But I’ll let you watch and decide….

If we’re on the topic of awesome tea-party-inspired videos, check this one out:

Hardly an anthem. Had a hook of irony but as they said on American Bandstand: “I can’t dance to it, I’d give it a 3.”
Like apple said, this doesn’t really fit for a Tea Party anthem. It’s more like BO’s anthem…
I think “Were Not Gona Take It” by Twisted Sister fits a little better.
Heh… Twisted Sister… 😛
Agree with the comments about the “OMG! Look what iMovie can do and look how many fonts I can use” aspect of this video. Great song, great points, but don’t distract with cheap effects.
For those worried that Vernon and the Living Color band will want this down: think about the song. Notice who’s voices are heard as examples and, more importantly, who’s are not heard? For examples we get in the lyrics, Gandhi, Mussolini, Kennedy, Stalin, for examples in the voice over we get Kennedy and FDR. Just a coincidence? The song is from the mid 80s–why no Reagan? Think about it.
I’ve linked as well…the vail spot.
Great video. I’ve put it up on my site and linked back to you. Thank you.
I too lived and attempted to work in MI…I ended up moving to MD with my wife (she’s gew up in Dearborn Hgts, MI)…and we did well here until Oct 2008. Good luck. I’ll be back to hit your tip jar when I can afford to do so.
Also, I’ve added you to my blogroll so my 30 loyal readers can peruse your site.

Thanks Rich, like I said man, no pressure and thanks for the link! 😉
Great video! Really demonstrates the power of moving pictures. Many, many people will be moved by this video. Spielberg showed me I could love aliens and hate sharks with moving pictures. This video showed me the conspiracy of Mao and Obama; Stalin and Obama, Che and Obama and exactly how easy it is to impress the impressionable based on some of the comments posted herein.
