Frat Posts: 1939 Incept: 2009-07-15 NKY	Agreed Gamma, I was going to say "Can we order a dozen or so of this guy?" Ballsy, charismatic, and someone WHO'S TELLING THE TRUTH. Whoa now, we can't have that! We might run out of bankers to finance our next campaign! ---------- We're ***ed. Where's Henry Bowman when you need him? 2012-03-16 19:05:02 Permalink*

LMAO!! ---------- Corporations have been enthroned, and an era of corruption in high places will follow, and the money power of the country will endeavor to prolong its reign by working upon the prejudices of the people until the wealth is aggregated in the hands of a few, and the Republic is destroyed. -- Abraham Lincoln.. 2012-03-16 19:06:44 Permalink*

Steelhead23 Posts: 2073 Incept: 2008-09-09 Portland OR	What makes this extra fun, is the guy is downright erudite. He knows history and recent culture, and loves sarcasm. He'd be a real hit on SNL. Just imagine a skit with Tina Fey as Ms Palin and Nigel discussing international finance. As Chester Cheetah says, "Do it!" ---------- "Give me control of a nation's money and I care not who makes it's laws" ~~Mayer Amschel Bauer Rothschild~~ Benjamin Bernanke For-profit commercial banks are a menace and should be eradicated 2012-03-16 19:21:49 Permalink
Rd Posts: 487 Incept: 2008-02-27 Long Island, NY	Dylan Ratagan should get him to do a five minute segment roasting our leaders and financial elite. I can just imagine him doing Bernanke, Blankfine or Buffett. 2012-03-16 19:23:18 Permalink
Fnamekeith Posts: 478 Incept: 2008-04-07 Seattle	I really enjoy his style. I went to his web site and dropped him a note of thanks for at least getting some truth out there. In case anyone's interested: http://nigelfaragemep.co.uk/ ---------- Give a man a gun and he can rob a bank, give a man a bank and he can rob the world. 2012-03-16 19:27:22 Permalink

Ghopper Posts: 2317 Incept: 2011-06-11 Staten Island, NY	I see on his site that his party will support the 'NO' campaign in Ireland regarding the referendum. Quote: "Speaking in Skegness, Mr Farage said the Irish had accepted an austerity package and taken the pain, yet they now see the Greeks being let off half their debt. I would be pretty cheesed off if I was Irish, I would be saying, Hang on, we have played by the rules, said Mr Farage, who said he would support the No campaign during the upcoming referendum." http://nigelfaragemep.co.uk/pages/posts/....

Stonedog Posts: 2084 Incept: 2008-05-29 New Jersey	Between him and Daniel Hannan, the Brits have two really amazing speakers in the EU who are telling it like it is. ---------- "I would characterize my professional disdain as more of a professional contempt for their [Central Banker, Banker and politician] economic and financial policies, priorities, presumptions and prescriptions." - Lauren Lyster on Capital Account for Friday June 16, 2012 "All the stimulus, the bailouts, the quantit 2012-03-16 19:47:48 Permalink
Susanjbear Posts: 419 Incept: 2010-06-10 Salt Lake City, Utah	Boy this guy is milking the stereotypes and very effectively I will add ! :) Reminds me of the scene in "European Vacation" after Clark Griswald knocks down the Englishman on the bicycle, and then asks him for directions, and then the Englishman cheerfully points the way with visible blood spurting from his vein but assuring him not to worry about the blood. People live in a denial bubble of positivity because it is considered bad form to be otherwise. There is an article about this in Skeptic Magazine, vol 14, no 4, 2009 called "Positively Misguided: the Myths and the Mistakes of the Positive Thinking Movement." ---------- Susan 2012-03-16 19:52:14 Permalink
Dool Posts: 10 Incept: 2010-06-11 Albuquerque	He's got a big pair. I would love to hear the others afterwards. 2012-03-16 20:02:04 Permalink

Jeffrey_thomason Posts: 7124 Incept: 2009-03-11	Pass the Port, do enjoy the party! ---------- "Until we look beyond the throne where the power structure lies, we'll fight amongst ourselves as freedom dies. The only hope for human kind lies in solidarity. The strength in our numbers sets us free." 2012-03-16 20:57:36 Permalink
Mannfm11 Posts: 3608 Incept: 2009-02-28 DFW, Tx	Once every couple of months I look for videos and other media on Nigel. One of my favorite past times. The guys in the EC Parliment grimmace when he speaks, though they try not to take him seriously. There are clearly plenty of fascists and communists there with him. ---------- The only function of economic forecasting is to make astrology look respectable.---John Kenneth Galbraith 2012-03-16 21:03:24 Permalink
Themortgagedude Posts: 8894 Incept: 2007-12-17 saint louis	My favorite bit of Nigel - about 15 months ago ---------- I'm already visualizing you with duct tape over your mouth. Last modified: 2012-03-16 21:45:29 by themortgagedude 2012-03-16 21:44:40 Permalink
Tank Posts: 441 Incept: 2007-12-14 Seattle Area	"I would be pretty cheesed off if I was Irish..." That must be a phrase from across the pond, but I like it! ---------- "A danger foreseen is half avoided." -Thomas Fuller (1608-1661) 2012-03-16 23:18:55 Permalink
Trades50 Posts: 4237 Incept: 2007-10-30 Land of Tax and Spend	We need many more Nigels. Over the decades any statesmen were replaced with bureaucrats. ---------- When the people fear the government, there is tyranny. When the government fears the people, there is liberty. - Thomas Jefferson 2012-03-17 09:13:07 Permalink

Dashingdwl Posts: 9810 Incept: 2007-06-26 los angeles	Awesome. TMD's video "Who the hell do you think you are..." is brilliant. Quote "I can only hope the markets destroy the Euro experiment before that happens." He's referring to countries being stripped of liberties leading to nationalism and war. ---------- When you are hard and disciplined, you can be principled. People fear you because they have no leverage against you. It's the truest form of Liberty. 2012-03-17 12:33:58 Permalink
Eaglewwit Posts: 6054 Incept: 2007-11-30 SoCal Banned	Apparently Nigel has failed to notice that the S&P is over 1400. Everything is just peachy. 2012-03-17 14:06:05 Permalink
Medicdan Posts: 8127 Incept: 2010-02-11 Scottsdale, AZ	Nigel is going to be seen as a hero when this all comes crashing down on them. I just hope the common folk start asking why the news media never reported this. ---------- Arizona & desert gardening http://azediblegarden.com/ 2012-03-17 15:31:42 Permalink
