I wonder what Republicans (or Ron Paul) would say about this if it were aired today!

Oh, and theres quite a visceral patriotic ending to this.

1. Ha ha, I have this on videotape, and I watched it when I was a little kid.

Yes, the ending was my favorite part, too. Seeing it again, it really is quite cleverly done.

2. Maybe I'm in the minority but
I liked the whole thing.

The video makes very valid points.

We need another like that made to remind people of the many services that tax dollars supply.

We also need one to remind people why we need national health care.

4. Quite interesting how the end projects us as being a global military force
even the clouds turn into our flag!

3. I'm diggin' that zoot suit.
Ah, the good old days, when you had to pay for the wars you were in, instead of letting your grandchildren pay for them.
