Calls Obama "a Wolf In Sheep's Clothing." "With an eye made quiet by the power of harmony and the deep power of joy, we see into the life of things." William Wordsworth And yet the same revolutionary beliefs for which our forebears fought are still at issue around the globe—the belief that the rights of man come not from the generosity of the state, but from the hand of God. John F. Kennedy Inaugural Address Lincoln's economic advisor Henry C. Carey explained the universal issue in his 1851 Harmony of Interests: "Two systems are before the world.... One looks to pauperism, ignorance, depopulation, and barbarism; the other to increasing wealth, comfort, intelligence, combination of action, and civilization. One looks towards universal war; the other towards universal peace. One is the English system; the other ... the American system, for ... elevating while equalizing the condition of man throughout the world." "Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former." - Albert Einstein |

Calls Obama "a Wolf In Sheep's Clothing." [link to rt.com] Quoting: telling it straight Americans are living in an Orwellian state argue Academy Award-winning director Oliver Stone and historian Peter Kuznick, as they sit down with RT to discuss US foreign policy and the Obama administration’s disregard for the rule of law. Both argue that Obama is a wolf in sheep’s clothing and that people have forgiven him a lot because of the “nightmare of the Bush presidency that preceded him.” “He has taken all the Bush changes he basically put them into the establishment, he has codified them,” Stone told RT. “It is an Orwellian state. It might not be oppressive on the surface, but there is no place to hide. Some part of you is going to end up in the database somewhere.” According to Kuznick, American citizens live in a fish tank where their government intercepts more than 1.7 billion messages a day. “That is email, telephone calls, other forms of communication.” RT’s Abby Martin in the program Breaking the Set discusses the Showtime film series and book titled The Untold History of the United States co-authored by Oliver Stone and Peter Kuznick. "Obama was a great hope for change" RT: It took both of you almost five years to produce this series. And in it you have a chapter called Obama: Management of a Wounded Empire. You give a harsh critique of the Obama administration. What in your eyes has been the most troubling aspect of his presidency, Oliver? Oliver Stone: I think under the disguise of sheep’s clothing he has been a wolf. That because of the nightmare of the Bush presidency that preceded him, people forgave him a lot. He was a great hope for change. The color of his skin, the upbringing, the internationalism, the globalism, seemed all evident. And he is an intelligent man. He has taken all the Bush changes he basically put them into the establishment, he has codified them. That is what is sad. So we are going into the second administration that is living outside the law and does not respect the law and foundations of our system and he is a constitutional lawyer, you know. Without the law, it is the law of the jungle. Nuremburg existed for a reason and there was a reason to have trials, there is a reason for due process – ‘habeas corpus’ as they call it in the United States. he is just playing. he will love Obama again if Obama lets fall HAgel. Stone is not worrying about freedom, heel no! He is worrying for israel. |

Change your view and view the world as a big WWF match and then you will begin to see the way the world works. Not to say that the loss of those in the Great Game is not real...it is very real...but the big picture fed to you by the goverments of the world is a lie. After world war two the winners knew this and created a stage upon which the world can play. |

Calls Obama "a Wolf In Sheep's Clothing." Surprise to me, too. Shows you how bad things have really gotten. The interview with him was nothing short of amazing...and frightening. well, not entirely surprising as Oliver Stone IS the producer of the movie "JFK", so he is known to be open to a conspiracy theory or two, lol never mind "Wall Street" and the sequel, which nicely summed up what was going on which led to the great crash of 2008 Never mind "Platoon" and "Born on the 4th of July", so he also knows a thing or two about the military industrial complex in other words, he isn't the usual Hollywood airhead, and I'm glad to see that he wasn't sucked in by the most recent dose of kickapoo joy juice the movies he has done has assured that he travels easily in certain circles, circles which include retired businessmen and politicians, where he gets to hear even more 411 amazing what old dudes tell each other while a little drunk and sitting in a steam room |
