Mark Levin - Oct 14th - Alinsky's Rules for Radicals (Part 1 of 3)

[huckfinn22]

hahahaha ... Salinsky considered himself radical, but he was just a non-violent guy with a strategy on how to work within the system to enact change rather than use really radical "2nd Amendment" solutions. Kind of like the Tea Party has done to the Republican Party ousting moderates with radical righties. Except Salinsky favored things like Civil Rights and an end to the Vietnam War by encouraging progressives to organize, become delegates and get their agenda elected. Yeah, real scary. hahaha

[woodenmajor]

these verminous alinsky radicals intend to DESTROY our republic and replace it with another bolshevik totalitarian police state .they do not represent just another political point of view ,they represent an intentional overthrow of our constitution ,our bill of rights and our national identity .they hate America and they hate americans .they are then ,by definition ,TRAITORS and should be regarded as such .

[jeditenihongo]

James Madison had said it best “I believe there are more instances of the abridgment of the freedom of the people by gradual and silent encroachments of those in power than by violent and sudden usurpations.”

[finnandcork]

what a crock!Im a Repub but the current revisionism of the neo cons, no, these are dumbasses....Hitler was a socialist?

[MrFreeLibertarian]

Obama is going to lose in 2012 in a LANDSLIDE! Then republicans have one last chance to prove that they are different than the democrats, and one way to ensure that is to NOT vote for Mitt Romney. Herman Cain is the only viable conservative left in the race. If he wins the nomination then we're back on track. The icing on the cake would be Michelle Bachmann for VP. She'll stamp out any vestiges of Obamacare not eliminated by the Supreme Court and that is job #1 in 2012.

[NMOutdoorsman]

TEOTWAWKI is coming. Another 5,000 rounds of 7.62 x 39 for me, please.

[PtAltmVansanTarr]

I definitely think u are on to something here man-he's not a Marxist though,explain to me why he's a Marxist

[PtAltmVansanTarr]

Sounds about right,but Obama is a radical right wing neoliberal

[pointdan]

Obama the Marxist - he must be defeated in 2012.

Thank you Mr Levin !

[MEpianist]

@pointdan Obama isn't a Marxist, he's a right-wing neoliberal.

[Clefty09]

@GnomesAmok - You can't be a Marxist and be a great American.

[odat83]

Levin makes a living pandering to guilt ridden silver spooners who want to pretend that they earned the luck they were born into through twisted and ultimately fake political ideology and disenfranchised racist whites that want to pretend they'll be rich some day under the current system. What has he ever contributed to our society aside from vindicating sick people who sublimate deep-seated neuroses into their insane and baseless political views? By my estimation, nothing. Bottom Feeder alert!

[dogbishop]

@odat83 You got it wrong. Most of his audience are not silver spooners, they are middle class hard working men and women, who understand that if neither a person, nor a country, can live on borrowed credit forever. They want a nation that is both militarily and economic, filled with decent people with decent, and be secure in the knowledge that they are passing that along to their kids and grandkids. Your analysis of Americans is sick and pathological, and puts a mirror to your own neuroses.

[myvwsRrusty]

@odat83 Hey dummy why don't you learn something about the man instead of running your cork soaker? Clueless turd smoker, GET A CLUE!!!

[nkdmansam]

another radical who changed his world.... Jesus

[AroundSun]

Liberal is not what liberals are. There is nothing liberating about being a liberal If you are calling for greater control of our lives by the government, that's the opposite of liberation. The modern day liberal has nothing in common with the Jeffersonian concept of liberal and liberty. So if we have people who call themselves liberals, who are subscribing to an ideology that is the opposite of the spirit of our founding documents, then they are on the wrong, and yes, bad side of things.

[doctortobe387]

'through humor much is accepted that would be rejected if presented seriously' made me think of obama's state of the union speech where obama talked about tsa groping and new security measures. honestly obama follows olinsky methods to a t, which makes him predictable and every move he makes understandable. fortunately, these 'rules' are probably not at perfectly effective as olinsky believed they were. people, and therefore often the products of people, are flawed.

[severedheadkisskiss]

allah is Satan, the god of liberalism

[daledor]

It is not what a person says that defines them but what they do. Obama is a masterful chameleon that gives people the appearance of one thing while doing what will pull down our freedom and an opportunity to prosper.

My God is not government!!!

Will America recover the socialist dominated government that has slowly (until Obama) crept to control every aspect of our lives - yes, trust God and go forward. Americans rule the economy and the Big Government/FedReserve interferes! Watch and pray!

[baddogonline]

The evil communists have been exposed! Now, to reverse all that has been done to destroy our grand experiment in freedom.

