I couldn't finish the video. It was too depressing. What totally disgusted me was that episode #2 appeared to be taking place in a school. Could that have been a public school? At that point, I just shut the video off.

Oh Great Leader, we will march in solidarity in the Great Parade.

Well, it does seem that the rats have followed him . . .

I too couldn't stomach any more than half of this nauseating video of little kids being exploited by their socialist parents and, presumably, teacher.

Someone wiser than I said "Every disaster is a change too".

Sure applies to the Obamamessiah...

Jeez, now THAT was scary! Too much like those kids
in North Korea praising their Great Leader. Or maybe the Komsomol, circa 1959.

This disturbing video reminds one of school children being forced to sing about their messianic leaders like Mao, Pol Pot, Mussolini, Castro...etc

Now who are the real fascists peddling a cult of personality?

Is Obama on any Friday soon plan to change
Joe Biden to new VP?

only change he may need to?

You owe me for the lunch I just threw up.

I hope the kids with Republican parents stayed home that day.

Spread freedom? I wouldn't listen to these kids they apparently know nothing about politics...

Yes I hate optimism, and looking forward to a better future too. If only these stupid people would embrace fear and a message of "more of the same". I can't understand why anyone especially children would embrace a positive message and hope for a better tommorow. Did you see Obama during the debate, treating McCain with respect and trying to stay on a positive note as McCain talked down to him.( what a loser) Focusing on toipcs which try and divide the american people and instill them with fear are the keys to a republican win.

The video drives home the point that the Obama campaign has actually morphed into a “religious” movement. His fervent supporters have attributed to him the status of a savior who will deliver solutions to all problems. So much so that they are willing to inculcate uncritical devotion to him among their children and exploit their children for the benefit of his ascendance to power.

And, they don’t even realize they have fallen into a cult.

"Focusing on toipcs which try and divide the american people and instill them with fear are the keys to a republican win."

I thought Obama was considered the stronger candidate on the impending eco-geddon. Now I'm confused.

I really feel sorry for those kids. Pure indoctrination. The Obama Youth Movement. Liberal Fascism at its best. Get 'em while they're young.

Ohhh... right I forgot that John McCain is a sexist, philandering man who was involved in the 1st big Financial disaster in the S&L crisis with the Keating Five and lo and behold look who is still around and part of another great mess. Oh.. right his current campaign manager was only receiving a ton of cash monthly from Fannie and Freddie to help their own cause. What a liar. McCain says he is against lobbyists but has them in has back pocket and according to many news reports was bedding another. He's a real maverick. A frickin loose cannon who will do whatever he wants.

The Obama comparisons to Communists and others is no different than a Liberal candidate calling the Conservatives a bunch of Nazi's.

Real far-reaching stuff from these incredibly "righteous" right-wing nutters.

At least I can be considered relatively neutral

You wonder why it is hard to find stuff about Stephen Harper. It's because he is a good man. Hard to find dirt on a good man. The same thing with Obama, another good man.

The MSM is concentrating on Sarah Palin because she is the perhaps the politically dumbest and most unqualified politician to take center stage and nobody in their "right" or "left" mind should allow this idiot into the White House.

The UK food ration and the NY Times jet setting article have absolutely nothing to do with the blog article. It reinforces nothing. It's like grabbing for a straw while drowning in a river instead of grabbing a log. Both the right and left sides of the political spectrum have talked about "reasonable" greening technologies in the USA. The left in Canada are not reasonable.

The whole blog article smacks of the "Hidden Agenda" that Liberals accuse the Conservatives of planning.

As for the Democrats having the ability to pass the bailout; it all comes down to individuality. Some people accept the plan as it. Some want more.
It was the same of both sides politically but a higher percentage voting against were Republicans.
They hate the idea they are government in power and responsible for the mess and any vote for a bailout is admitting responsiblity.

The whole Liberal party was branded corrupt during the previous election in Canada because of the brown paper bag scandal. It sticks.

Nothing really new with this. Here is a clip containing a school class singing praise to a political leader. There is a line about "a brave new world" - sounds like change to me. Skip ahead to 7:35 in the video.

K stricker

I don't recall Obama saying the world will end if McCain is elected - in fact he compliments him and treats him with respect at all times from what I've seen. Where as take a look at how Obama is treated - somehow people are to believe that Obama will turn the US into a Soviet Union or North Korean gulag, that's also a muslim theocracy and more idiotic ridiculous fearmongering suggestions. With all the serious problems occuring in the great USA - it's unfortunate both canidates can't honestly debate the real problems with mutual respect and let the best candidate win. powerful interest don't want this to happen - don't you ever wonder why?

Shades of the hitler youth movement, scary shite.

Obamessiah is just another anti-christ, or maybe the anti-christ. Feel real fear for my birthplace.

Don't forget what we had in Canada. Singing O'Canada before classes started. Singing Christmas carols before they became offensive to some small minorities and yes even prayers if you were in a religious school.

Yet, if some teachers who are for a particular candidate teach children a song of praise; it gets chastised. I hope the same people that are teaching these children a song will also get them to sing "God Bless America".

