Wow. It is uncanny how relevant that old cartoon still is today. I wonder what would happen if Fox News featured it as a reminder to the people? I bet Glenn Beck, Shawn Hannity, and maybe even O'Reilly would. That would be one more reason for the current administration to villify them along with Fox News.

Are you sure you watched the video? It mocks Big Business and it's talking heads as much as it mocks Unions and Socialists. Looks like you buy one Ism while mocking another.

This video is definitely worth the watch and should be seen by every free American today. This video will get forwarded to everyone I know and hopefully everyone they know so the truth of what freedom really means in America can be seen by all and how they can see we are slowly losing a bit of it everday

Makes me a little less anti american (cause I think we need more freedoms and they wont give it to us) and a little more patriotic

I saw this the other day and was going to start a thread on it, but its already here.

I really liked it. Yeah its propaganda against "ism's" and it clearly defines those ism's right before throwing the bottle and chasing the guy away.

"When anyone preaches disunity, tries to pit one of us against the other. Through class warfare, race hatred or religious intolerance. You know that that person seeks to rob us of our freedom and destroy our very lives."

Apparently Harding college is conservative? I'm not sure.

I saw a post about someone saying they see the guys on Fox as being the snake oil salesman. I remember growing up with people constantly calling Rush all the awful things and even joined in the bashing. Then one day I decided to listen to one of his shows and yes the left totally took his stuff WAY out of context (for that day, with the left on the next day they took the stories they ranted on out of context), bashes on him a lot and has a total hatred for him. Then I started questioning all the clips and other texts that the msm had and sure enough 80% of the ones I looked at were out of context (this was back in '07, I doubt much has changed)

Also I talk to people and we are all nice and friendly, then when politics is brought up and I say I am conservative I get anything but friendliness back on those from the left. I'm either an idiot for my beliefs or I get pitied for not being informed or just straight up hate on.

So this divide and conquer thing is real and effective (from both sides) I do see some peeps on the right have the same reactions above, but its far less prevailent
