Default Obama Deception

http://sheepsociety.blogspot.com/

I'm looking for positive debate not idiot comments after watching the video... Not your BS and wise cracking from the usual suspects.

12:15 a good one\
59:40
110:52ish
114:00

Looks really interesting. 2 hours is a bit much, but I'll watch it when I have some time.

Calling Obama a 'hoax' and 'agent of Wall Street" are two fairly substantial accusations. Let's see if he can follow through with evidence as opposed to speech clips with erie music dubbed in.

Well if Joe Rogan and Jesse The Body...

Am I a usual suspect?

They fouled up the spelling of the word "intelligence".

Sorry. Ominous music and jump cuts don't do it. Pick a side or don't, but this kind of conspiracy stuff is just corny.

And yes, I only watched the first 5 minutes. That's enough for me. It's a repeat.

Ohhhh Alex Jones, it MUST be true!

In all seriousness the guy sometimes does make some really good points and has done some good research. But he ruins it all by going way over the top, making other stuff up, and completely misrepresenting stuff.

I may give it a watch later, and then I can comment specifically but 2 hrs is too much right now.

no.

Sorry but you're posting a video from a sensationalist and asking for positive debate. You're not getting it.

2 hours is far to long.

I assume the Illuminati will be heavily involved in the creation of a new world order built only to funnel money into the pockets those who 'own' wall street and I wouldn't want to miss that.

Does that cover it or are there more complete Coles notes?

AAAANd the usual suspects arrive....
No, you do not get it. Nor will listen.

So I ask again in good faith to watch in it's entirety or don't. And then post if you have watched in it's entirety. Be a bigger "person" than your acting.

I watched it when it was posted in another thread last week. It just turns into the same attention grabbing Bilderberg blah blah blah Alex Jones MO.

So just because you assume someone hasn't watched it because they don't get sucked in by his crap, doesn't mean they haven't.

Sorry. Alex Jones is an entertainer, not a journalist. It has nothing to do with a bigger "person".

You know what sucks...I actually think Alex Jones has some half decent and plausible ways of thinking sometimes but he always has to push the envelope and he does that in EVERY movie he's made. Its tough to take anything he says serious anymore when its the same ranting and raving movie after movie.

For that reason alone, I could only watch the first few minutes. But the premise didn't seem that convincing...a politician lied on his path to his election?!? Wow that's a shocker. Maybe there was more than that in the movie...but I unfortunately didn't watch the rest.

I have the video. Actually a neat look at stuff you'd probably never think of.

Definitely out there, but sometimes it good to watch these types of things to challenge your typical thought process. That said, I don't really buy any of it.

Well you can't just post something and say "if you won't commit two hours to watching the video I post, you are not allowed to comment on it because I said so".

Do we have a new Chris Lindberg?

Wasn't he spending all of his non-Backlund praising time talking about the secret economic world order or something?

Attention grabbing!!!! Some of it was drier than Calgary's weather in the winter... (Minus this few weeks)

However, whilist you deny the entire message - it seems to me that you deny yourself power to change the system. And by change I mean peaceful change.

I don't even totally disagree with the stuff he says, I just think he's a joke. And yeah, rolling up on a group of protesters and taking the megaphones and going off when he's trying to front as a "journalist" is attention grabbing.

Alex Jones is a joke, and as long as it's someone like him presenting that information, not enough people to actually push change are going to take it seriously.

Yes I can. Can't stop you from posting however....

Can't stop you from helping me move as well! It is about choice. Veiw it and debate don't view it and don't debate. Easy enough.... Don't spend the time don't do the criminal investigatory journalism......

Any way the point to this is then let it go. If you can't spend the time then you can let it go...

I am pretty dim, but I can occasionally spot rich creamery butter when I see it. I don't have to bathe in it for two hours to know what it is.
