I suppose the title should be..:
(some) Obama policy haters and (some) fox news viewers summed up in one video,


This is a fantastic video starring an incredibly talented young girl with supporting acting done by Jack Black, that essentially summarizes the way big corporations secretly fund political activism (the role of Jack Black), such as the Tea Party movement (the children, because they are like children), in order to essentially hijack them into, for example, believing disinformation about Obama, and the current administration, in order to meet the corporatist, fascist agenda. (and likewise, corporatist disinformation can be pro-Obama too!)




The Truth

Thanks to recent rulings by the U.S. Supreme Court, there is no longer anything to stop foreign powers, terrorist groups, big corporations or any other people with bad intent from secretly undermining the integrity of our elections by contributing to the Chamber of Commerce and these front groups.

The Nathan Spewman videos joke about the well-organized and lavishly funded mythmaking machinery trying to bend our elections to repeal the new health care law and increase corporate power. The links below give some of the facts:

www.stopspewman.com...


Integral to this disinformation is both Koch Industries, and Fox News.



Koch Industries Shifts on Tea Party

Facing a new round of scrutiny, Koch Industries is refining its position that it has not directly funded the tea party movement, saying that “until recently” the energy giant “had never been approached by a tea party group for funding.”

A new Internet documentary, [Astro]Turf Wars, features a long video clip of Koch Industries owner David Koch at a gathering of the conservative group Americans for Prosperity, boasting of his funding of the group at its inception and applauding as one tea party activist after another stands to talk up his or her efforts. Americans for Prosperity has trained and financed many of those efforts.

blogs.wsj.com...


That's funny because Rachel Maddow also has tape of them denying any involvement with the Tea Party, which means Koch Industries were spreading disinformation like the video.

But but.. BOO socialism.. and..and.. the tea party is a bipartisan group and.. yeah I got nothing. [/sarcasm]

So basically the situation can be summarized as this:

(1): Own large companies and have corporate connections.

(2): Use billions of dollars to support a reckless ignorant religious lower-middle class like the tea-party movement.

(3): Direct political group policy toward your own agenda.

(4): ???

(5): Profit by screwing over everyone, while everyone is tied up in some sort of religious debate.



These are two brothers you can clearly trust with influencing how this country is run.


Fox News is similar:

Glenn Beck is calling on his listeners to donate money to the US Chamber of Commerce. He is literally asking American workers to give their hard-earned wages back to their corporate employers, so their employers can use that money to advocate a public policy agenda that benefits the rich.


"Populist" Glenn Beck wants listeners to donate money to corporate interests

But Glenn Beck is completely serious. He wants you to send your money off to the Pfizers and JPMorgans of the world, as a gift. For Glenn Beck, it isn't enough to have a power structure that favors the corporate elite. He wants you to pay for it, too. That’s what passes for populism these days.

The same people that believe this sort of BS are also the same people who 'scare easily' and are prone to believing rumours. I'm guessing that's the only reason why FOX gets away with its BS.


Study: Fox News viewers are prone to believing rumours

Those who rely on Fox News are more inclined to believe rumours, a study looking at the behavioral patterns of viewers of reports pertaining to the Ground Zero mosque in has concluded.

I may be reading too much into this, but he's playing a Professional Mis-informant in an anti-foxnews hit-piece; mildly hypocritical, liars exist on both sides.


Hilarious and appropriate however was the use of children for this video as it's an accurate representation of the quality of political discourse in this nation.

Jack Black's charlie brown t-shirt and the little girl mis-informant were awesome; but this is still wholly one-sided and biased.

That was absolutely hilarious!!!


But as far as Obama haters go...all you have to do is look at his promises and then look at which ones he has kept and how much CHANGE he has actually done considering all his lip service on change.
I don't know about the socialist crap or fascist crap because i don't follow dumb words like that.
Control is control so I don't need hairsplitting words to add to the confusion.

You can make the argument that any president for the last 70 or so years hasn't been following the consitution, and any president from here on out won't be either.

do you suggest eternal anarchy?

Why is it when the liberal left talks about anybody else---talking about anybody else(politics mostly) the word HATE is always involved if we(conservative right) don't like the agenda of the politician. I don't hate BHO just detest what he wants to do to my country.

Am I not correct in thinking that Hate is a liberal word when it comes to people they don't like.

Just to let you know op, We don't hate Obama, just his politics

ok, lets do that then:

Promises Kept Link

Promises Broken Link

Promises "in the works" Link

Promises Stalled Link


He cannot be held accountable for stalled or in the works stuff (congressional filibustering tends to do that), so, the only actual numbers to view are kept and broken..

Kept: 122
Broken: 22

the rest are on hold and therefore not countable

I am not happy with the 22 broken promises,but I guess on a test of 150, if you got 22 wrong, you still passed with a 85% (a B in school)

I see what you did there...you took it a step further and took the "o" out of the word because it stands for Obama.

Well...you just aren't dedicated euf....that's right...I took out the "N" because it stands for NAZI.

And you call yourself anti-liberal....pffftttt.

Yes, liberals created the word hate...of course they did, that only makes sense.



You personally may not hate Obama, but that doesn't mean nobody does...and because some jacktard hates obama, doesn't mean everyone opposing him does...sweeping statements show only a inability to think individually...

No, I suggest doing what the job states, like following the "god damn piece of paper"..
They do take an oath do they not to Follow the Constitution?

It isn't hard, we all goto work we have to abide but rules of the workplace.. The same thing should apply for who is president..

But then again when someone says constitution people like you say anarchy, why is that? The things Ron Paul was advocating in the last elections consists of anarchy? What is up with that.. Don't twist constitution with anarchy it is a republic rule which we are supposed to be under no democrapcy.. So.. I don't know where you get off saying anarchy..

The way you use the word hate and I are probably two different things. Sweeping statements are for liberals, and I don't have herd mentality.

Sighhhh, liberals always get their arguments from comedy and parody, and then go running with it as if they had something that had some kind of relevance to real life. It doesnt.

Do you see conservatives posting this kind of nonsense as valid arguments? No, that's because conservatives, for all their faults, are at least willing to have a serious debate instead of "Herp Derp, Jon Stewart and Jack Black say republicans are stupid."

I see a pretty shallow, dumb Obama hater video posted above...

As far as the Jack Black video or Jon Stewart... I would consider that more satire... smart comedy used to shine a spotlight on the idiocy out there...

And many conservatives get their information from Fox news. Studies have shown that these viewers are in actuality more gullible than the average population, and studies have also shown that on average conservatives scare more easily than liberals. Liberals get their information from websites such as "Media Matters", "Counterpunch", "politifact", "Washington Wire" et cetera. Some of those are websites that merely analyze facts (e.g. politifact), although yet again they seem to cater to liberals (probably because they deal with facts). Satire and comedy is sometimes included where necessary, but it speaks volumes that a comedy video obliterates people like Glenn Beck. I ask, what's the conservative equivalent to counterpunch? Why do many conservatives believe in homeopathy and other obvious forms of anti-science like AGW denial by idiots like Christopher Monckton?

Personally I think partisan politics are BS. Such little thought it required to formulate some piss-poor argument. All you need to do is find some incriminating evidence, spin it your way and then generalize. It takes about 5 seconds. That's what you did, it's what I did in this post. But if you want to play that game then fine... it's not hard
