In case Institute’s website is down, YouTube has the following two-minute clip, which captures the speech’s flavor. But if you can the entire speech is very interesting.

Manhattan Institute Wriston Lecture
The Manhattan Institute has been an important force in shaping American political culture. By supporting and publicizing research on our era’s most challenging public policy issues: taxes, welfare, crime, the legal system, urban life, race, education, and many other topics, we have won new respect for market-oriented policies and helped make reform a reality.
The Manhattan Institute regularly hosts forums in New York City and Washington, DC for policy makers, business people, researchers and journalists.

Regardless of obama’s BS, America is the greatest country in the world.
I really admire Charles Krauthammer. He articulates better than anyone I know. He is the Bill Buckley of the time.
I know he would not, but I would love to see Krauthammer run for office. He and sarah Palin would make a team.
