I s this the beginning of Bama's "citizen defence corps" that he is going to fund on par with the US military?
And who will these acolytes take orders from? I can guess only Bama since he "provides everything" for us all.
Obama Freikorps. Young Obama League. Camo Pants Brigade.
Wait until these guys get in your face and reeducate you! The light will finally shine!
This is very scary. I had this on my blog last week. This is the kind of stuff seen with Hitler, Castro and Mao. I hope it's just an anomaly, but more and more of this stuff is showing up on the web, as with the singing children in California. Somehow Obama has touched people in a messianic way that I cannot understand. If you've ever seen the movie They Live, I feel like one of the people with the special sunglasses that enable the wearers to see the aliens. Why other people can't see this, I don't know. I am at a loss for words. I wonder if some germans felt that way in 1932?
You would often hear one hen remark to another, "Under the guidance of our Leader, Comrade Napoleon, I have laid five eggs in six days"; or two cows, enjoying a drink at the pool, would exclaim, "Thanks to the leadership of Comrade Napoleon, how excellent this water tastes!"
t tried to play the video and got a "sorry this video is no longer available". i guess someone doesn't want us to see it~
I had an uncle from Cuba that came here before Castro came to power, but had many family members left behind. He told stories of how children were encouraged to turn their parents in if they disagreed with Fidel. A lot of people disappeared, went to jail, and lost their property and wealth. The lucky ones got to America. I do not think the lesson of the cult of personality has been lost on Obama. Considering that he seems pusillanimous, I don't think it will be something quite like Castro, but much more subtle. He'll definitely pursue a socialist agenda and within that he'll enculturate our next generation to accept what we find unpalatable.
This video was removed from youtube. Does anyone have another copy?
I have something similar: http://the-right-guy.blogspot.com/2008/10/obama-youth-new-hitler-youth.html
Try this one:

Why are these young men not inspired by their parents? Mom & Dad too lasy to do good for their kids?
Why must black youth look towards only black adults to be inspired? Are they being raised to be racist?
What is with the Pro-Military garb, when Obama and Fiberals do not support American Military?
The entire thing is disgusting.
