Spoon feed rich kids that think they are better then everyone else and a disgrace to any way of thinking that means anything... Just because their parents have programmed them this way doesn't make them any holier than anyone else! When life delivers them real problems about their beliefs then they will change their thoughts and life's fast!

They can't avoid life's lesson anymore then anyone else! The leaders leading this program are the ones that will be dealt with by the real gods of the universe...

Tom Delay the taker of bribes and the one that lead this country down is not someone that should be preaching his terminator mind on our young and future possible leaders!

Tom Delay the uneducated bug terminator leader and disgraced former house leader is nothing but a uneducated bug terminator that has no thoughts about anything but terminating something he doesn't like...

He means nothing in any spiritual sense except how vain someone can get and not know anything about how the universe is run and be in tune to what is right...

That certainly was nauseating, but not surprising. But what else could you expect given their role models, like George "AWOL" Bush and Dick "other priorities" Cheney?

What was remarkable about the Hitler youth there is how witless they all were. They were totally unprepared for the question about military service and fumbled for poorly deliverd and insincere excuses. Nobody in their world - not their parents, not their older siblings, not their church, not their teachers - ever asked them why they weren't enlisting. It's assumed, like the whole rest of the elitist fast-track: college, an MBA, a leveraged buy-out or hostile takeover of a formerly productive business sold for parts, a few inside trades, export a few thousand jobs, some crony contracts defrauding the US. taxpayer, tax evasion and finally, an ambassadorship and a pardon.

These next few years should prove very interesting as this generation of conservative larvae, certainly more antisocial and less talented than the last, mature into adult vermin and take their places under the rocks of the American soil.

America's ruling class is an utter moral vaccuum, from George and Dick to Paris and the Don. It should be interesting to see where they take America. What does everyonr think? Are we ready to go where these people take us?

Back in the late 1980s, they used to be called 'Young Republicans'. I don't know why they relabeled themselves 'College Republicans'. But at Florida State at that time, we always used to call them Hitler Youth. I have always found that label to be the most appropriate.

Let the word go forth from this time and place - to friend and foe alike - that the torch has been passed to a new generation of right-wingers: born in this century; indifferent to war; diciplined by profit; ambivilent toward our ancient heritage - and unwilling to witness our permit the full excersise of those human rights - to which this nation used to be committed and to which we are ignoring today - at home and around the globe....

That faint rumbling you hear in the distance is the sound of John F. Kennedy doing sommersaults in his grave.

Just another symptom of the end of empire. The sad thing is how much of the world will be applauding as we slowly sink below the surface of own bloated delusions of superiority.

We've seen these bloodsuckers before, the vampires of history, the evil we fight over and over and over again:
You masters of war
You that build all the guns
You that build the death planes
You that build the big bombs...
Well I hope that you die
And your death comes soon
And I'll follow your coffin
In the pale afternoon
And I'll watch while you're lowered
Into your deathbed
And I'll stand by your grave till I'm sure that you're dead

My dear parents are republicans, more moderate than far right, thankfully. They did teach me to question things and think for myself. I managed once I left home for good, to experience more of life. I realized that in spite of some good from the conservative side of the fence, they lied more often than not. I am a proud liberal, been so for all of my adult life. For those that join the "young repub's", they can't think for themselves! They just take what they're told and never question anything. I saw that year's ago and unfortunately, more young people join the rightly labeled hitler youth. How do we draw them away from the cult???

What an amazing discovery. There is more hate speech here than at any GOP convention, even one for college Republicans.

Where are the hypocrites? Looks like they are posting right here.

The evolution battle is still being fought in the UK. We even have creationist museums and schools teaching that crap now!

The most important question to have asked would have been how many of these new Patriots were registered for the DRAFT. That is still the law, all males over 18 MUST register for the draft. One would guess that None of them were registered.

I was once young, stupid and republican too. Even did 13 years in the military before resigning in disgust as dumbya invaded Iraq. I can now proudly say I'm in recovery as an Independent thanks to a good dose of reality.
A word of warning though......these priveleged GOP alpha males will be running the show in 30 years IF WE DON'T TAKE THEM OUT NOW with a good dose of reality.
I have found that most "liberals" and moderates are too passive and reluctant to get right up into these motherfuckers faces and SHOUT THEM DOWN with facts and reality. You MUST STAND YOUR GROUND or these chickenhawks will walk all over you. Bill Clinton put it best in an interview back in 2004 (and this is why Kerry lost). I watched this interview as Bill Clinton was asked how the Dems should handle the slander and mud that the GOP always slings during these campaigns. Here's what President Clinton said....

