Obama should be made to watch this...several times.

[Smeski]

That right there is Obama. And this is why we need to get rid of him and his cronies.

a reflection of freedom

I could care less if Obama turned out to be a muslim born in Kenya, as long as he ran this country well and fulfilled at least one of his campaign promises to us it wouldn't matter, but as of right now he has not turned out to be the strong leader we needed to help us out of our current situation so everyone is looking for an excuse to get him out.

socialist society does not condemn social or political freedom, It calls for restrictions on economic freedom in an attempt to make more economic equality. The USA is not a very socially free country compared to other western countries. For example gay marriage is illegal.

BTW this movie is propaganda.

[tadzero1085]

the movie is great, but the person using it is misunderstanding it and has been fooled like the rest of the poeple in this country who listen to all these tv personalities and right wing politicians that obama is trying to hurt the nation though they use the same tatics that this video is completely against. They racist commits, ignrant slander, and religious intolerence to scare people into thinking obama is bad, all muslims are evil,etc. You can disagree with his polices but thats all.

PLEASE NOTE that the rightwing blowhard PHOENIXBORNAGAIN who has featured this video on his channel IS SO MENTALLY WEAK that he feels he must CENSOR CERTAIN THOUGHTS from his channel. That is fine since YouTube provides that capability but it does not say much about someone who CLAIMS they value and cherish the First Amendment, does it? THIS IS PREDICTABLE BEHAVIOR FROM MOST RIGHTWINGERS, as nearly all of them CLAIM to love their country etc. even while they're trying to tear it down!

[aaronshoup]

Wow, what a punch of crap. This is a propaganda film made during the cold war. The Soviet Union was a dictatorship, and dictators have horrible human rights records. All one would have to do is to look at all of the horrible dictators that we have propped up, or put in place after taking out democratically elected leaders to see that! John Sutherlands films were paid for by the oil industry. This is pure propaganda, not in any way truth.

@Smeski I couldn't agree more

[LolTacular01]

I have to agree with DJLSSC. The new world order is most of the problem. democrats and republic are controlled by the same bankers who are about to create one world goverment.

[coldkeyes]

@wwwMERTHcom I agree with ya there. It perfectly does match

[alienoverlord362]

Holy shit they should show this cartoon in every school in america.
