Daniel Hannan Reminds Americans of Our Exceptionalism

It’s sad that a British subject and parliamentarian has more respect for the American Constitution than some of our Supreme Court justices, politicians, and current president. Daniel Hannan warns the United States to not follow the European model. He also reminds us of how unique we are, and that the world is better because of our American values.

Mr. Hannan emphasizes American exceptionalism. A quality some of our so-called leaders refuse to recognize.

British Teen Banned from U.S. for Calling Obama a Prick

A British Teen is banned for life from the United States after he left a message calling Barack Obama a prick:

He said: "I don't remember exactly what I wrote as I was drunk. But I think I called Barack Obama a p***k. It was silly - the sort of thing you do when you're a teenager and have had a few."



Luke, of Silsoe, Beds, said it was "a bit extreme" for the FBI to act.


He added: "The police came and took my picture and told me I was banned from America forever. I don't really care but my parents aren't very happy."


A Beds Police spokesman said: "The individual sent an email to the White House full of abusive and threatening language. We were informed by the Metropolitan Police and went to see him. He said, 'Oh dear, it was me'."


Officers will take no criminal action.


Joanne Ferreira, of the US Department of Homeland Security, said there are about 60 reasons a person can be barred.


She added: "We are prohibited from discussing specific cases."

All this kid did was call Obama a prick?  And he was banned from entering the country forever?  There are a hell of alot of Americans who'd better not leave the country.  If that's the criteria, we wouldn't be allowed back in.