"You have to hit them, and hit them hard. And while they're laying down on the ground bleeding, HIT THEM AGAIN AND AGAIN. Politics is a dirty business and you MUST take out your opponent and not let him frame the argument at hand"

I thought that was a bit rough...but then realized he was right. It's EXACTLY what the GOP did to Kerry in 2004.

TAKE THESE DEMENTED AND MISLED YOUNG COLLEGE REPUBICANS OUT NOW WHILE YOU HAVE THE CHANCE!

The contiguous placebo theme here. is the repugnant disconnect with reality demonstrated by these students representing the College Republican Convention, is indicative of only Republican students and therefore Democratic students represent a change in directional reality. This, just like believing that the Republican and Democrat positions provide a directional change, this is a "pathetic fallacy" for in fact just like the two sides of the same coin, when animated they roll in unison. Then the change in leadership only provides a dispensational change as to who benefits more in the same Corporate American pyramid scheme.

If you want real change in direction, STOP corporate America's deep pocket purchase of today's and tomorrows governance leadership, through Academia's and Congress's sale of allegiance.

what kind of questions they had for tom delay. I would have asked him in repsonse to what he was saying about abortion and immigration, "if free market principles were allowed to prevail in reference to your comments mr. delay, wouldn't these jobs you mentioned get filled because the demand for labor is higher than the supply thus encouraging higher wages and in turn attracting more applicants? Why is it free market principles do not apply when it might be beneficial to labor instead of capital?" I bet I'd have been shown the door just like Max.

Who you College republicans accept money from speaks volumes about the phoniness you are involved in.

Sun Myung Moon has been outed many years now as a fallen religious leader who couldn't keep his pants on or his nose out of politicians agendas. He'd pay anyone who had so little self respect as to put in a good word for him in public.

I was a true believer in Rev. Moon's new age "Unification Church" and saw the movement steadily get twisted until I no longer recognized it. And the same thing has happened to the Republican Party.

Let me tell you about the day I shed my illusions about the Unification Church and Rev. Moon: I was called to a meeting of the faithful by our local leader who said he was going to set us straight about some rumors going around about our movement. We had heard these rumors for awhile but had been indoctrinated that these were lies perpetrated by our persecutors, not unlike the early Christians were accused of all kinds of strange and immoral practices. In this gathering, we were told that it was true: Rev. Moon, the "True Father", had been having sex with many women throughout his life while married to Mrs Moon and producing their 14 children. But this was all part of God's plan for us, you see, because Rev. Moon has the unique mission to absolve original sin in the world, and this is the way it is done!

In reality, the women he had done this with and had the misfortune to become pregnant, were showing up at his mansions with their children and demanding money and recognition as part of his "True Family."

The Republican movement once had very goods ideals. But the GOP has been hijacked by crooks and phonies and neocon megalomaniacs and the likes of Rev. Moon, since before the time of Reagan. WAKE UP!!! before you are completely gone to hell. You are young and can still blame your mistake on youthful ignorance. Soon you will have no excuse.

Kudos to Blumenthal for his guerilla tactics! I just love it when these idiots are given a mouthpiece and they spout off what's really in their gooey black hearts. His production team has obviously learned a lot from Michael Moore about how to expose nincompoop's hypocracy and conformist gobbledygook.

I believe, however, if they had simply kept up the charade all the way out the door, they could've milked much more comedy from these assholes. Look at how long it took them to figure out that Stephen Colbert was lampooning them--he got within spitting distance of the Chimp in Charge! I am sure that Blumenthal could've kept up a masquerade--despite how well-read the Hammer may be--long enough to get another few glimpses of their buffonery.

Both sides of this shouting match make me laugh, the great experiment of the US is over. Period, the designations of left and right, or repugs and liberals are just distractions. The real powers that be don't care which side you are on, it is all one side to them and that is the side of the slaves and sheep. The economic tsunami is coming and if that isn't enough wait until the climate change one way or another manifests itself. Yup. waste energy shouting at each other and pointing fingers instead of actually doing some research and finding out who is running the show. Follow the money, and guess what? It isn't either side they are just minor manifestations to be manipulated and attract attention of the easily fooled. The experiment in opposable thumbs is over, it failed, so enjoy your new lifestyle coming soon. None will be spared the reality of poverty save the few elites that truly know what is going on. Get informed before it is too late, as if it isn't already. But please quit the shouting match back and forth it is useless and it annoys the pig.

