In World War II this was seen as never before, because (1) the world was more addicted to mass entertainment than ever, (2) the first generation of sound movie stars were all of soldier age, and (3) the communist Roosevelt administration's agenda was a twisted dream of a socialist "new world order" ruled by a do-gooder United States -- a dream shared 100% as much by the movie moguls.
Hollywood became a voluntary war-propaganda mill during WW2, turning out not only features movies but training and demagogic films dedicated to furthering America's political and cultural imperialism in its usual impossibly banal, smug, arrested-development fashion. These pictures still with us today; some are even considered classic -- and nobody but us supposed cynics seems to count the implications! Many are spelled out with sample footage in a rare documentary called Hollywoodism, though for complete opposite purposes than that of this blog.
It's 2011 now, and despite all the supposedly liberating and salvific benefits of high tech, the warmongering is no less manic or jaded. But thankfully, there is now a healthy pro-peace culture which overlaps with the tax-freedom movement and other healthy dynamics. One of the few, ultra-select email subscriptions I receive daily is BrasscheckTV.com. Today its send is most apt: an actual WW2-era Disney cartoon which brazenly stumps for people to pay their taxes in order to finance the only form of patriotism many people back then could think of: war, war, endless war!
Excuse me, I meant to say "democracy", didn't I? After all, America only drops bombs on countries or works them over with uranium or agent orange in order to bring them the joy of democracy, i.e. total self-determination and freedom from all dominance by hostile forces of tyranny. Cable TV, too!
Oh, yes, that Brasscheck video:

.........How about these "your tax dollars at work"-type items courtesy of the decadent but often useful NewsOfTheWeird.com?
The CIA recently won two court rulings allowing the agency to refuse comment about its former contractor Dennis Montgomery -- rulings that issues involving him are "state secrets" (despite strong evidence that the main "secret" is merely how foolish the agency, and the U.S. Air Force, were to pay Montgomery at least $20 million for bogus software following 9-11, according to a February New York Times report). Montgomery, a small-time gambler who said he was once abducted by aliens, convinced the two agencies that his sophisticated software could detect secret al-Qaida messages embedded in video pixels on Al Jazeera's news website. According to the Times report, Montgomery has not been charged with wrongdoing and is not likely to be, since the agencies do not want their gullibility publicized. [New York Times, 2-28-2011]

