I can't remember the name of the movie but watch the one where this guy is seriously cleaning his glasses for like 5 whole minutes and the running gag of the scene is squeaking noises...so hilarious :D
So the Soviets thought it would be a good idea to assault the United States, a nation of nearly 10 million square kilometers, using infantry and air bombardments? And, of all points of attack, they chose the single furthest place from Washington, DC? I mean, I know Alaska is close to Russia, but what the hell? I think the real message of this movie is supposed to be that the Soviets are stupid. And yet America is STILL overrun by the climax of the film!
I suppose that Mr Tractor Factory guy could expand his factory and hire new workers in order to provide tanks for the government (while pushing the cost onto Uncle Sam). That way everyone wins! Dealers get their tractors, government gets their tanks, and more average folks get jobs.
Or was Major Army asking for them to make tanks free of charge?
That would be a possibility, were it not for the fact that they're seriously suggesting Americans give up everything in order to fight communism. Unless you paint the communists as the heros of this film, there's little else you can get out of it.
Does anyone have know what on earth the Bobbi Gentry joke was about? If it doesn't mean anything, then it's one of the funniest nonsense jokes I've ever heard. Even Mike seemed surprised by it.
The army major has some questionable logic. "If an enemy nation invaded they'd be out of business for good." Um....no. They'd just work for the new occupying government.
The message of this film is apparently "It's unamerican to resist totalitarian government control of everything to fight that other totalitarian government that controls everything".
Er, why are people downvoting cahummel1's comment? I can only imagine that quite a few people don't realize he's stating the movie's point of view, not his own. Turn your irony meters on, folks.
There, thats better, and far more factual. Afterall, without tractors where will we get our cream corn? Sure, its not cool, but it is pretty damn important.
The end of that dinner sketch was just perfect. :D

"Tanks are more important than tractors" Thus is born the military industrial complex.
Tanks would be more important to the army, but just ask a farmer or someone who eats food how they feel. This movie is beyond idiotic.
