We need someone with Daniel Hannan's clear, concise thinking and expression in the US. He's doing his darndest to straighten things up there, so it's unlikely he'd come work on our problems, too. But he's very clear in his recommendations that we fight Obamacare and gives very good reasons.

Think About It ...
- **GANDALF THE WHITE said..."Other evils there are that may come... Yet it is not our part to master all the tides of the world, but to do what is in us for the succor of those years wherein we are set, uprooting the evil in the fields that we know, so that those who live after may have clean earth to till. What weather they shall have is not ours to rule"
- **JOHN STUART MILL SAID**..."A man who has nothing for which he is willing to fight; nothing he cares about more than his own personal safety is a miserable creature who has no chance of being free, unless made and kept so by exertions of better men than himself."
Right off the bat: "I tried to say to him what I figured my constituents would want to say to him if they were there."
What a remarkable concept. I wonder if the thought ever occurred to any of our representatives - now undergoing the agonizing ritual of "town hall meetings".

Agreed, Mike ... I can't imagine DeFazio going back to Washington, DC and saying ... "Well, my constituents are overwhelmingly against the ObamaCare bill, so I have to vote against it!"
No, he's more like "Well, some of my constituents are against it, but they don't really understand it. There are *lots* of my constituents who like the idea ... they may not totally understand it, but they are the ones I agree with, and I think the Conservatives/Republicans are full of crap anyway, so I'll do what I think is best for my people, even if the majority of them don't agree."