[afterdavit]

On another level of communication, humour is essential~for through humour, much is accepted that would have been rejected if presented seriously...Saul Alinsky...I think anyone saying stuff like this is a good thing...

[waketheherd]

Obama doesn't follow Alinsky anymore than Hitler followed Jesus. That's propaganda from the corporate media establishment to keep conservatives and liberals on their respective political plantations. Obama's a bootlicking Wall Street whore, just like the Bushes, Clintons and Reagan before him. Why don't you brainwashed partisan dipsticks take the time to read the 200 page "Rules for Radicals" and stop living through snake oil peddling pundits. Alinsky would despise Obama if he were alive today.

[kleenex13]

Our country was founded by traitors, people who disrupted the status quo. Don't talk shit about this book unless you've read it. Read what Alinsky says about revolutionaries and how they then become the establishment and fight to maintain the status quo. God forbid the country should be run by the people who build and maintain, blue collar workers. I'm not an Obama man, but don't listen to this asshole who is fearful of any change that disrupts the status quo. And yes Mark, i've read your book.

[Corporations8MyBaby]

I wish Obama was an Alinsky type. I'm ready for a whole lot of us to take on Alinsky's rules ... to defeat the Koch Brothers... and their radical destruction of our republic. I think many jobless educated young are getting ready to stand up to corporate elites.

[nrgetick]

@elKavernikola .........Go fuck yourself uncle Tomás

[wandasoful]

Brilliantly said by 'the great one' who is more than qualified as a constitutional lawyer to lecture on Saul Alinsky, Obama's mentor and Rules For Radicals, which Hillary Clinton chose for her doctoral dissertation. Everyone should view, listen and digest before voting.

[Kane88andToews19]

we should have seen this coming

[1chichimec1]

Newsworth won't ever agree with Alinsky, because he is Rich Republican who wants poor unemployed American Middle class to remain dumb-down stupid non-voters! Is it wrong to disagree? Vote, Vote Vote!! or just do as you're told by the Military Industrial Complex!

[ednorandrewrowe]

A quick primer, in 3 parts, on Obama's mentor, for those who don't have time to read the yellowed old Vietnam era book...And who knows, I may be too busy myself. Quotes directly from book at length, with little narration.

[SuperGuitarman69]

TEA PARTY, LIBERTARIANS, AND CONSERVATIVES. Please help me out. Go to the youtube video Tea Party and The Three Ring Circus. I'm alone debating liberals please help

[AJB46GAP]

Our Nation has fed the world and Capitalism has lifted more people out of poverty around the world than any other system in the world (historically). Liberals are the self centered opposite of the American Ideology, Intellectual Elite of ruling class thugs and liars!

[SuperGuitarman69]

Conservatives are for the rich LIberals are for the poor! YOu've heard this many many times. It's sort of true. The distinction is this. Conservatives are for the freedom for any American to become rich or richer. Liberals are for the rich to become less rich and the poor to become poorer. Why? Simple really. As long as the poor remain poor or become poorer and are dependant on government they maintain power.

[Freewayjim]

Keep in mind that the "Liberal Elite" are among the richest people in the country. It's all about control.

[MorrisBrown94]

Capitalism will never work, unless people are willing to except the opposite of each spectrum. Rich and Poor. Simple as that coming from a non political intelligent HUMAN BEING.

[superfly72]

But Capitalism is the only system that allows poor to acheive wealth. True Capitalism is the only system that does work. it allows EVERYONE to thrive - RICH and POOR. From one Human being to another!

[cathrasher1974]

Capitalism does work . And it always has worked.

[Downfacingdog]

Thanks Mark!

[doctorkozma]

Do we really need a misguided child to tell us what Mr. Obamma has learned in his 46 years on the planet. I am starting to realize that the USA is no longer a tolerant or educated society. They learn from misguided adults and slanted broadcasts from their favorite media. Indepedant annaysis has been abandoned to the talking point and framed statements by unobjective media stars who have no aliegance to truth

[Downfacingdog]

Go commit suicide, you pussy!!!

[lokinmyso]

do they realize their are always the patriots and, and volunteers..i never herd of radicals from somewhere before, the what their means are sounds very familiar

[godandtheusa]

I need to pick up a used book. Job wanted his enemy to have written a book well here is one now.

[HippiesAreNazis]

Liberals are Satanic Nazi vampires for Islam.

[Dpain1987]

what i cant understand is why liberals think they are the revolution. Do they not understand that america is the revolution we are the opposite of the rest of the socialistic world. why do young people all think that being a liberal and pro socialism is Cool or even Makes Sense. heres what i want liberals to realize america and capitalism are the only beckons of hope in this world. don't believe me look whats happening to china who is adopting capitalism and freedom. need i say more.

