Obama's Doublethink Doubletalk (State of the Union Remix)

George Orwell defined doublethink as "the power of holding two contradictory beliefs in one's mind simultaneously, and accepting both of them.

When it comes to war, spending, and more, President Barack Obama's 2010 State of the Union address showed that doublethink is alive and well in Washington, D.C.

Approximately two minutes.

i think it is good that we have this president and here is why....next time around

1. ppl will NOT vote for the color of a skin

2. ppl WILL listen very carefully to what someone has to say and how it is said

3. ppl will NOT fall for lies

4. ppl WILL be way better informed

5. ppl WILL judge by the content of Character

we dont need a smooth talker ,we need someone with solutions,thats what made America great and gets ALL of US back there

@Hoschi0913 "rule of law" - there is NO SUCH THING. Who is deciding what? Individuals (free makret), dictator (totalitarianism) or elite (democracy)? Be more specific. And google "the myth of rule of the law" and you will get what I mean by saying that.

@MaikUniversum

iam not into democracy,that means that the majority rules,if they decide you cant have your home,its getting taken away,iam for the republic,means rule of law,everybody gets "treated" the same,well supposingly so

@Hoschi0913 I hope that people stopped voting at all.. you can not fix a damaged system. Let democracy, the mob rule, die out on its own and start doing business with fellow human being, not a politician. Free market.

@PerpetualHarvest

thats why ppl need to be informed and if there is anything not passing the smell test,as simple and small as it might be,dont vote for this person,regardless of what they say and how much they say what you want to hear,in the end it is our country (it does not belong to the gov't) and we have to live in it and make the best out of our lifes,of course best would be with someone we elect that doesnt screw us over alot,those are hard to find i know,but one for sure is out there

@Hoschi0913 In reality the people who are paying attention will only go up a few more percent. (Ex:drugs were legal, the percentage of users rise 5 to 10 percent0 The real problem is don't think that people wont be easily fooled on the next election and the one after that. Every election since Kennedy has been nothing more than a soap opera feeding on the emotions of the American people. They say EVERYTHING WE want to hear while campaigning. Boss= Special Interest & Banksters

Everyone in America needs to see this. Especially starry-eyed Obama lovers
