.net -
>> http://islamworld.net/docs/become.html
"The Shahada can be declared as follows:
"ASH-HADU ANLA ELAHA ILLA-ALLAH WA ASH-HADU ANNA MOHAMMADAN RASUL-ALLAH".
"The English translation is:
"I bear witness that there is no deity but, Allah, and I bear witness that Mohammad is the messenger of Allah"

Daniel Hannan called our Declaration of Independence and Constitution, a 'secular' miracle in Philadelphia that made America great, but truly, it was a full-fledged divine intervention. No group of human beings could have achieved such ideas without the help and guidance of God that these wise men sought day after day.
Hannan also said, the greatest gift in government is 'the renunciation of power' and limited terms for head of state. The former UK Bishop Nazir Ali, a native of Pakistan, wrote that one of the signs of tyrannies such as we see in communist and Islamic countries is the reluctance, indeed, the refusal to give up power. In the Middle East assassination, riots, war and revolution are the usual methods of change of government. Elections only follow revolution and these elections always bring about the desired result or there is another assassination, riot or election. There is continual instability that keeps these nations from prospering in peace and freedom. Peaceful change of power is a sign of a civilized nation.
Our current president, according to several psychological profilers, is a narcissist with high dictatorial traits and tendencies. Just this week, in dealing with contraception and abortion, Obama has shown that he is a usurper of powers beyond those given him by the Constitution. He is dictating that insurance companies pay for contracepton. This is typical Obama's administration. They are not respecters of the law...they ignore it.
Moreover, Congress, both Democrats and Republicans, are not using the powers given them to stop Obama and Holder. They are ignoring the brazen crony corruption, his unconstitutional acts and the absurd, horrendous, profligate looting of our economy, the ludicrous Occupy Wall Street movement, the threats of violence by Soros and Hoffa.
WHY?
Are they cowards or just too corrupt themselves to act or even care?
Newt is the only one, beside Bachmann, who seems to understand the horror of what is going on in Washington.
Bachmann said that Obama is extremely dangerous to the security of the US. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZtRx90ey2HU&feature=player_embedded
Here is her CPAC speech: http://constitutionclub.org/2012/02/10/michele-bachmann-cpac-speech-2012/
Daniiel Hannan said...
Well, Hannan said so much so well, and... he said it without a teleprompter... that I will mention only one thing.
The aphid is NOT on the leaf... yet.
The Republic must... MUST... get rid of BHObama and his progressive socialist marxist regime... MUST.
Rick Santorum and Newt Gingrich and Ron Paul and Willard Romney...
... did you hear Daniel Hannan speak?
Talk like THAT... please.

Thank you, RS! The folks across the pond should hear this too. I posted a link on the Telegraph.
I support changing the Constitution so we can have a Daniel Hannan/ Mark Steyn ticket.
