Daniel Hannan on Glenn Beck: on the so-called "right wing" Euro parties which are actually LEFT wing

[minimacca999]

I would take hannan more seriously if he didn't just lie nobody refers to stalinist nostalgics are right wing.

[seanomoric]

The whole "right" and "left" division of the political spectrum refers to social values, not economic policy. It's essentially a straw man argument to attempt to qualify right and left wing in terms of economic policy due to the simple fact that there are correlated factors.

National Socialism is economically tied to communism and left-wing socialism through economic policy, whereas it is part of the right-wing due to traditionalist social policy.

[deejaykay]

Of course the BNP is right-wing. They're nationalist, as opposed to left-wing internationalism. They're anti-egalitarian, as opposed to left-wing socialism.

Libertarianism was a radical ideology that opposed conservatism. Conservatism is & was not about individualism. Today 'right-wing' can mean libertarian and/or conservative. There are opposing elements among the right-wing.

Those in this video are like an 8 y/o not wanting to be called a child because that category includes 4 y/o's

@deejaykay no not really he was making the fundamental point that BNP have socialist policies which are of the left, yet right wing is what theyre labelled and has become a by word for the nasty people as it were, conservatism as an ideology is about individuality even if the British Tories havent adhered to that. They may be right they may be left but in reality taking the BNP as an example the right - left idea system is a fallacy left over product of the french revolution.

obamas an idiot.

[sgsfdgfsdfsdfsddf]

communism historically has been allied with anarchism

[dems4amer]

National Socialism and Comunism both grew out of Progressiveism

So it does not matter what you call it all that matters is that it now controls the USA

Obama will bring economic and social justice to us and the to the entire world

This is long over due

[ddmath]

Ironic that you bring up the two worst scourges of the 20th century, then the same breath a Obama's administration. Do you have some inside information on the coming dictatorship that we peons are not privy too?

[dcarterfrom07]

and obama has been appointed as the ruling judge to decide on historical injustices..... im sure that every tribe since the beginning of time has suffered at least one "injustice".... will the tribes that seem to have recovered get social and economic justice or just the ones that are poor or oppressed in the present day.... or perhaps there will be some sort of time frame to make it more realistic and achievable.. justice for all or no justice at all... "social justice" is a fairy tale

panty waist, love it

[Staticnz]

Did Beck just lick his sleeve.

[LeGioNoFZioN]

yeah what up with that ?

[yakyakyak69]

Beck was playing a joke in that British like tea and Americans perfer coffee. Beck was saying that he prefers coffee, that's all. It was for those with an imagination and a sense of humor.

[JazzSpider]

Yes, he did. Glenn Beck just licked his sleeve. Funniest thing I've seen all day.

What's with the tea anyway? Don't the Americans still owe the British for all those crates of tea they tipped into the Boston harbour? An American ostentatiously sipping tea in a British face is like a bailed-out banker burning a USD100 bill in front of some starving orphans.

[HormelHanz]

all the big news coming out of ur own country and u show nothing but news from a foreign nation? haha proud to be canadian indeed...aahahahahahah!!!!

[pandaEXPLOSHIN]

a lot of news that is banned from their own countries such as the US, is still on this channel.

[TimeWarp66]

Glenn Beck is a retard. He dumbs himself down and says folksy stupidities to get more views from his idiot redneck audience.

Ideologically speaking, I agree with him, I'm a Libertarian, but on a personal level, he's a moron.

[Drumboy5165]

Well, if you watch and listen you'll discover he's not a snob, sorry if that offends you.

The only idiot here...well I won't insult you. Cuz, gosh golly I'm jus a dern ole idiot redneck wif no idear what ya'll r talkin bout.

You have the gall to say he talks 'down' while you call someone an "idiot redneck"?

Moron does fit, but not him.

[aqelfaris]

Thanks, PTBC. If there are any libertarians among these so-called "right wingers," I have yet to see one.

[xaviqaz]

among left-wingers there are much less, for sure

[CanadianCalabo]

That is crazy stuff. i'm a fan of glenn beck, and daniel hannan. good video. 5 stars.
