From Democracy to Despotism

[highnmighte1]

THIS IS SUCH A GREAT VIDEO!!! Bush began it an Obama is trying to put in full effect....

[triflind]

now Bush is Obama, same shit different pile. Narrator sounds like William burroughs.

[macgeek2004]

@boobooboogoo

Why? What's Obama done that's even ROMOTELY worthy of GWB's kind of shame?

[Madfoot713]

@macgeek2004 Assassinations, prosecuting whistleblowers, torture, started a war,worsened the deficit, etc. Don't be an idiot, nothing has changed.

[boobooboogoo]

Nice video but it should be revised with alternating pictures of obama as well.

[xlightwavex]

ya obama how funny if you hadnt been brainwashed on tv to ignore ron paul you'd see this is what he was talking about the entire time

they'll kill him for sure if we put him in office anyways

maybe its better he was blacklisted and marginalized

[Auggie56]

Better re tool this video. Obama is the evil one you seek.

[Copper4head]

@Auggie56

How is Obama evil?

[greyguard882]

Hm, George Bush is still president ain't he, I guess this video was right. (Sarcasm for idiots out there)

[DronusProductions]

Bush has done more damage to our rights than any other president in history. Do you think its alright for our Gov to spy on us? or to be imprisoned without having a trial?

Don't worry though... Obama is catching up to Bush at a pretty fast rate on constitutional rights shattered.

[virgy45]

Seeing these remarks in May 2009, it is sad, because sp many believed the Bama was for peace and he's a hawk just like the rest! Are we awake yet?

[JimyRoss]

we, as americans will be judged by the actions of this retarded douchebag. i only hope the people who voted for him will be the ones to suffer. unfortunately everyoe will suffer for the actions of this idiot moron. if anyone deserves to die it is george bush

[vi67]

USA is NOT a democracy.

The USA is a Constitutional republic - A constitutional republic is a state where the head of state and other officials are elected as representatives of the people and must govern according to existing constitutional law that limits the government's power over citizens.

"I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands: one Nation, indivisible, With Liberty and Justice for all."

[FlyingBurritoMan]

I wish many other citizens knew this; heck, even President Bush doesn't know this (lol). This just proves the failure of the public school system.

[ScrewFearMe]

and Bush went to a well known school...

[Copper4head]

@vi67

Well said, and the republic calls for a democracy over republican rule, today, no?

Today being August, 2010 & the republic being the majority of the USA American civilians, of course.

[vi67]

@Copper4head I'm not sure if I understand your reply-- democracy over republican rule?.-- Furthermore, a "constitutional republic" is a type of democracy used by the entire country as a whole (i.e., England has a Parliamentary democracy) and has not to be used interchangeably with the term "republican".

[Copper4head]

@vi67

I'm saying that rule by the Republican Political Party is not what the republic of the United States of America wants or needs most, in my opinion. I'm asking you if you think that the majority of the U.S.A.'s residents want / need a democratic government more than a republican government? Regardless of your opinion, I'd like to know why as well.

Also, I realize that the term "republican" is not meant to be interchangeable with the term "constitutional republic".

[Copper4head]

@vi67

Republican rule refers to rule (through the government) by

The Republican Political Party 

[DOCTORDANification]

@vi67 sorry. You are very wrong. In a "Constitutional Republic" there is no "Electoral College". The USA IS A DEMOCRACY. I learned this from Larry Sabato, UVA professor via Fox News. He seems like he knows more than you for some reason lol p.s. the pledge of allegiance is a bad point of reference. You sound silly.

[vi67]

@DOCTORDANification you sound silly. Yes, the USA is a democracy. There are many forms (Representative, Parliamentary, Liberal, CONSTITUTIONAL, Direct, Participatory, Socialist, Anarchist, Iroquois, Sortition, Consensus, Supranational, Cosmopolitan, Non-governmental) of democracy. Let's just agree that we disagree. BTW: My point in my post over 1 year ago (thank-you) was the reference to the PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE terminology specifically mentions allegiance to the republic (period). -- EOT

[DOCTORDANification]

@vi67 so, in just one year, your political views have changed. Hang on to something, you young bastard. The only way you are going to focus, even a year ago, is to create more jobs, which YOU PERSONALLY HAVE THE POWER TO DO but YOU are not, for some racist reason maybe? Hiring someone during a Black man's presidency isn't "caving in". It's CAPITALISM. We know who you are, even a year ago.

