I got this video from I Hate the Media! “Who the hell do you think you are? The Euro game is up!”
…Consider it the European equivalent to that moment that moment when Rick Santelli erupted on CNBC and the Tea Party was created. The scene is European Parliament in Strasbourg on November 24. Nigel Farage, a member of the European Parliament representing the United Kingdom, is involved in a debate about economic governance when he loses it. “Who the hell do you think you are? The Euro game is up! … We don’t want that flag, we don’t want the anthem, we don’t want this political class. We want the whole thing consigned to the dust bin of history … You are very, very dangerous people indeed. Your obsession with creating this Euro-state means that you’re happy to destroy democracy. You appear to be happy for millions and millions of people to be unemployed and to be poor. Untold millions must suffer so that your Euro-dream can continue …”
Funny, that last bit sounds very similar to the situation and complaints back here in the states, too. “I should thank you! You should perhaps be the pinup boy of the EuroSkeptic movement!”

Gee, RM, I sure hope that Obama doesn’t see this, or he’ll go off a deeper end than he already has!!!
And No, President Obama you cannot order the IRS to audit Nigel’s tax returns, he’s a British citizen!!!

I’m sure there are plenty of people in the British government who’d love to sic Inland Revenue on Mr. Farage.

Yep. After watching that video, I watched about a dozen more of his clips on YouTube.
