Obama, Nothing Sacred: Singing Children and Hitler Youth

I watched one of those great old movies last night on Turner Classic movies:  "Nothing Sacred" (rating 99--could be talked into 100) with Carole Lombard.  There is a scene in the movie that should remind you (in a very creepy way) of the Obma campaign.

 

"Nothing Sacred" is a movie about a woman faking a fatal illness to get a trip to New York City.  In the process, she becomes a heroine, as a newspaper hypes her "braveness" in the shadow of certain death.  Hazel Flagg (the Lombard character) becomes a symbol that everyone attempts to use for their own ends.  The satire is how the entire city shows itself to be more phony than the woman faking a fatal illness.  The plot alone should remind you of the Obama campaign, and the mainstream media support of it, where nothing is real.

 

But "Nothing Sacred" contains a scene that is more directly parallel to the Obama campaign.  If the movie were a horror movie, instead of a comedy, it would be one of the creepiest scenes in the history of movies.  The Obama campaign parallel is one of the creepiest campaign stunts in the history of political campaigns--almost matched by a second Obama campaign video.

 

Have you seen or heard that Obama video with young children singing the praises of Obama?  It was produced by the Hollywood left, and it is one of the creepiest things I have ever heard.  To show there is nothing new under the sun, see "Nothing Sacred".  I has almost an identically creepy, and phony, singing event.  Some 20 young children show up to sing to dying Hazel Flagg--to the tune of "Battle Hymn of the Republic", or some similarly famous patriotic song.  The childish voices singing those over-the-top praises that they don't even understand (much less feel) are hilarious.  If Hazel Flagg were really dying, of course, the scene would be creepy as Hell.

 

If it would not go over people's heads, a great campaign ad (anti-Oama) would be to juxtapose those children singing the praises of Obama with the children singing the praises of Hazel Flagg.

 

There are other scenes eerily reminiscent of the Obama campaign.  there is the scene where Hazel Flagg is saluted with a tribute to the great heroines of history, and asked to go up on stage and take her place among those heroines, where she belongs (Greek temple anyone?).  A drunken Hazel promptly gets trampled by horses on stage. 

 

It is an hilarious movie.  If they were not so scary, Obama's campaign, and supporters, would be just as hilarious.

 

There is even another video that has surfaced.  This one, which has evidently surfaced in Kansas City, has paramilitary looking teens (13 to 15 or so) chanting the praises of Obama, something like the Hitler youth brainwashed to idolize Hitler.

 

In some ways, Obama has parallels with Hitler, as well as with Hazel Flag.  Hitler, too, was a spellbinding speaker--albeit without the aid of a teleprompter.  Hitler, too, rose to prominence in a time of economic turmoil, even though today is hardly the same as the Great Depression (despite media and leftist Democrat, as well as establishment Republican, scare tactics).

 

Whether recreating creepy/funny fiction or creepy/tragic historical reality, Obama and his supporters are revealing themselves by recreating the past.  I wonder if they realize it?
