Yes We Can & john.he.is
This first video "Yes We Can" brings multimedia, music and politics together to entertain and uplift.
This "john.he.is" video made me laugh and cry as I think about the future of our country and that John McCain could be our next President. Just Watch, it gives you chills.
Wow! -Brilliant!!!!!!-

can you say propaganda?

Speaking of propaganda, everyone interested in film making should see Leni Riefenstahl's "Triumph of the Will". This film is credited with creating the powerful perception of Hitler. Rent it on Netflix.

I couldn't agree more, Mark. My sister and I laughed so hard....
We don't need more war. Spread love:)

The hipster slant is always quite interesting. Substance will
prevail in this election (hopefully). The "gospel yodel" of the
60's past isn't for me.

I like you and Becker, but you guys are way off the mark. Nobody wants war, and as far as I'm concerned if you haven't been there, you have no say in the matter. McCain if nothing else will protect us. Obama will get us killed. The Obama fad will pass. My wife and I were/are Mike Huckabee fans, not McCain.

I'm not voting for McCain. I'm not defending him because I believe in him. I'm defending him because as humorous as it might be this is an ignorant video that takes his statements completely out of context.
NO ONE wants more war. But the truth of the matter is that there WILL be other wars. You CAN'T get away from that fact.
And saying that we'll remain in Iraq really isn't saying much. Let's think about all of the places that the US has a military presence: Germany, Korea, Guam, Panama, Cuba, Okinawa... I could go on... but no one says anything about our troops being stationed in the places. This is that kind of presence he's talking about. Its been 63 years since the end of the Nazi regime and we still have troops there. Where's the outrage?

Have you seen these comments by Obama's Pastor Jeremiah Wright?

That second video is hilarious...and scary. While I understand where Ryan is coming from...that those statements are likely taken out of context, I don't think it's a totally fair comparison to our presence in other countries at the moment. There's no outrage about people being in Germany because there currently is no conflict in that country and there likely won't be. Don't get me wrong. Everyone is entitled to their opinion. I'm just saying.