I found the video nicely done and scary as hell. The set of beliefs were reminiscent of the petty bureaucrats behind the Nazis, Stalinists and Islamic extremists. They all express hero worship, personal cowardice, admiration for strength, regurgitate pap dogma on demand, fear of homosexuals while having gay tendencies, and adhere to superstition rather than reason. If you want to read more about this, check this out.

Man, I never really realized until watching this how afraid all these republicans actually are. Which is the Irony. They come off like a bunch of gun wielding war hungry macho freaks. But that is only if they can outsource the fighting to some less fortunate kid who had to join the army to maybe get to finish college. They are really a bunch of Shopping Mall TV watching soft ass brats who could maybe have a fist fight at the Hardy's parking lot on a Saturday night. Or kick some ass at World of Warcraft or online poker . They have no heart. Just Fear. They can be easily defeated man !!!! HOoOOOOOoooray. Viva la Intelligence ! We will make them read as a from of punishment !

We Americans are not known to be long range planners. The common knowlege is that we employ the "quick fix" to problems that most likely could've been prevented had future contingencies been considered and solved before action was taken. One example of this is our nuclear power industry. When nuclear power plants were first promoted by Madison Avenue, buzzwords like "power too cheap to meter", and "clean energy for now and forever", etc. were saturating the media networks. Not a peep about what to do with the spent fuel rods or the decommissioned power plants some 30 years in the future. When the subject was brought up by concerned scientists, they were breezily brushed off with nonsense like "that's 30 years from now; the technology will be there to safely dispose of the (highly radioactive) waste by then". Guess what, folks? The technology STILL ain't there, as NOT ONE MINUTE OF RESEARCH WAS DONE to develop it. Now, let's look at the neothugs. In contrast to our usual half-assed, quick profit, and the future can take care of itself mentality, a long range plan of mental and emotional conditioning was embarked upon about the time Lyndon B. Johnson signed signed the Civil Rights legislation and remarked to a reporter: "You know what I just did, don't you? I gave the South to the republicans". From that point on, the rethugs began an insidious plan to condition the minds and (especially) the emotions of our people. This was a multi-pronged attack on our Constitution, our courts, our unions, and just about everything and anybody else responsible for the rise of the middle class and egalitarian politics. The result is what you see today, with family members at odds with each other, and bufoons lile Billo, Anne Coulter, Hannity, etc. given authenticity and respectability by controlled corporate media.Any reasoned arguement aginst the neothug mentality is cut off in midsentence with derision and hackneyed homilies, straight out of the rethug book. Nobody is immune to this blather, especially thse prone to follow rather than think things out. There are sadly, far too many Americans in this catagory-a fact well known and vigorously exploited by people without a shred of decency or conscience. Pablov would be awed.

What really amused me about this video was how all of these "college republicans" just parroted all the same things we've been hearing from the republicans for years now. None of them seemed to have anything new to say. Pretty sad. But also a bit encouraging, I guess. If the next generation of these toads is so uncreative and stupid, maybe there is hope.

One thing that was troublesome, though, was the guy who was talking about how the liberal/democrat students on college campuses are not very politically active. That needs to change.

Forty years ago, while serving as an Air Force intelligence officer in Washington, D.C., I joined the capital’s Young Republican Club.

A 22-year-old bachelor at the time, politics never entered my mind; I was only interested in dating. But after attending a number of Young Republican social functions, I dropped out of the club because most of the single ladies I met were humorless upperclass snobs.

I got the same impression watching the video.

To me, the word that best describes college Republicans -- both guys and gals -- is “jerks.” Unless middleclass voters and the working poor show up at the polls next year and defeat enough GOP candidates to eliminate their influence in Congress, those same jerks will continue Republican domination in business and the military-industrial complex for decades to come.

Here's the main difference between Iraq/Iran and Viet Nam; Viet Nam was a PROXY unacknowledged war with China, one that could never be won, even then. As if one could be won against them now with Russia and the entire rest of the planet backing them up.

Iraq/Iran is NOT a PROXY war with all of Islam; 98% of Islam sees it as an OVERT DECLARED GENOCIDAL war on Islam. As indeed it is, because as each Moslem fights back to the last man, woman, and child, they are designated a terrorist and marked for annihilation. Which means genocide. The only way to win any sort of "War" "Against" "Terror."

98% of the entire rest of the world sees this for exactly what it is, naked boldfaced imperialist completely unwarranted aggression and eventual genocide if surrender never occurs on either side.

