Last night's Have I Got News For You:
(From 2 minutes in until approx the 10 minute mark. The guests are Harry Shearer (from The Simpsons) and a UKIP [UK Independent Party] member. Hosted by Damian Lewis.)
A brief transcript of the bit that explains why we laugh our heads off every time people talk about Obama being 'a socialist':
UKIP bloke: "He's on Obama's side, isn't he [David Cameron]? The Tory Party now supports the left wing party. Is that right?"
Ian: "Mmmmnnm, but they're only left by... no one's terms, aren't they?"
Harry Shearer: "Obama's domestic policy is severely to the right of Richard Nixon."
Ian: "The Americans have a Conservative Party and a veeeery Conservative Party. And then they have a Tea Party which... you just don't want to know."
ETA: ( This is politics )