[Proud2BeAnInfidel]

youre right my friend. why cant they see, the youndg ones at least, that think theyre col and rebellious, that liberalism is the status quo. and you can have all the piercings, tattoos, hair colors you want, but if you are liberal as defined by obama and the media then you are just a sheep to slaughter.

[lokinmyso]

they want to know what america knows..the american government solved the bible of god.. god is earth. (an alian)we r 10% of god and they want to enslave america, so they can become god. its simple actually.

[MrKickaliberal]

I think Liberals think that people have been defecting to Russia for the last 50 years. I dont see Mexicans rowing their boats to Cuba? They're climbing our fence.

[afterdavit]

@MrKickaliberal Mate, on my opinion of your ideology:you can't polish a turd...

[CaseRed0605]

Why is Levin yelling into the microphone? I don't think that makes his point any better.

[ZzzINSIGHTzzZ]

yeah it does

[dtpac]

He yells because unlike the kenyan president, he's not tied to a teleprompter

[CraigKramer]

Excellent analysis. Thanks for posting.

If you guys want some similarly great analysis on Obama's radical ideology, search for Webster Tarpley on youtube or google video.

[FreedomLives1776]

PATRIOTS RULE!!!!!

[insanezenmistress]

Solomon was right! " He who increases knowledge, increases sorrow." I felt helpless before, Mr. Levin, but now i am educated and helpless. Durign this vid my mind would osillate between " good book, we could use this to correct ourselves" to "bad evil book, obama's blue print. it is already in use against us." But in my knowing this, perhaps there is "hope" people will become cognisent of where we are. Maybe we can become Autotarian as opposed to Athoritarian. That would be a nice change.

[Fresh7Breath]

Adam Smith of England preached if people were poor, they did not deserve to live. To be a poor person was a sin. Check it out. All of you dumb people that believe the rethoric of this hypocrite, Levin; go and check out his family tree. Would we find all wealthy people who hate the poor just because they are fatherless and without means in this cold cruel world. Go and feed the poor Mr. Levin. Your too fat. Stop eating all of the food that the poor could have a share of.

[BerPC96]

Anyone can take things out of contet but if you want a better angle on it, read Max Weber, The Protestant Ethic and the Spirit of Capitalism. In that you will find out why a Christain man like Adam Smith would say that. Ultimately, you seem to have a theme in general of what you think things around you are and what is and is not. Peace

[pandabead]

your a moron.  The most wealthiest man George Sorros is the man who is the major campaign and grass roots financier of Obama. All the powerful class own the democrats. Al Gore 100 millionaire Obama 4 million Tom Daschle millions Clintons 100 millions George Soros billionaire Martha Stewart billionaire Emit CEO GE millionaire Eisner LEWIS All powerful wealthy. all democrats! These all have given very little to charity!!!

[FlavorRed]

And some, like Daschle, fail to pay their taxes. The taxes they like to raise on everybody.

[gatewaysolo96]

Turbo Tax Cheat Tim Geitner

[Fresh7Breath]

are you a cousin to Adam Smith of London, England? if you don't know who Adam Smith was, you need to google him. What a devil to the poor and helpless. Remember White Slavery. It was not that long ago........Ask Levin who pays him to preach and how much he makes??????????? By way of deception, middle class war on the poor.

[Stratslayer]

@Fresh7breath : Levin's show is ONLY maintained by the monies paid by the show's advertisers. If Levin wasn't attracting millions and millions of loyal listeners ( it is), then Levin wouldn't have a radio show. The "good" thing about levin is that he is CORRECT and the ignorant masses NEED to hear a CORRECT message at this time.BTW, the only "party" still enslaving blacks in America is the DEMOCRAT Party (the Marxists) There is nothing "fresh" or even SANE and intelligent about Marxism.

[HippiesAreNazis]

Obama is Hitler

Rahm Emanuel is Hitler.

Eric Holder is Hitler.

Hollywood is Nazi headquarters.

[opchidexio]

About "polution." Do you realize that we are bombarded with subtle (sublininal) advertising all day long about the need to clean up the dirty air and to cut carbon emissions? Yet, look out the WINDOW! Where is this "polution"? Where is the proof that we are melting the ice caps?

Face it. Environmentalism is merely a fad, a cult, a mantra. It is b.s. And Obama is one of them. He wants to put the coal industry out of business. He says we can not drill for oil...

[4QQ1Q2Q3Q4Q]

Obama's the Antichrist. He's a Satanist and so is everyone around him. All his pals claim to be gods. And they all consider him to be the messiah. They want a global socialist government and want all the people on earth all to think that they can all become gods. They are Hitler and the Nazis and they are going global. And B.O. is their stinky messiah.I say this now, after the election. So you can't say I'm just trying to win the election for my side and that's the only reason why i'm saying it.

