Look, if they could forge a birth certificate for Obama… (I kid! I kid!!!)
Seriously, Conservative Member of the European Parliament and right-wing Β rock star Daniel Hannan once again shows he “gets it” when it comes to what makes the Anglo-American civilization exceptional. This video is from a brief address Hannan gave to the Freedom Association at Runnymede during a gathering to honor Magna Carta, the great charter that is the ancestor of our own Constitution and one of the foundations for our idea of the Rule of Law.
Take a few minutes and enjoy; it’s an inspirational lecture on what Hannan calls “a secular miracle:”
You know, if this whole EU parliament thing just doesn’t work out, I’d be happy to offer Dan one of California’s seats in the US Senate.
