No one paid attention back then.......
« on: March 15, 2010, 12:54:10 PM »
Cartoon from circa 1948.............evidently, Based on the downward spiral of the last few decades, not many citizens paid attention to it back then.......... and drank the kool-aid anyway.
It is scary with its proximity to today's current state of affairs.




As Crusader Rabbit so often says, "I weep for my country."
"I expect perdition, I always have. I keep this building at my back, and several guns handy, in case perdition arrives in a form that's susceptible to bullets. I expect it will come in the disease form, though. I'm susceptible to diseases, and you can't shoot a damned disease." ~ Judge Roy Bean, Streets of Laredo

For the Patriots of this country, the Constitution is second only to the Bible for most. For those who love this country, but do not share my personal beliefs, it is their Bible. To them nothing comes before the Constitution of these United States of America. For this we are all labeled potential terrorists. ~ Dean Garrison

"When it comes to the enemy, just because they ain't pullin' a trigger, doesn't mean they ain't totin' ammo for those that are."~PegLeg

Great find, Peg!!!
A government big enough to give you everything you want is a government big enough to take from you everything you have. ~ Gerald Ford - August 12, 1974

I grew up in a school system that showed these films.  Clips like this one, and the Walter Cronkite You are There films were what we saw on those occasions when we had earned that type of "entertainment."

Thanks for the memories, and the civics lesson!

That's a better history lesson, than some schools. Should be required viewing for a heck of a lot of people, especially the young.

Where's that young girl, during the BHO campaign, that famously stated, "I won't have to worry about my mortgage, or putting gas in my car..., if BHO's elected!"

Can someone find her, and ask how her hope and change is working out and make her watch this?

Thanks Peg.

That is why our masters in Washington are so anxious to disarm us. They are not afraid of criminals. They are afraid of a populace which cannot be subdued by tyrants."

Nice find Peg!