We should bring back "O Canada" in our schools.

Dolly stole my thunder. Obama Youth should hereafter be called the Blueshirts. I hope they don't have mandatory footwear.

Although it will be terrible for America, I almost wish that he wins.

The gap between his ability to inspire hope and the results this wanna-be socialist will deliver will be a stunning reality check for the "Progressives"

But they will have Bush to blame so they won't learn anything anyway, just dig their hole deeper and deeper.

Hitler's modern day Liberal fascists indoctrinating new brown shirts, Obama's green shirts.

This is off topic, but I had to post it anyway.
Today Bob Fife, on CTV, read an e-mail from the Liberal campaign office asking for money for for the depleted Liberal bank. He noted it was the last day to donate.
I wonder if he'd do the same if the Harper campaign ran out of funds.
Media bias? Nah, can't happen.

The Hitler Youth had better choreography and more sincerity. These kids look like they were just sloughing through another one of their parents Earth Day concerts.

What a disgusting shame to be using school children for partisan politics.
Was this school sponsored by Oprah?

The funny thing about these kids is that in about in the next 10-20 years or so, they'll be on ""blogs"" and the like at each others throats like the rest of the USA is right now!

But for now, bless them, they're just kids.

The video I had posted a link to at 3:04 contains footage from Germany....

This is the result of two generations of 'liberalism', we have paved the road for 'national socialism'. If this rings a bell think of the Hitler Youth. We have parents too afraid to speak out for fear of being branded "racists" and we have the third generation being 'brainwashed' in state sanctioned 'liberal' educational institutions. The next step is to get the children into a pre-school 'care' centres where the 'education' can begin earlier. And the best part is we have parents who are sock puppets who can't see where the problem is and think the dems and libs are going to save them. I lament for all of the Allied servicemen that sacrificed everything for the freedoms that are being slowly eroded away in the West by the charlatans the MSM have elevated to the position of 'saviour'. Layton, Dion, Rae, Ignatief, May, in Canada and Obama in America are selling a repackaged program of "Hope and Change" that they say will fix all of our problems and the electorate seem to be buying it. We, as a society in the West, stopped teaching about the last national socialist government that was led by a 'saviour', you might remeber him if you're over fifty, under his governance his promises evaporated into a world war. The irony of this was he left an ironic epitaph, that being, "Work Shall Set You Free".

Is there nothing that Obama can't do?

"Can't" or won't.

Ah, the smell of freshly mowed "Astroturf". Great production values, great sound, kids really had great vocal synch.

"Yet, if some teachers who are for a particular candidate teach children a song of praise; it gets chastised. I hope the same people that are teaching these children a song will also get them to sing "God Bless America".
We should bring back "O Canada" in our schools."

I don't send my child to school for political indoctrination.

There's also a difference between the national anthem and a song of praise for a specific presidential candidate.

Well, Kim Il Sung state, here we come.

When you are 'Dear Leader' you can do anything.

Definitely cultish behaviour...and they are oblivious.Scary.

You are so correct Chairman Kaga. The President is just a paid public servant, with a four to eight year mandate. Worshiping a 'I wanna be the President' man is creepy and stupid. What are the parents in that video thinking? If the Big 0 had already proved himself by being a President who accomplished extraordinary things during his mandate (like George Washington or Thomas Jefferson), children could honor him with a song or a statue; after the fact.

In my opinion, some of those kids looked nervous and non too happy about the bouncing teacher and the fanatical 'song'.

Children singing are scary. The nut factor at work.

literally forming young minds in this manner is as criminal an enterprise as the indoctrination of children to accept homosexuality as a mere choice.....

it's obvious young minds should have as few preconceived notions as possible regarding the heavier responsibilities and choices available in society...let them make their own mistakes when they reach their majority....straightjacketing and shortchanging their thinking at this stage of development is not what the early years of education are meant to do...

John West at September 30, 2008 5:01 PM NEEDS TO BE DELETED TOO Kate.

"Jim Jones was a community organizer"

Obama wrapped up the all-important foreign non-voting demographic in Berlin.

Once he gets the non-voting kiddie demographic on side, how can he lose?

So I do hope this YouTube video is being stored for use later should he win. It'll be handy to punctuate the doubtless disappointments to follow as his administration has to come to grips with the real world.

And I actually don't say this simply to beat up on the senator; it's just that his supporters are creating mythic expectations he simply won't be able to meet.

Indeed, he has already failed them and they don't even realize it: neither he nor anyone else in Congress (including McCain) seems to have the slightest clue about the current financial mess.

Not auspicious by any measure.

[deleted. You've been banned. - ED]

What was said and who the hell is ED?

I believe these may be future stormtroopers. I will be waiting for the broken glass and door busting at 2 am.

Actually, for a perfect comparison, check out this short "Pioneer" video from the USSR.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aBoBc-ifDmk

Pioneer's were like a cross between the Boy Scouts (but more political) and Hitler Youth (but not so militant).

