Sing for Change!

I was going to link to the "Sing for Change" video, but I guess it's been taken down because it creeped too many people out. If you didn't get a chance to see it, it was a bunch of kids from Venice CA singing the praises of The Lightworker under the direction of a grimacing Stepford-tranced music instructor, with approving adults beaming and others providing accompanying music. Plus it had some major Hollywood backing, which kind of makes the spontaneous grassroots support claim seem...ridiculous.

I wish the YouTube video hadn't been removed though, because there was a comment the teacher Kathy Sawada left there that just really exemplified the mutton-headed emotional mysticism that is the "liberal" Obama supporter--something along the lines of the children should be our leaders because they are innocent and don't know anything.

I also understand that the video also appeared at this link on Obama's website, which means someone there thought it would be a good idea.

Not to worry though. The concept has been done before, and you can get essentially the same experience by clicking here.

UPDATE: Cranky in "Comments tells me they've moved the video to here. And it has the Kathy Swabada quote I was looking for:
You are exactly right that children don't know about political issues, and for me, that's the point, they are our teachers...

Good grief, she's serious.

  1. It's still on Youtube under Kathy Sawada's profile, complete with her commentary that "the children shall teach us, for they know nothing of politics"

  3. After the Clinton reign of terror conservatives went to sleep and the Vote Freedom First President absorbed all power unto himself. McCain is already hated, Obama not as much. Fascism of all stripes will be able to squeeze more mileage out of Obama, I'm afraid.

  4. Sorry, I'm trying to eat lunch here. Only made it 30 seconds into the shindig. Rather keep my lunch in stomach.

  7. I saw a billboard with a similar theme. Saint -- oops, getting a litle ahead there -- I mean BISHOP Desmond Tutu, with the slogan "His moral compass points to equality."
    Everyone's equal under socialism, all right. Ask any prole. Ask a white South African -- if you can find any alive outside their walled communities.

  8. This falls in line with a children's book I saw yesterday at Costco. Simply titled Barack. It reads like a bloody hagiography.

    It's freakish, but I wonder if we are seeing the birth of a new religion.

    And OMFG, is it ever a creepy experience.

  10. I was unaware that vomiting very hard and straining at it to the maximum, that one can develop a serious and painful rash on ones neck. Until this morning.
