LIVE FREE OR DIE HARD (Project 12, 8/12) features a series of crafted statements inspired by political commentaries at democraticunderground.com during July and August 2011. Instead of various presidents combining to make an overall commentary (as was the case in the 2007 theatrical release of Live Free or Die Hard), Barack Obama is the sole speaker of the remix. He is made to say the following:

The wealthiest Americans and biggest corporations spent a lot of money on my campaign to protect big Wall Street banks, quick profits, and fat executive bonuses, so business as usual can reign.

I am going to keep on serving special interests, big corporations, and gas companies. And I intend to pretend that it is for the good of the country.

Simply put: we need to extend tax cuts for the most fortunate among us, like corporations that have been making record profits. I'm happy to do it, and that's what we've been doing.

The fact is: this is a "shared sacrifice." We are sacrificing the American people and sharing taxpayers' money amongst the rich.

(Natalie Portman): That's quite enough of that, thank you very much.

We're not done. We need an approach that makes some serious cuts to worthy programs.

If you're a senior citizen -- I've said it before, and I will say it again -- Social Security and Medicare will be eliminated.

If you ask Democrats and Republicans, they say we've got no money, and they send you home. Meanwhile, we are killing innocent civilians around the globe.

Live free, or die hard. Project 12.

Out of some confusion, is this anti-obama or anti-congress, as far as i see congress has been just as helpful with most of what is said here.

[DiranLyons]

@Samealtorn -- Obama sure has wielded that veto pen to thwart our degenerate Congress! The fact is, both Congress and the White House collude in the continual -- and intentional -- downturn of this country. What Bush initiated, Obama has perpetuated.

[altgeldrarities]

That pretty much sums up the changes Barry Soetoro has made so far. He needs to change his name back and leave the USA.

[DiranLyons]

and additionally the Bush admin needs to be charged with their myriad war crimes. I am good with both things taking place. But to quote from a cult classic: "We are men of action...lies do not become us."

[Noreligioninthispub]

The worst of all tyrannies, are those of which that are hidden behind the illusion of good intentions.

[liver9100]

this is epic hhahaha 

[GreatInca]

Social security is too expensive and medicare is nothing but a fraud program. You must game the system or the system games you.

[GreatInca]

They have no intention of eliminating social security. They are just going to freeze it while the FED prints and prints and prints.

[c4p1t4lf34r]
