Yeah, this Toby Harnden has no clue or he is just pushing his own brand of conservative.

And Snowe. And Meg Whitman. WTH? The UK needs some basic lessons in the U.S. definition of conservative.

Although they do have Colin Powel as a most influential liberal - so they got something right.

I'll send one back to the UK. Just one name, cause that's all you got..... Sir Winston Churchill. The last man of courage that the UK had to offer. God knows, that he would roll in his grave if he show his precious island now.

When my life is done maybe God will grant me lunch with that great man. I'll bring the cigars.

So you mean “man” in the modern sense (i.e., exclusive of women)? Maggie’s ticked.

Well, they do list Erickson and Ruddy. Gotta think a Robinson is coming up.

Also, gotta think that Sean Hannity would be on the list. I believe his views are staunchly conservative. However, there is this troubling reality: he keeps getting tripped up by libs who are better informed on the issues than he is. I wish that he would curtail some of his off-camera self-promotion activities (which eat up a LOT of his time) and, instead, devote time to actually reading the books he mentions on his show. As it is, he has staff read them for him and then write up quick synopses that he fits into his programming. Problem is, people who ARE well-read clearly discern that he is NOT a reader and this is greatly handicapping him, though I doubt that he is even aware of it. He would be such a stronger force for the good if he would educate himself. Let’s hope he does. No matter what, though, I like him.
