Title: State Run Media,...At It's Finest, With An AK...
Post by: twyacht on March 28, 2011, 07:59:49 PM
Man,....that's a nice AK.... ::)



“I pledge to you dear leader that I will sacrifice my last breathe, my last bullet, my last drop of blood, my last baby and child for you.”

    A newscaster on a pro-Muammar Qaddafi television show wanted to make a point about the greatness of the Libyan leader.

    He used some serious firepower to do so, bringing an AK-47 to the anchor desk to prove Qaddafi’s willingness to arm his people.

    “I’m ready at any time, awake or asleep, to defend the country. This is our weapon,” the anchor said.

Gutless sheep in this country will not even pass up "Dancing with the Stars" to defend their heritage.
They deserve Obummer.

Limbaugh made this point the other day.  America has exactly the government it deserves, is the way he put it.

I was always partial to the Will Rogers quote. "Just be glad we don't get all the government we pay for."

Having SERIOUSLY looked into moving my family to other countries because of this...  You wouldn't believe how hard / expensive the process is to gain citizenship outside the US!!!!

"Show me another President or leader that would dare arm his civilians if he didn't trust them."  Apparently, our untrustworthy leaders feel that we aren't trustworthy either.  If they'd do what they say/"we the people" tell them, they won't have to be afraid.

I work for a Chinese man, and, according to him, it's not very easy and is expensive to properly move to and become a US citizen.  It's cost him thousands of dollars to legally remain in this country with his family.  His daughter recently became naturalized, but they had to stagger the process for family members because of the expense.

Granted, to do it illegally and then get amnesty is cheaper and maybe even easier.  For the record, my boss hates illegal immigrants.

As does every legal immigrant I know of.

I just want to know who is standing to the reporters right. If you will watch his eyes he keeps looking at someone there. It makes me wonder if he is doing this willingly or not.

Reminds me of the scene in the movie "Airplane" when the Russian news anchor is reading the news on camera with someone holding a gun to his head.   ;D    Bill T.

Producer would be more likely, although you never know.
Considering that the rebels are getting their butts kicked even with our air support it is possible that real Libyan's really are in favor of Qaddafi.
Either way it is a good propaganda piece that I would like to see in an American version.  ;D
