Everyone's last name is Johnson.....that explains a lot! NO other comedy can ever touch this one! All this talent in one movie?....Thank you Mel Brooks!!
Well, Johnson is a rather common name. (Intermarriage could be part of that, but I don't think it's the whole story.) One clan holding tight the reins of power? Quite conceivably. That's not unknown.
God, it's hilarious how closely Brooks' classic resembles today's political scene. In a nutshell, the "white God-Fearing citizens of Rock Ridge" are the GOP plus the TeaBagger crowd. User balkthor can blow it out his ass.
Okay for the love of God, can we PLEASE stop bringing up Bush, Iraq, and Obama in EVERY VIDEO. I swear, it's impossible to get away from it.
How the hell you guys went from a hilarious movie to debating a tired subject is beyond me. Unless any of you have poli-sci degrees AND at least two years of public service, just stfu. Noone cares.
That is definitely how the Dems grew in power. It's not like we got into Iraq from power (of fear from the 9/11 mentality that all Muslims are out to get us... anyone who thinks otherwise is anti American), lies (weapons of mass destruction anyone?) and misinformation (Saddam cooperated with bin Laden to attack the US).
And those northeast liberal elitists that were killed in the South for trying to register black voters and fight for civil rights, they were the biggest panderers of all!

The only problem with the war in Iraq was Bush allowing the dems to politicize it as they did global warming and Katrina. Prior to the dems losing the house The ywere happy just to call Republicans names. Now the commies insist on "changing" the US just to stay in power
:56 gets funnier even after seeing this movie a million times. Liam Dunn was awesome in this movie but I thought he was funnier as the judge in "What's Up Doc." (1972)
No it doesn't. Republicans are not racist, we just cator to no groups. The Democrats were the party of the KKK and other racists. RObert Bird was a head Klansmen till he learned from TEd K that it is better to pander to people than to hate them.Thats how the dems have grown in power, lies and misinformation
HA! The Repubs cater to one group: white, southern males! Those guys used to be Dems until the Civil rights era, when the Dem Party courageously did what was right (with some Repub help from the northeast and midwest) knowing the racists would leave the party--and they did, right into the Repub Party as Thurmond and Nixon planned.
Southern white males prefer small streamlined gov. That meddles as little as possible.Those same southern white males are the same folks who make up 90% of our military. That includes Mexican s & PRs. Your allegation that Nixon conspired with anyone is a myth. The fact is the GOP has never pandered to anyone. Not till Bush started seeking the Christians vote .Till Bush, Christians voted as much for dems as the did Rep.
Again, to all of you going on about this, shut up. Go join a political debate club. It's a goddamn Mel Brooks movie and you're all whining about Democrats and Republicans.
The real funny thing about that is that Mel Brooks named Gov. Wm. J. LePetomane after a turn-of-the-20th-century French guy who was stage-named LePetomane ("fart-maniac") who made his living from his asshole.
He could fart on command, take air and water in and out of his hole and even play music with his farts!
"LePetomane Thruway? What will that asshole think of next?"
