There has to be some sort of Godwin-esque rule where espousing your political views as ABSOLUTE TRUTH is auto-lose.

As much as I trust 1NationUnder1God3in1's video and objective analysis given his catalog of other videos entitled "The Invasion of Islam" parts 1 through 5 as well as his recent favorited videos including "Is Obama Poised to Cede US Sovereignty?" "Barack Obama Hitler youth comparison" and "The Great Global Warming Swindle", after having actually read most of this bill (H.R. 3200), I will have to point out that the claims made in this video are almost total ****. You can find most of the framing suggestions made in this video on any given "Tea Party" homepage or conservative blog/radio show/news network. For those of you who choose to, you can find the bill in its entirety here (pdf) free for you to read. It should also be mentioned that there is no final health care bill and that the one this video is telling you to warn your representatives not to vote for already passed in the House months ago.

I think the thing I dislike most about this video though is its mistreatment of Chopin.

I can only hope that the OP who posted this was being sarcastic and posted this video as a joke.

Originally I was really against Obama being president. Not because he could actually change the way we live (because he can't, only Congress and the Senate can make and pass laws), but because its a lot harder to blame a menacing war hero for the problems in government than it is to blame a black guy for something. If McCain were in office I bet more people would turn their eyes to Congress and the Senate for their problems, and of course "Who better to help guide our troops than a man who's actually been though a war?"

Now that I think about it, you're right about that... glad to see there's someone capable of intelligent discussion instead of just saying "OP must've posted this as a joke" or something like that.

Patriotism, by definition, is love of one's country. The United States were founded on principles of freedom, which is not the road it's currently going down.

You know, even ignoring what one might think of Obama, there's a lot of factual inconsistencies in this video, and it was posted by a well-known, lying right-wing nutjob. He even lied abut the Health Care bill, as anyone who actually read it will tell you.

Check out his other videos, most of them are completely slanderous with no actual objective criticism, and he even attacks basic scientific tenets with fierce, unwarranted aggression.
