Oliver Stone (of all people!): "U.S. an Orwellian State" Under Obama. Calls Obama "a Wolf In Sheep's Clothing."

he's whining, yet he probably voted for him and gave him a ton of money in campaign donations. Oh well Oliver and the rest of the Obamanauts...that's what you voted for...now deal with it.

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

exactly, and please note he still blames bush? he must have a movie in the development stages which supports his comments.

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.

Surprise to me, too. Shows you how bad things have really gotten. The interview with him was nothing short of amazing...and frightening.

I still think he is confused he is jewish he lives in US and he made lots of money in Hollywood...

I wouldn't have guessed Oliver Stone would have said this.

Good grief, now we don't know the difference-distance between being jewish and a zionist is in the way of hearing his message.

If a person leans toward benevolence that does not make them stupid. Then again if you think in narrow categories for all people you're legally blind as well as retarded imo.

why can't you guys appreciate what Stone is doing,unless carrying around little turds of hate is as broad as your thinking is able to get.

Surely you understand english. He is blaming bush for opening the door on hell yes, and in addition is blaming obama for expanding to far worse crimes than bush and said as much.

What He is saying should be clear to everyone.

Only those wit-less sheep carrying water and wearing knee-pads for a particular "Party" do not get it.

Whether it comes from the Left or the Right,...the People take a corporate boot to the face in 2012 America.

I wouldn't have guessed Oliver Stone would have said this.

And Mao, Che and Lenin to name a few more

Maybe he's been hearing all the crazy conspiracy stuff from his son Sean who is a member of Jesse Ventura's Conspiracy team.

I have a family in Chicago and friends in NY and California. I have met lots of Americans and I honestly think that they are great people. I think that they have more balls than most of other nationalities, or so I thought... I see now how USA is going down the drain and Americans complain and complain and only complain, unfortunately. Folks, what is wrong with you? Just complaining won’t change anything!

Anyone remember “Solidarnosc”? Poles didn’t complain only organized themselves and stood up to communism and very powerful Russia, and they won because in unity is power. Now they are free and the best standing economically country in the middle Europe. Hey, you know what I have in mind... You started it well with the occupy movements and what? It’s sad to see how your rights are being taken away, how you are losing your jobs and homes when the rich are getting richer. And it’s especially shocking to know that soon you are going to be (OMG) implanted... Where they heck in the World something like this is happening? No where, only in America! Why? Because you let it happen!

Here's the show they were filming based on their book "Untold History of the United States" more episodes on ut
