1948 cartoon
Everyone in the USA should see this 1948 vintage cartoon...Pay close attention to what is being said and how much of it is true today, 63 years later... I remember when Patriotism wasnt a bad word and Animal Farm was required reading in school...Where have we gone from there?

In my opinion, the Snake Oil Ism salesman looks just like Obummer...And his fate in 2012.

There are too many people in this country today who had no parents or grandparents living in this country in 1948 and have no idea of the concept of American heritage, capitalism, democracy or the American dream. All they know is gimme, gimme, gimme.
