"I pledge" video

[thxleo]

If this has been posted before, I apologize in advance. I just became aware of this video and I can't believe how absurd this is. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=51kAw4OTlA0 Stupid and scary.

I pledge not to take the pledge. Only a fool would serve the Ass Clown. -stray-

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=51kAw4OTlA0 Stupid and scary. What's my pledge? To continue to see through the bullshit and completely ignore brainwashing televisual filth such as that. The ending was utterly chilling.

hmm, you can't win with aspirational adverts...

[Trancelikestate]

yeah, servant to a politician, that's how i wanna be remembered.

[Mike70]

i pledge to make every attempt to hold down my breakfast after watching that. thanks lee, that's creepier than most horror movies i've seen lately. starting to even talk about serving politicians is a tip-toe down the road to tyranny.

[kortick]

Thats too much work for me. Besides, no good deed goes unpunished.

[Mike70]

yeah, servant to a politician, that's how i wanna be remembered. correct me if i'm wrong but isn't that sumbitch supposed to be serving us?

And y'all just noticing this silliness now? Why? And here I'd thought it had been successfully ignored eight months ago. I saw the same video back in February and couldn't begin to name more than three or four people that appear in it. It would be the same circumstance if it were sports, NASCAR, country music stars or talk radio pundits scrambling to cash-in on "patriotism." I blame y'all for making these people the least bit relevant because I sure as hell didn't do it. On the way to self-righteous indignation, be sure to collectively pat yourselves on the back for allowing trash movies, television, music, radio and sports to dominate American culture.

Thats over 6 months old, I have no idea why it has any validity except for something for the right to talk about. Here since were bringing up old stuff. Here, relax in your neo conservative pat, bathe in the warm waters of patriotism and free market dogma. mmm do you feel it? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tj9Dg5tnyHI

I Pledge... to collectively pat myself on the back for allowing trash movies, television, music, radio and sports to dominate American culture.

[DubiousComforts]

Thats over 6 months old, It's nearly 9 months old. I Pledge... to collectively pat myself on the back for allowing trash movies, television, music, radio and sports to dominate American culture. Now CUT THAT OUT!

I'm a liberal and I pledged 8 years of my life to the United States Military in 2006 under a president I hated. I'm glad the concept of doing something rather easy and small like the video suggested is bowing down to liberal mandates! How the right goes from ignoring the huge deficit, the torture, the wars for no reason, domestic spying and blindly loving the conservative Government; Then jumps on the all government is evil bandwagon. Rather flip floppy.

I'm a liberal and I pledged 8 years of my life to the United States Military in 2006 under a president I hated. As an enlisted man, how is the 9/11 GI Bill working out for you?

How the right goes from ignoring the huge deficit, the torture, the wars for no reason, domestic spying and blindly loving the conservative Government. The Bush administration was Conservative? NeoCon at best. It's why so many Conservatives broke ties with the Republican party and became Independents. You claim to be Liberal, but I believe you mean you are a "Progressive". Conservatives are the true Liberals (at least in the true sense of the word). And, us right-wingers don't hate the government. We simply want small government held firmly under the thumb of the people. What is wrong with that? -stray-
