Well, maybe pigs do sprout wings! Dan Hannan speaks kind words about Keynes, which draws a chuckle from the chair, and then proceeds to teach basic economic and political realities from the pages of Holy Scripture, which draws more of a chuckle from the chair--applause and smiles from the folks around him.
Of course, he quoted from the Authorized Version, and referred to Jesus of Nazareth as 'Our Lord', and cheerily assumed the chair knew the story of Jesus being questioned about taxation.
It's a wonderful performance, a classic. You can feel him twist the intellectual knife into the ribs of the Euro, using the eternal truth of the Savior's words.
Priceless.
Hot-damn! If only we could rent this guy out for a couple of decades. He would set us straight, or at least remind us how to be brave in public again, and how to use truth set to words to skewer the socialists.