[4QQ1Q2Q3Q4Q]

You can't trust politicians and you can't ever trust LIBERALS or LIBERAL leaning politicians. Your life depends on knowing this, no matter who you are.

[pandabead]

These people in obama's camp are not liberals they were using the democratic party to gain power. they are progressives. read the platform of progressives. they are communists.

[peacemetta]

AS I READ this page of comments many are missing the point.

THE POINT of Saul Alinsky is just one word: The CHANGE in WHO IS HOLDING POWER. Usurping the power from the POWER-THAT-BE and putting the power on the POWER-TO-BE.

Saul's strategies and tactics are not considering the other elements such as moral ideology, political ideology, religious ideology, social ideology, anthropology, humanism, communism, socialism and whatever -ism, -logy.

Saul is a MERCENARY fro the under-dogs.

[peacemetta]

SAUL is not concerned about the CONDUCT after-the-fact of GAINING POWER and HOLDING on the POWER.

Saul is a teacher for anyone who wants to REBEL, USURP, REVOLT, OVERTHROW, CHANGE, GRAB,..... with a finesse which is more 'civilized' than taking up armaments in the process of CHANGE.

Saul teaches the rebels to use rhetoric, words, wax lyricals, and in other words the power of the gab.

Saul is a mercenary for anyone who wants to play the POWER GAME.

[peacemetta]

Saul teaches that there is a mesmerising GAME more interesting and intoxicating than any other game in the world.

The GAME of overthrowing the POWER-that-be. A game which has rules. Rules that Saul is teaching.

Saul is teaching the activists how to TURN THE TABLES on the opponent.

Losers will become winners. Winners will later become losers. This GAME is UNENDING.

Saul is INTOXICATING the masses.

POWER-HOLDING is just a game. At another time, the losers can become winners.

[Stratslayer]

No game. "Game" is not the correct word. The correct word would be "cycle". The radical leftists are not playing a "game" They are willing to KILL to gain power. Conservatives also do not view the cycle as a "game". I agree with most of what you said., just making a correction on the term "game".

[opchidexio]

"stinky messiah" lol : P

[Newzworth]

I would respond but Im not sure who you are for or against, Sheep?

[xscdnm]

This is funny. Far right wingnuts developing conspiracy theories like they usually accuse left wingnuts of doing.

The only audience that will find this video even remotely pertinent are the few people who are already inclined to think this way. So it's "preaching to the converted." Interesting though.

[Newzworth]

right. by citing a satanical Marxist whose words permeate Obama's every speech, is somehow a conspiracy Theory.

Are you disagreeing that the comparison is invalid? Are you blinded by your own love for Obama that if this were 100% true, you still would denounce it?

[xscdnm]

@Newzworth I'm saying that "the Alinsky connection" was merely dreamed up by Fox News and conservative radio talk show hosts. Most liberals had never even heard of Alinsky until it became a hot topic among conservatives. The human mind is able to make all kinds of associations and draw all kinds of meaning from virtually any set of data, and this is an example of that.

[GnomesAmok]

@Newzworth

If it were 100% true that Obama were influenced at all by this man, there would be nothing wrong with that. The fact that you call him "satanical" is certainly indicitative of conspiracy. He was a great man, and a great American, as you can tell from what Levin read here.

[sheepdogmark]

Then again, when you here the word "community organizing", and one who claims to be THE "community organizer" and has it on his resume. It's very interesting to trace the root of the word and find out that the word comes from a person Obama has learned from, Saul Alinsky. Next, one reads Alinksky's book, "Rules for Radicles" and finds the blueprint for Barack Obama's candidacy.

I guess I'm a nut ... but, I have not swallowed that pill you have.

[buttheadx9]

@xscdnm

haha yeah your tactics don't work! you've been busted

[xscdnm]

@buttheadx9 You're jumping the gun there a little, Skippy, but thanks for the interesting display of ignorant glee.

[Newzworth]

No problem. 1 more coming soon!

[casas4]

Thanks for posting these. I was going to do this if someone else didn't.

[cool8man]

I heard this as well. The part where Levin reads from the book and then plays the audio of Michelle Obama is scary. She's speaking the words of Alinsky and attributing these words to her husband. Then he plays that speech that Barack gave to those college students where he promotes the tenets of communism & giving up the selfish pursuit of the individual for the pursuit of the commonwealth. Alinsky dedicated the book to Lucifer, the original radical who was so successful he got his own kingdom.

[amsterdam78]

sounds like a good book to me

[Newzworth]

2 More coming as soon as I get get them cut and rendered for youtube size

[thunderstruck665]

The Great One hits the nail on the head yet again!
