orwell, the sensuous orwell, which is there is a lot. and another thing i discovered in orwell and it made me want to be an essayist and it made me feel i wanted to develop different kind of literary voices if i could, i was a journalist sort of instinctively really as well as i hope this historian from the time i was a child, really, school magazine, very bad. found the university newspaper but always worse and i wanted to have that -- i sincerely dedicate of books of essay most of it is journalism not all of it, to my editors because i actually -- you know, you write in a different way or you try to without being deliberately comenial light. i've been called that. but you write in a different way, you know, a vogue column than you would a new york quickly turn-around art piece, the new word again for a gatheredian political column, for example. and it's the mastery of different moments, different audiences and now, you know, contribute can to the financial times and i do all sorts of things from interviews. i like those different -- sl

orwell was a problem for me until i read the toad and other things like it in this kind of vain of orwell with his shop collar undone and much else, really. because he was held up to us in the 1950s, not just as a politicallist, which he was, but as someone for whom english writing as he himself said should be as transparent as cleanly described window pane. it should be max -- it should privilege the clear, the unfussy, the unage five. it's very hard to make -- it was hard to make the uncharmers, it's hard to make the old charmers unage tie value. it was a large template for us to be commanded to follow as the model of pure english starts the genius stock of white or something. and it's difficult for me because i had a draconian childhood in every conceivable way. which would be too complicated and lengthy to tell you about. my father was enamored of orwell. he read my sister and i a lot of dickens. and a lot of it was frighten. with the dickens, it's a plenitude of life of the importance of containing within the possibly broken, massively python like in the appetite to engeorge itself o

i can't only george orwell in one thousand nine hundred four could do the same thing as saying the ministry of war is actually the ministry of peace that's what this is about mr boehner in my judgment has actually been much too weak in the feet in imposing a sanction for this usurpation the founding fathers intended the impeachment clause to utilize a president is committing a high crime and misdemeanor when he flouts the constitution in such a grave way and in violation of his oath of office and this is what the remedy the founding fathers crafted in order to make certain no ever president would commit that same violation the second occasion but what are we dealing with a bigger issue than just obamacare i mean every single president since reagan is a vision of grenada launched a war of his own and congress hasn't declared war since world war two so maybe this is a culture of warfare i. make it legal let me give you an example there's something called a legislative veto that enabled congress by one chamber or two without any congressional i mean presidential veto to frustrate executive ban

a might as well have ripped his words straight from the text of orwell's one thousand nine hundred eighty four and big brother told everyone that war is peace but last week he went on steroids to really commit america to a war ravaged dystopia last week congress took a step toward shrine in perpetual war into law with the defense authorization act it reads congress affirms that the united states is engaged in an armed conflict with al qaida the taliban and associated forces and that those entities continue to pose a threat to the united states and its citizens the president has the authority to use all necessary and appropriate force during the current armed conflict pursuant to the authorization for use of military force until the terminations of hostilities. in other words war of terror war on terror excuse me until all the terrorists on planet earth are killed something that will never happen this is the worst nightmare for james madison the father of our constitution the fourth president of the united states madison wrote so eloquently that of all the enemies of true liberty war is pe

service which is about free healthcare for all are now starting to see that just like in george orwell's animal farm some humans are more equal than others and if you come from a rich family you can maintain your position by having your university paid for by average parents and if you're poor you have to get yourself into forty thousand pounds worth of debt which you'll find a way around your neck for the rest of your life paying off things like i think are not that different here than they are there and just want to get your take i mean to what extent do you think this is a fact of what's happening in greece and the us talk about how interconnected you think these crises. well the one of the of the drawbacks to globalize a shim is that when there is a puncture in the tyro the world it kind of spins around in every one of the flights and that's what we've seen. is the european problem it's very soon here and it's funny seeing the world bank and the i.m.f. even more and the countries which have their problems on the one way they're trying to say for people to sit back is going to say oh

it's like another page of the george orwell novel. the poor guy should get royalties. this is a dystopia. he wasn't giving us is model to live by. now, i also talk a little bit about, but i'm going to spare you folks this, the savings and loan crisis of the 1980s that's supposedly another case when the free market run amuck and that was the case of an institution husbanded by the government given an impossible business model when you have an rising interest rates and interest rates. but they keep ensuring their deposits and then they are surprised when they make reckless investments and then that's blamed on the free market. even though the government guarantees behind it. what i did want to talk about the classic case about the government blaming everyone but itself for failing and that's the most recent financial crisis. now, the left typically says that those of us in this room are engaged in special pleading when we try to pin the blame on what we just endured for the government and the federal reserve and if we weren't wearing our laissez-faire blinders we would s

i often urge people to orwell's book "1984" because the language used by president obama in particularn the libya issue to muddy the waters is so reminiscent of the language used in that book about a country where the government controls everything, including the minds of the people, partly by the use of language that is completely distorted. mr. speaker, i have read the letter that president obama sent to congress. he should have come in person to make his case, but even then i doubt that we would agree to continue operations in libya. the letter that the president sent us does not even begin to comply with the requirements of the war powers act. let me read parts of it and enter the entire letter into the record, mr. speaker. here's how the letter begins, on march 21 i reported to congress of the united states pursuant to a request from the arab league an authorization by the united nations security council had acted two days earlier to prevent a humanitarian catastrophe by deploying u.s. forces to protect the people of libya from the gaddafi regime. as you know over these last two m
