This video is from What You Ought To Know, and was posted at Coyoteblog. Watch the whole thing:
In a nutshell, the current financial crisis was caused by Republican cronyism and failure to keep the Democrat social engineering policies in check. A ‘bailout’ only exacerbates the problem by encouraging the behaviors that led to the crisis in the first place.
There are several other videos at the site, so I think I’ll check ‘em out.

‘We Have To Be Willing To Be Led’
Filed Under Liberalism | Leave a Comment
I know this is a little late, but it was too important to go undocumented. The day after the inauguration of The One, Communism Now! covered the blind followers that have sprung up in droves to usher Barack Obama to new and dangerous levels of power.
The socialist radio show had a correspondent on the ground in Washington D.C. to get their take on the election of The One and his upcoming administration. From the transcript:
TAMMY BOUDREAUX: Hi. My name is Tammy Boudreaux. I’m from Houston, Texas. I’m a huge supporter of Obama, like many of us here. And he has a huge fan base in Texas, so don’t let that fool you. Yeah, I’m here to celebrate and participate in our future potential of becoming better.
Fan base? Is Obama a politician or Pearl Jam?
OBAMA SUPPORTER 1: Change has to occur, so something’s going to happen. How much, how much happens, we don’t know. But I think he got a pretty good stamp to do quite a few things, running off a change during his march to the White House. So he’ll be able to do some stuff. Will he be able to do everything he promised? No, and I don’t expect him to, either.
What??? I didn’t get it either.
OBAMA SUPPORTER 2: And we’ve got to realize we’ve got to give him patience, you know? Got to give him patience, make sure everything—these issues that we’re dealing with are all major issues, in and of themselves, and we’ve got like five major issues. And it’s going to take five years, four years to even tackle one of these issues, and the main issue right now being the economy. We’ve got to figure out and give patience to him and not put too much expectations on him.
I wonder if these people gave George W. Bush this kind of leniency after inheriting an economy in recession from Slick Willy and a major homeland terrorist attack in his first year?
Basically the above quote means that the Presidency of the most powerful nation on Earth is Obama’s by birthright and he should not be held to any standards or promises made throughout the campaign. But we shouldn’t be surprised. Liberalism is based on the idea that regular people are totally incapable of running their own lives. These talents are only held by a small elite who will dictate their marching orders from a distant capitol. And inevitable failures by statist liberals are simply the result of obstructionist jerks out there that, for some reason, feel the need to make their own decisions. Think I’m getting a little worked up? “Obama Supporter 1″ illustrated my point:
Oh, and the major thing is, he’s just the general, but we’re the army, so he can lead us, but we also have to be willing to be led and be able to go out there and do the hard work also.
Pardon my French, but Fuck That.
I ask my readers, are you “willing to be led”? Is Obama your “general”? Because I don’t know about you, but I am not some mindless drone who needs a dictator telling me what to do. I exist for my family and myself, not some self-serving politician in Washington. And I vote for candidates who will be careful stewards of my tax dollars, preserve my liberty and freedom, and in general represent and serve me. Not the other way around.
Another Obamunist showed what kind of values The One will bring to the White House:
LYND ROBSON: My first name is Lynd, Robson, and I’m from Montana, but I just moved to Washington. And I was part of the ’60s generation, the baby boomers. And, you know, it’s just wonderful to hear this generation and Barack Obama speaking to what we—the values of that time, which have somehow dissipated into the ozone, and he’s brought them back. And it’s just fabulous
Maybe we’ll soon have government sponsored LSD parties out on the South Lawn!
Drone # 4 gave us a peek at what will happen to those who dare defy the view that we are one conglomeration of humanity whose individual units and desires are secondary to the concept of unity:
OBAMA SUPPORTER 4: What I’m hoping is there’s going to be a change that is going to really reform the country. Right now, I think even at the grassroots level, a lot of people have given up or shifted their thinking. And I’m hoping this is the beginning of a shift of thinking that—where communities are going to come together and stop thinking about themselves as individuals and stop thinking that, hey, we’re going to improve life by making it better for our children, so our children can have more, better than we have, but rather, thinking in terms of things in terms of quality of life for entire communities.
Couldn’t have said it better myself. “Stop thinking about themselves as individuals..”. Same tired old Liberal mantra: we’ve been living too good, and now its time to submit to the State and start sacrificing before it’s too late! I’m so glad we’ve now got Change!
CLIFF FRASIER: My names Cliff Frasier, originally from Massachusetts, live in New York City now. And I’m going to the inauguration, because I worked for SEIU during the election, the labor union Service Employees International Union, and we worked a lot on the Obama election. And so, I want to be there. I want to be part of celebrating his victory and with all the other people who helped make this happen. And I just couldn’t imagine sitting in New York and not being here.
Thanks for the input Cliff. Now that Obama is beholden to you and your unionized ilk, maybe he’ll help Blago get that SEIU job he was hoping for.
Idiot #5 offered some intelligent commentary to close the segment:
OBAMA SUPPORTER 5: Obama! Obama! Obama! Obama!
I guess the good folks from How Obama Got Elected, these voters, and Peggy Joseph were not alone. God save the Republic.
