  • Video Skewering Appeasement

    Because of the recent Obama Appeasement Kerfuffle, this video deserves another view. This Zucker video parodies Republican James Baker on his willingness to negotiate with Mahmoud Ahmadinejad (محمود احمدی‌نژاد). Substitute Barack Obama for James Baker in this video and you see what an Obama presidency would look like in reference to Middle East policy.

    Hat Tip: Bookwormroom

    Does this video cartoon produced in 1932 remind you of any current candidates? Yes, only ALL OF THEM!

    Victory Is Our Business Video

    A vintage video produced in 1942 showing how General Motors contributed to the war effort before the “Wussification of America.”

    Freedom and Power Video Part 2

    This video produced in 1952 uses less animation and more live action to show how electrical power and freedom are linked. This video shows how many advances in technology that were achieved during the life of a 75 year old man in 1952. A “house of the future” is shown from a 1952 perspective and I find it very interesting. My favorite quote is, “We are not a nation of destroyers. We are a nation of builders!” That is a true statement. Unfortunately there are many Americans born and raised who would ridicule this video and deny its point of view. If you love America, you will love this video.

    If you don’t love America, this video will make you arrogantly laugh or get angry. Detractors of the United States want the U.S. weak and “wussified”.

    One of the main goals of Environmental Collectivists is to shut down the motor of the world through ignorance and paranoia about the environment. To shut down the motor of the world the United States must be weak. For those who think the United States is bad or repressive, consider this: Millions of people would not risk their lives to get into the U.S. illegally if it were as bad as U.S. detractors say it is.

    Freedom and Power Video

    An excellently produced animation produced in 1952 which shows that electricity and its multiple uses was developed by free individuals and that we are all freer today because of electrical power. This video is reminiscent of a time when it was encouraged to feel good about your country. It has everything great…guns, freedom, and technology in a time when America wasn’t so “wussified.” If you love America, this video will make your heart swell with pride and happiness. If you don’t like the United States, this video will make you have an aneurism. Enjoy.

    The Secret of American Production Video

    This film produced in 1955 by Harding College in Searcy, Arkansas breaks down very simply why the United States is so productive and has such a high standard of living. Notice that the instructor mentions the “Freedom TO” do things not the “Freedom FROM” doing things. Today Collectivists trumpet freedom from hunger not the freedom to produce more food. The “Freedom to” is liberty, the “Freedom from” is dependancy.

    Hat Tip: Bookworm. Thank you Bookworm for posting this cartoon!

    Here is another gem of a cartoon produced in 1948 by Searcy College in Arkansas. This is a cartoon that should be shown in schools around the United States and probably would be but for the Collectivist bent of the educational establishment.

    My friend Ed Morrissey at Captain’s Quarters blog was right on the money (as usual) when he encouraged me to dedicate a catagory of my blog to vintage nostalgic video content. There is a large community out there that shares my love of these video gems.

    Ronald Reagan Speaks Out Against Socialized Medicine

    Hat Tip: BurfordHolly commenter at Captain’s Quarters blog.

    This nostalgic content is addictive. We need someone now who can enunciate clearly and simply about how insidious Collectivism is like Ronald Reagan did in 1961. This audio clip is part of a Long Play (LP) record sent out by the American Medical Association as part of the Operation Coffee Cup Campaign.

    I know it isn’t video but I am still putting it in this catagory.

    Allies Drive Across Rhine to Victory Video

    Hat Tip: Internet Archive

    This blast from the past is a newsreel from Universal Studios produced in March 1945 during very heavy fighting as American forces entered Cologne (Koln) and crossed the Rhine River on the Bridge at Remagen soon before it collapsed under fire. Also shown are meetings leading up to the formation of the United Nations in San Francisco and relief efforts for civilians ravaged by war. Notice the very different tone of the war coverage from that we hear today. Even though thousands of U.S. troops were dying and being wounded, the focus is continually on victory and not how many of our troops died that day. Enemy troops are regarded as such and even ridiculed as shown by the narrator’s comment, “…one “superman” gets his.”

    I actually visited Cologne and Remagen (the bridge was not rebuilt) multiple times while I lived in Germany. It is sobering to see how “WW2″ style wars are fought. The entire city of Cologne is shown in rubble except for the Cathedral which was intentionally spared by Allied bombing. Because fighting “WW2” style was so brutal, the Nazi Germans, Fascist Italians and Imperial Japanese were all defeated in less than five years. We should learn a lesson from that and not “wuss out” about the war we are fighting now.