THREE OBAMA OFFICIALS IMPLICATED IN SEDITIOUS PLOT
TO DISMANTLE U.S. CONSTITUTION
URGENT UPDATE: NEW EVIDENCE COMES OUT OF OBAMA ADMINISTRATION OFFICIALS' INVOLVEMENT IN PLAN TO EFFECTUALLY REWRITE THE U.S. CONSTITUTION AND BILL OF RIGHTS. SOROS-FUNDED EFFORT TO FORCE AMERICA INTO ACCEPTING A MARXIST MANIFESTO BY 2012 UNDERWAY IN OBAMA FACTION, LED BY KEY EXECUTIVE BRANCH APPOINTEES.
Just days after Marxist Free Market Saboteur Steve Lerner’s plans for mass May Day national economic disruptions have become known via secretly caught exposure of a taped meeting with other extremists, now new evidence implicates the Obama White House in sedition. Regulatory Czar Cass Sunstein; his wife Samantha Power, Senior Director of the National Security Council; and Department of Justice Attorney General Eric Holder are key players in a related plot to dismantle and destroy America's Constitutional republic.
In April 2005, Sunstein opened a conference at Yale Law School sponsored by George Soros’ Open Society Institute entitled, "The Constitution in 2020.” The event was designed as a forum to craft the agenda and assign the tasks for changing the nature and interpretation of the Constitution into a fully “progressive” Marxist Manifesto by the year 2020. Sunstein was a natural fit for the conference, as his 2004 book, “The Second Bill of Rights: FDR'S Unfinished Revolution and Why We Need It More than Ever” proposed a radical new document to replace America’s traditional Bill of Rights.
The conference was co-sponsored by the American Constitution Society, another hard Left Marxist organization which seeks to rewrite the Constitution. Attorney General Eric Holder not only previously served on the ACS Board of Directors, but is keynote speaker for their 2011 Convention.
The Obama faction onslaught against America is coming from all sides. A union thug with White House connections plots to crash the American economy while high ranking Obama officials seek to subvert the Constitution and Bill of Rights. We MUST compel Congress to open investigations and HALT the Obama wrecking crew that is daily dismantling America!
Recent audio has been released which outlines a very real plan to collapse the American economy - including crashing the stock market and disrupting the banking system - in an effort to finally and irrevocably bring about the fundamental change, radical change, Obama promised. The sinister plan is set to take place the first week of May... and evidence suggests the plan may go all the way to the White House.
Steve Lerner is well known in union thug circles as the guy who uses intimidation to ensure success. March 19, 2011 Steve Lerner met with Abby Scher of Brooklyn College CUNY, Gerardo Dominguez of the Mexican American Workers Association, John Atols of ACORN and a number of other openly Marxist, Obama-faction activists. Surrounded by fellow radicals , Mr. Lerner was unaware he was being recorded, and clearly felt comfortable enough to lay out his step by step plan already underway to “put a boot in the wheel” of the American economy - crashing the stock market and orchestrating a complete banking collapse - in an effort to force Marxism upon the masses. Full audio with transcripts of Lerner’s plot can be found on You Tube, at The Blaze website where this story broke, and all over the Internet.
Lerner identifies this as a union plan, presumably crafted by his cronies at the SEIU, and he calls for the aid of other Obama-faction leaders and community organizers. But evidence suggests Lerner may already have the assistance of Administration insiders and the Community Organizer in Chief – Barack Hussein Obama.
White House visitor logs show that Stephen Lerner has visited the White House repeatedly over the last two years. At least one of these visits was arranged by the office of then White House Political Director Patrick Gaspard – one of Lerner’s previous SEIU colleagues and former leader of one of the most notoriously militant SEUI chapters. Gaspard, not coincidentally, is a close Obama advisor who is now the Executive Director of the Democratic National Party and a key player on Obama’s 2012 election team.
Obama made clear in a now infamous 2008 campaign rally that SEIU’s agenda is his agenda. Obama led a SEIU member chant after recalling how he started his early "organizing career" with SEIU troops on the ground, and went on to declare, “Just imagine what we can do together. Just imagine a President whose life’s work is your (SEIU’s) work!” It seems we no longer need to imagine. The present occupant of the Oval Office has brought sedition to the presidency – the highest office in the land. Barack Obama’s own front group “Organizing for America” helped stage the recent Wisconsin "Days of Rage" protests that were notable for union-led violence, death threats and radical acts of intimidation, and now it appears he and his Administration may be connected to a far-left coalition of subversives actively plotting to collapse the American economy.
My friends, Stephen Lerner’s closed-attendance discussion at The Left Forum was not some simple academic and theoretical discussion of what revolutionary resistance might look like. It was a high-level presentation of a very real, well thought out plan for economic terrorism already in play, and a well-received recruitment call to leftwing radical leaders of other Obama-faction organizations to join him. Stephen Lerner’s terrorist plans, and actions of incitement and enlistment are outright sedition, all potentially prosecutable offenses.
In normal circumstances, we could count on the Department of Justice to investigate and uphold the rule of law. But alas, as we have seen with Eric Holder’s refusal to prosecute colleagues, supporters and friends of Obama, including the election fraud and racist thuggery at the hands of the New Black Panthers, the once venerable DOJ is a rogue agency in a rogue Administration, and can no longer be trusted to do its duty. Why have not the murky, possibly orchestrated causes behind the terrible economic crisis of the 2008 national fiscal collapse been investigated and disclosed to the nation? No, we must instead call upon this 112th Congress, and demand an immediate investigation of Stephen Lerner, and all of those who participated in his conspiratorial call to anarchy, sedition and economic terrorism on March 19. That investigation must include disclosure of all the participants and plotters lurking behind the scenes who are actively working to subvert, disrupt and destroy America – even if that road leads us directly to the White House.
This is no longer a matter of speculation. The Marxist plan to smash our republic is alive and active within the corridors of power in America as never before. Their plans to launch their latest assault on these United States is scheduled for, of course, May Day – May 1, 2011 – and has been sounded to their foot soldiers as a very real and potentially calamitous call to harm our nation. I warned when Obama first appeared on the national scene that he was at the least an academic Marxist surrounded by radicals, and a menace to the security, sovereignty and prosperity of the nation. Now there is evidence in abundance to confirm my judgment. We MUST force Congress to act NOW – before the evil forces that mean to destroy America are able to implement their plans. The very survival of our country is at stake if we do not take seriously the threat within. I implore you, fax Congress TODAY.

..........Got this from a church member. Touching, very touching!
In church Sunday, I over heard a lady in the pew next to me saying a short private prayer. It was so sweet and sincere that I just had to share with you.
This has been a tough 12 months. You have taken my favorite actor Patrick Swayze, my favorite actress Farrah Fawcett, my favorite musician Michael Jackson, my favorite salesman Billy Mays and my favorite athlete Steve McNair.
I just wanted you to know that my favorite president is Barack Obama.
Amen!
Now, some fantastically good news, if rather vulgar in the reporting:
Iceland Rejects Bankster Shakedown
http://www.prisonplanet.com/iceland-rejects-bankster-shakedown.html
.........Iceland did something unthinkable in the United States – it went after the banksters and their minions. In early March, Sigurdur Einarsson, former chairman of the defunct Icelandic bank Kaupthing, was arrested in London. The the Special Prosecutor’s Office in Reykjavik ordered the police to raid the homes of other bank principals. Ivar Gundjonson of Iceland’s failed Landsbanki bank was also arrested............