Which is why, while the entire rest of the world did not unite and wipe Nazi Amerika off the face of the map over Viet Nam, they absolutely WILL DO SO when the Iraq war expands, at Cheney's desperation, to the nuking of Iran.

And Nazi Amerika, no matter how strong, will not prevail against the entire united rest of the planet. No way. An absolutely impossibility.

And these idiots, in this video, demonstrate horrifically exactly WHY Nazi Amerika learned not a single damn thing worthwhile from the Viet Nam debacle, or at least forgot everything they did learn by the time senile Reagan rolled in playing Hindenburg to Poppy Bush & Son & Co. as Hitler and his inner circle.

Nazi America learned not a damn thing lasting from the disaster of Viet Nam; has not and is not learning a Goddamned (literally) thing from this Mideast debacle, and so our children and our grandchildren are doomed, IF THEY SHOULD SURVIVE AGAINST ALL ODDS, to repeat the endless stupid greedy grasping bloodsucking genocidal mistakes of the past, over and over again as THESE chicken hawk coward cretins send their own children and grandchildren of their poor to their needless and pathetic deaths in THEIR stupid war (if they should be so lucky that there even IS a Nazi America thirty years from now to invade another helpless country again.)

And it will happen because of lost soul assholes such as these in this video, who don't get it, never got it, and will never get it.

It being TRUTH. Because each, out of their own self-hatred and/or greed, has swallowed the lie of fascism, whole.

And that, and they, are Nazi Amerika's epitaph, for as long as they exist, there is no Amerikan future; only a black glowing cinder as a reminder to all for a century of what once was, what could have been, and what was squandered to profit from endless bloodletting born of insatiable greed.

that draft dodger song.

Sarge, I'm only eighteen, I got a ruptured spleen
And I always carry a purse
I got eyes like a bat, and my feet are flat, and my asthma's getting worse
Yes, think of my career, my sweetheart dear, and my poor old invalid aunt
Besides, I ain't no fool, I'm a-goin' to school
And I'm working in a DEE-fense plant

I've got a dislocated disc and a wracked up back
I'm allergic to flowers and bugs
And when the bombshell hits, I get epileptic fits
And I'm addicted to a thousand drugs
I got the weakness woes, I can't touch my toes
I can hardly reach my knees
And if the enemy came close to me
I'd probably start to sneeze

Interesting take on free speech. Not to all of you - not everyone can join the military. Some are too old, to slow, too fat, etc. Some have bad eyesight, injuries, etc.
Admittedly, these young Turks are nauseatingly robotic, but I digress.
I am currently way over the weight limit (i.e. too fat) to join up, due to my fast-food loving lazy-ass American lifestyle. I am currently trying to lose the weight in order to join the Navy.
I guess this makes me a chickenhawk, since I am a war supporter. No free speech rights for me - I must now call for Bush's impeachment.
Bush lied, people died!

I live in a college town, and whenever I see one of these College Republican Business-majors who won't sign up, I think, "Well, there's the reason the US won't succeed in its plans for world domination." These "chickenhawks" are saving America from a possible invasion of Iran, Syria, and God knows where else.

So stop giving these guys such a hard time. The College Republican who can't join because he has "bad knees" is having exactly as much effect on stopping the military machine as the most principled conscientious objector.

Thirty years ago I saw with my own eyes the Republican Herd, at Wichita Mountains National Wildlife Refuge near Altus AFB Oklahoma.

The largest single herd of American Bison... in all there were maybe 20,000 of them at the time, probably more now. Herd animals with 10 or 20 times as many females as males tend to reproduce fairly exponentially.

But there was a time when a Half Billion of these suckers roamed between northern Canada and Northern Mexico.

How did such a huge population die down to where the biggest surviving herd numbers only in the thousands? you might ask...

Well, I might answer, lack of empathy, AND blindly following leaders. That is the lesson to be learned from this story.

When the United States Army decided that the fastest way of exterminating Americans was to Exterminate their food supply, TRUE STORY, and also the easiest because unlike the Americans in question, the buffaloes didn't shoot back...

One neat little thing the Buffalo Killers figured out, actually an Indian told them, all the buffalo in any herd will be following one Matriarch. Not a Bull, but a Cow.
Might not be the biggest meanest cow, either. It doesn't mean very much in terms of near-bovine intellect, but it would be the Smartest cow.
Just a few hours of watching them would confirm the identity of the Smartest Matriarch in the herd. All the bison in the herd would look at her befor