The first rule of communism is to replace religion that focuses on a higher (but unseen) power with a personality cult - to essentially make the religion about the leader.

That's why all "gods" from Jesus to Lenin (to now Obama) are always portrayed with children. Gods must be shown as father-figures.

John West:

Anyone stupid enough to suggest that a potential president of the US, or PM of Canada, regardless of his/her political stance, should be taken out by gunfire should not be permitted near the internet. And frankly, possibly prosecuted because what you posted is close, if not over the line, of criminality.

Kate: I agree with Me No Dhimmi...delete the 5:01 post as well. There is no place for this type of garbage on your excellent blog.

Thanks Bruce. I did miss that one.

And by the way - for general information purposes here - I will and have turned over the information on commentors issuing threats to law enforcement in the past, and will not hestitate to do so in the future.

A warning about the link I referenced to the Pioneer video that Kate just added to the post:

My wife (who is Russian) says that the subtitles past the first little girl speaking are not at all what is represented on the screen. The lyrics go more like:

"We, the children, are proud of our sunny countryside, cities, deer fields (lands, and forests).

"We love the motherland (actually fatherland)..."

But, the spirit of the Pioneers is still the same. They worshipped Lenin and wore little buttons with a childhood photo of Lenin on them.

I'm cross posting a comment that I made at the PM site:

It fits with his fascist Truth Squads that are in place in various cities monitoring the landscape and ready to muzzle any soiling of the Obama story by the opposition. They’ve tried to lean on tv stations too.

The really sad thing is that this dangerous little nitwit and his soft gloved brownshirts, well at the beginning until they can unleash the DOJ on any opposition, are probably going to win.

There is something sad and sick about parents that politicize their children. No wonder that critical thinking skills are in decline. Obviously in those homes the free exchange of ideas and debate are missing.

God bless our country. Either we morph into a very different country or there is a huge backlash to this when people get their heads out of the sand at some point in the Obama administration. It’s all so depressing.

The Fox News blog on this story has over 5,600 comments. The ones I looked through all say its scary or worse.

Creepy. Before I watched the Lenin video, my thoughts of the Obama video were, "Gee, the only thing missing is a Big Brotheresque photo of the Obamessiah hanging on the wall behind the children."
Then, watching the old Lenin video, and the big mug of Lenin hanging behind them.

Both videos equally disturbing, in any event. I would never use my child as a political prop, and it's disgusting to me that these children are being used in such a way. Shame on their parents.

First he backstabs all his running mates for the position of Senator , including going after his mentor to run unopposed. Of course using lawyers. Then the Palin dirt drop of 25 lawyers in Alaska by Obama. Keeping with the theme he now has truth squads including public officials with police “enforcing” the TRUTH of Obama messiah. This guy is a Third world thug.

Than we have the children sing as unto the chosen one. Fact is there was nothing different in the soviet vid than Obama’s, except the passage of time, language & location. God save America from this would be tyrant. Because that’s exactly what he will be if given the chance. This guy makes Taliban Jack look like an evil dwarf by comparison.
Obama will be a Mugabe or worse.

I do believe if Obama is elected we might see a culture revolution in USA. Just imagine if Obama got in for the Dems and Dion for the Liberals up here. Now that's scary.

You are right Kate, there is no need for that kind of "John West" crap on your site.

If they were singing about Christ they'd probably be suspended.

Not so with the super-saviour Obama.

counter video posted:
http://www.no-libs.com/index.php/MyBlog/The-Enemy-Within/Kids-for-Obama.html

The first propaganda clip lacks the finesse of the second.
Remember the communist propaganda learned from the masters of propaganda, the Nacional (sic) Socialists.

This is nauseating. I gave up 3.5 minutes in. Obama is a narcissist who can't get enough narcissistic supply.

It's blasphemy. Not only shades of Lenin, but of ancient Rome and Egypt. Worshiping an imperfect man. Isn't that what the Jews rejected? Why we are supposed to love God with all our heart and mind above all others?

And it debuts on Rosh Hashana too. I'm not sure it's a coincidence.

Yes, the video is creepy.
Even more creepy is that the people who filmed it, edited it, produced it, okayed it and published it did _not_ see it as creepy.
((Shudder))

Did I hear it wrong, or was there a lyric that went, "Sing together, hold each Frenchman's hand" at 1:10?

I think he's in cahoots with Dion.

Video Made Private!

I can't see the video either. Did they pull it? woo hoo that'll make for good blogging: "creepy video only only accessible to true believers".

It's still here, for now:

http://video.aol.com/video-detail/sing-for-change-obama/748377972/?icid=VIDLRVGOV01

Did NO ONE make a copy of this video? I certainly wish I had but now it's too late. Surely someone has it.

Jan is correct; it still is there.

http://video.aol.com/video-detail/sing-for-change-obama/748377972/?icid=VIDLRVGOV01

In doctrination of children ios a vile tactic employed by the worst totalitarian regimes in history.

Just how is Obama going to change the world?

Is he going to make it tetrahedral?
