Why is Obama HAVING PORKULUS MONEY USED to FUND TEACHING KIDS to HATE AMERICA?
A new propaganda video created by an extreme environmental activist is making its way into America's classrooms and The New York Times loves the whole idea. Enviro obsessive Annie Leonard, Greenpeace member and activist, has created a 20 minute video filled with anti-capitalist, anti-American propaganda to encourage kids to eschew "stuff," calling the presentation "The Story of Stuff." Leonard's propaganda piece is so anti-American she even begins her video by saying that her "friends" say she should describe the United States by using the symbol of a military tank because "it's true in many countries and increasingly in our own." And why is a tank "increasingly" the symbol of the USA? Because "more than 50% of our federal tax money is going for our military." Naturally, this misleading propaganda doesn't mention that a large portion of that federal military spending ends up going to the weekly pay and health care of our soldiers, something apparently Ms. Leonard is against. She goes on to say that a government's job is to "take care of us, that's their job." Here she is trying to promote dependency and proves that she has no clue what a government is really for -- especially in the U.S. system.

It isn't. If a video points out the true amount of money spent on the military, and military costs do include service people, then it isn't propaganda, just facts. And the government is supposed to use taxpayer money for the welfare of Americans, not to line their own pockets. That's a basic concept, not propaganda.

Look, this is your opinion and you're entitled to it, but most Americans don't agree with you. We don't define "hating America" as having strong environmental stances or admitting that we are sometimes wrong, but in supporting torture, in entering illegal wars, and in selling our country to China so the rich can get richer.

Looks like mostly morons and liberals answered your question, oh wait I forgot, their the same thing. Yeah this wouldn't surprise me, I took an environmental science course last semester and they tried to push the same bullsh*t. A bunch of hippy scientists were saying how its the United States fault that China produces so much pollution because Americans use better non renewable resources. They then said that the United States is to blame for most problems in the world and blah blah more leftist garbage, I didn't hear all they said since I walked out about 3/4 through the video. You see the problem is that we have whining pacifists who were raised by leftists that control what schools use as material today. All they want to do is tell kids that the military is bad and our nation is bad because it doesn't put 100% of its budget towards helping minorities and gays have their wildest dreams fulfilled. Just think about the good we could do if we disbanded our entire military and put all of that money towards shipping food to starving Chinese and Africans, I mean really who needs a military if everyone just plays games and is nice to each other. Seriously is like these people never moved past the pre school level mentally. The last I checked our annual military budget was something like $500 billion, we have the best funded military in the world. If liberals knew anything about history then they would realize that after six years of occupying two hostile nations we have lost under 5,000 dead, that's an amazing figure for a nation to boast, the Soviets lost thousands in Afghanistan. Now thats not to say that there shouldn't be some reforms implemented to cut costs in certain areas such as $15 per meal per soldier is ridiculous. Although it is wrong to feed lies to children in a misguided effort to implicate America for all of the worlds problems.
