too bad the Conservatives taking over aren't the brightest bulbs either, never the less its nice to see Labour and Brown go down in flames finally, they've done enough damage to the UK.
looks like the EU in general is shifting to the Right, like Israel did earlier this year, now that the US is Left.
also, it appears the UK Independence Party finished Second, ahead of Labour which is really humiliating for them. They are like a right-leaning Libertarian party(i.e. strong on defense).
Europe moves Right and Conservative, while the Obama Worship Train barrels us down the tracks of Socialistic Ruin straight into Communism that Flirts very Strongly with Fascism.
Boys we have got us one Bright Bulb in "Da White Howze".
If we could just harness and store all the WASTED ENERGY from Air Force One these last 4 Months .....
"OR"
Maybe we can get cars to run off Hot Air and Teleprompters .... with Obama never shutting off either his mouth or his Teleprompters, we could power ALL of the Americas (North, Central, and South) plus Canada and Cuber (Ted Lingo there).
To tell Gordon Brown to take a hike, they are quoting everything from DR Seuss to Oliver Cromwell:
Quote:"Gordon Brown will you please Go Now!"
Quote:Given in the House of Commons
20 April 1653
"...It is high time for me to put an end to your sitting in this place, which you have dishonoured by your contempt of all virtue, and defiled by your practice of every vice; ye are a factious crew, and enemies to all good government; ye are a pack of mercenary wretches, and would like Esau sell your country for a mess of pottage, and like Judas betray your God for a few pieces of money.
"Is there a single virtue now remaining amongst you? Is there one vice you do not possess? Ye have no more religion than my horse; gold is your God; which of you have not barter'd your conscience for bribes? Is there a man amongst you that has the least care for the good of the Commonwealth?
"Ye sordid prostitutes, have you not defil'd this sacred place, and turn'd the Lord's temple into a den of thieves by your immoral principles and wicked practices? Ye are grown intolerably odious to the whole nation; you were deputed here by the people to get grievances redress'd; your country therefore calls upon me to cleanse the Augean Stable, by putting a final period to your iniquitous proceedings, and which by God's help and the strength He has given me, I now come to do.
"I command ye, therefore, upon the peril of your lives, to depart immediately out of this place! Take away that shining bauble there, and lock up the doors. You have sat here too long for the good you do. In the name of God, go!"

Hannan quoted Dr. Seuss and mentioned they had been quoting Oliver Cromwell's House of Rump speech which I quoted after it. Famous Puritian leader during the Civil Wars.....that speech is one reason why in the other thread I said I wanted to make a movie of him during that period, because there are so many climatic points like that speech and the fact stories from that era never get told. Possibly because he was 'controversial', especially with Irish Catholics.
