And the asshole who was MCing the Oscars said that Snowdown couldn't be there: "reason was treason." Just another paid propagandists, who probably won't be back next year. The viewing audience was way down and he's an idiot.
Americans who have no experience with, or knowledge of, tyranny believe that only terrorists will experience the unchecked power of the state. They will believe this until it happens to them, or their children, or their friends. Paul Craig Roberts "When plunder becomes a way of life for a group of men living together in society, they create for themselves in the course of time a legal system that authorizes it and a moral code that glorifies it." Frederic Bastiat

Yeah, the treason of the rulers.
About the Oscars. Watching people go completely over the top to congratulate and heap praise on themselves/one another, while simultaneously preaching left-wing politics from their pulpits, all the while being completely out of touch with mainstream society, comes across as condescending and is a complete put-off to me. But the worst part is people eat it up like the fast food garbage it is. We have a society of ignorant people that get their news from TMZ and are more concerned about what Bruce Jenner is doing than what our leaders are doing. Cue Roy Orbison's "It's Over."
Watch the movie here. This is not the "Normal" Oscar which praises a persons work, it praises someone elses work on behalf of the people of the WORLD.
