Estonia has a REAL President!

Can we have one too?  Yeah, I know, WTF is Estonia?  It's a former Soviet satellite, a tiny little country which came out of the Cold War reasonably intact.

Oh, did I mention that Estonia is economically kicking ass while the rest of Europe is falling apart? Of course, their methods are based on common sense, rather than socialist bullcrap, so those 'economists' who worship statism are quick to put them down.  Well, President Ilves ain't havin' it.  Here's one of a string of his tweets to Paul Dumbass Krugman, word for word:


Chill. Just because my country’s policy runs against the Received Wisdom & I object doesn’t mean y’all gotta follow me….


RTWT.  Now, that's how a REAL President rolls.  Well done, sir...if--despite our best efforts--America falls, any chance of getting a visa?
