Quote of the Day (June 17, 2010)

*
Guido Fawkes:
"As PM it would be extremely discourteous for [David Cameron] not to meet and be photographed with Palin if she was in town, a [courtesy] British PMs have extended to lesser known American politicians. Guido’s transatlantic sources indicate that she could be over on this side of the pond in the Autumn, perhaps around the time of Conservative Party conference, just when Dan Hannan and Douglas Carswell will be launching their Direct Democracy version of the American Tea Party movement."

  1. The Direct Democracy movement is fascinating. While I lived in the UK in the mid 70s for only three years, their mission statement seems "revolutionary". The "average" citizen there seemed very remote from governance, in contrast to the degree of involvement of the "average" America. If this movement gains a foothold and achieves any of the mission statement, it will be wonderful for the people of the UK, moving them closer to the concept of freedom which is espoused by our Constitution.
