Obama is mic-checked and asked about the 4,000 people arrested during OWS

[RedZero]

Skip to 1:40, that's where they start the mic-check. Oh, and fun fact: I've already seen these two comments on the video: "are you serious? Socialism doesn't work, look at Europe," and also "Obama is a Marxist." ...*sigh* :D

We can raid it with Leftists, and then have a huge tendency war.

According to one of the users commenting on that video, my age makes me an ignorant kid who should "clean my room, do my homework, wait about 10 years [to be educated], and then I can go outside and play."

Man, people with this pious, self-righteous attitude are dolts. Fearful of someone with an opposing ideology.

Meh, don't sweat it. No sense in arguing over a youtube video. Chances of convincing someone you're right over youtube is highly unlikely, and a waste of time really.

Yeah, you're right. I've argued with a lot of people on YouTube..and each time...it's fruitless. If anything, it's good that other people can read the comments, I guess.

Here is what two people just replied to me with:
"You sound like a stupid ass faggot college communist asshole. Go fuck ourself and die."
and this:
"You proved my point. Thank you. Actually, you revealed arrogance more than anything. I CHALLENGE you to look back at your life in 10 or 12 years feel the same as you do now. I didn't say anything about your ability to learn, just that you haven't been alive long enough to fully express a coherent worldview. Trust me. I was a teen ager once too."


Oh well. One of my favorite quotes: "One of my favorite philosophical tenets is that people will agree with you only if they already agree with you. You do not change people's minds." --Frank Zappa

If nobody ever posted another Youtube comment ever?

I just about lost it when the crowd responded with their "Obama! Obama!" chant. It only shores up the perception that liberals are as dogmatic as their conservative counterparts, narrowly defending the interests and policies of their party to the detriment of their own wellbeing and the wellbeing of the international working-class.

Touché.

Isn't that what Congress is currently trying to do?

Europe is socialist only when their economy is failing, when it's not.. ITS CAPITALIST!!

Am I the only one who doesn't hear any mic-checking or asking about arrests in that video? Just Obama going on about some coffee and whatnot...

There's something wrong with the coding. You cannot skip to 1:40; you have to watch it all the way through.