[vi67]

@DOCTORDANification I appreciate you noticing my 1 year old post..! The United States is a constitutional republic which is only one form of democracy. And we must hold elected officials accountable to this form of "constitutional republic" democracy as the founding fathers intended and many USA citizens have fought for over the years.--- our fathers, and so many others, sacrificed their liveihood and ultimate price-- their lives. Let's notice slow eroding of constitution by the powerful elite.

[DOCTORDANification]

@vi67 So do you agree or DISagree that George Bush could beat up most of the males in your family................. ***WAITS FOR HISTORY BOOKS***

[MondeTriste1]

MONKEYTYPE, did you make this? If so can I use it in a video I'm making? It's for a art course and I'll credit you for it.

[ben5017]

My question is simple ... When is the US Govt going to see those of us who disagree with the corruption and imperialism will go to torture prisons?

Habeas Corpus can be taken from you at anytime as an American, or withheld from you if a national of any other nation, if the Govt deems you a terrorist. They have made the idea of having ideas that differ from the govt into a form of Terrorism ... Under Bush and company (dems and reps) thought crimes are now against the law!

[ruskimax76]

The sooner, the better....

[ben5017]

Our founders faught for their freedom from imperialism and that was not what the US was founded upon.

The GOP has effectively killed all hopes of 2008 win by their pick of John McCain ... now that's a man who loves war, death, and misery ... what a moron!

[ruskimax76]

No, we picked him, not the GOP. He's not the best out there, but now we must make due with

what we have, as long as we can keep BO and the rest of his commie friends away from the White House. And, come on man, nobody loves war, its just the one our country is in, is a necessary one.

[FallenShi42]

How is the murder of innocent Iragis necessary?

We were led to that war on nothing but lies.

[ben5017]

I was a republican delegate that went to the state caucus. John McCain did not have the support you say and Ron Paul had much more than the GOP would admit to!

As of the day that the GOP blessed McCain as their delegate, I understood that the military industrial base wants more war and Ron Paul (A bringer of Life, not death) would not bring them their wishes as that old time war mongering fool McCain, Therefore bringing me to the conclusion our only hope for peace is OBAMA!

[ben5017]

Lets face it, McCain is not too bright as we saw in the republican debates ... he showed contempt with eyerolls and smart ass comments to Ron Paul and others.

I hope the GOP learns to get back to their roots of real conservativism after OBAMA is elected! What GOP will rise from the ashes of Loss?

The Neocon GOP has condoned actions, laws, corruption that hitler himself would be proud of!

It's time for huge change in the GOP ... America needs to get off it policy of imperialism!

[DronusProductions]

if you think Obama is gonna bring change then your sadly mistaken. : (

[Rikter8]

This is a remix from the original film done in the 40s. It was an educational film back then. Compare that film made in the 40's to now. The Shrub administration was the worst in history hands down, and will drive the US to economic collapse before he leaves office.

Then blame it all on Democrats for not being able to fill the economic crater left behind.

[firejack007]

don't know why you're showing President Bush. He 's the furthest from it. Who is preaching freedom and who is talking regulations? Who wants to tax more people and classify them as rich? Who spends all their time fighting for power instead of taking care of the people's business. Everything said in your video is right down the Democrat agenda. I would put Obama's or Hillary's photo up there.

[gbates31]

if you're talking strictly about the bush administration in relation to power grabbing, most of it took place with republicans in majority of congressional seats. but god help us if democrats get in power.

[firejack007]

If any group of people is causing us to do what George Washington warned about, it's the Democratic Party. In fact their stalwart leader, Thomas Jefferson caused GW and John Adams to fear party politics.

[Sefardisafran]

a fascist mentality totally ignite by alcohol.

nazi' mwntality.

[mobkillaz]

Politicians promise you freedom, more freedom is actualy a doorway that allows slavery,the freedom to enslave others without consequence.

I dont promote politicians and their lies no one pays me to bullshit on youtube. Supporting any politician is a ticket to your own poverty slavery and misery and early death. American politicians are not hated in the world for no reason people. THEY ARE EVIL.

[EvilMonkeyWithaRayGu]

[EvilMonkeyWithaRayGu]

That's pretty idiotic. Good for Bush-bashing, but the message is egregiously unrealistic and anyone who knows a decent bit about politics will laugh.

[saishta]

Shove it you republican douche bag!

[EvilMonkeyWithaRayGu]

I'm an independent, moron. The video has a break in logic; it makes an unrealistic comparison between a branch of a republic government and a altogether form of government. If you want to see despotism in action, why don't you look up FDR and his court stacking, you sheep of a democrat.

[impeachthebastards]

Well done !
