The One Thing: 9/22

" Hello America. Leo I've been trying to figure this out and that's one thing that the critics of this program don't understand that it that I. I think out loud and these are not rhetorical questions that I'm -- I really want answers. If if I'm wrong. Please let me know how -- helping -- figure the puzzle -- because that's what this is life has become a stupid puzzle. For quite some time. I've known back in the Bush Administration when they weren't -- in the border and they said are you got us all about security wasn't right wasn't right. You know something's not right and you've known it as well but she can't figure it out and it's not just that Obama has really liberal or the stupid political games of left and right. I'm done playing those games and I think you are to you worry about your children's future. What will the country look like in ten years if we. If we -- going down this course. Something big is happening much much bigger and I -- Nobody is talking about it nobody's even trying to figure it out except it's feels like you'll -- me. I believe last night on this program it was an off -- moment for anybody. In America that is really trying to just open their mind and figure things out when I showed you this board last night. The Apollo alliance OK look it's acorn. Acorn founder made risky its former chairman of heights senator. That's weird it. Brass -- was on the -- board. Acorn tied to Apollo then Jones Jeff Jones Weather Underground all all. And SE IU is on the other side of that I mean acorn tides SE -- all these connections. I mean. And we're seeing now how they're all intertwined in this seeing people keep popping up over and over again it's pretty eye opening. But when you combine that. With what is being mobilized. I mean what. What's happening is absolutely frightening what it looks like it's coming our way I mean -- that's. In unless you like France or something worse. How do we know what anybody in this administration is really working towards because they won't talk to people at fox they won't talk to anybody last in a tough question. Last night I play this audio for you and I think it takes on a whole new light when you actually. Listen in the in the context of what you've learned over the last couple of months listen this is the president of the United States."

" The Supreme Court never ventured into the issues of redistribution of wealth the tragedies of the civil rights movement was. Because the civil rights movement became so court focused. I think -- there was a tendency to lose. -- of the political and community organizing. And activities on the ground. That are able to put together the actual coalitions of power through which you bring about redistributed. Change."

" You see that deal that could could you shouldn't over here look at this. Sorry sorry Oscar -- a tendency to lose track of the political and community what -- what happened to it. -- over there. Community. It was up on the one O three over here a -- It if you lose track of the political community organizing. Action on the ground that can bring together. The coalition. Of powers which bring about. The the redistribution. Of wealth. Well let's look at this. -- what we what we have here. We have the coalition of power we have the community organizing. This is the structure that's going to bring. The redistribution. Of wealth this is it. It doesn't take a genius to figure out -- you know what Soros nobody's looking at -- he's not really playing a role here how appropriate I can't really fully erase his name from the board. Change these arrows. Got to go both ways. What happens. -- tides have the Apollo acorn SE IU and Obama you have at all I mean look at -- President Obama. Look at who -- kids who is this man. Okay we know that he was mentored by a Communist in his youth I Communist in his -- RI who have. As an -- Communist mentor. Okay nobody that I know but he did that's okay is there any piece of him what piece did he take from Frank Marshall Davis I'd like to know. Then he said in his own words that he sought out Marxist professors at college so we've got communism and then we have marxism. -- went to a black liberation theology church. For twenty years look up black liberation theology -- That's what it is when this first came -- with Reverend Wright. I -- up. It's marxism. It started. Down in in South America as a way for revolutionaries to take hold because the church was so strong. They needed to get marxism into the churches. That's what this it is. Then he worked his his whole life. For social justice. Look social justice up it is synonymous. With the theology of marxism. Socialism. You got socialist working. I don't mean I don't know what you calling I really don't know what it is what should we believe is the man does he believe in marxism I hit. You're made into an idiot if you say -- like that. But what we're doing right now is not the free market system I don't know what to call it it's shades of something here. I don't know what it is but nobody will even asked the question. What do you call spreading the wealth around what do you call what he just said that you need to look. You need to look at the community organizers and the structure that they can make. That will lead to the redistribution. Of wealth. What do you call that. It's not the American dream. Is not the free market system although there is a whole lot of free up on that board. He is certainly. Not forgotten or lost track of the political and community organizing activities on the -- political time. Organizing unions -- He has not lost how they can pull together the actual coalitions of power is. To which you bring about redistribute of change. Now if you're gonna fundamentally transform our country which is what he has told us he's going to do. We better do it fast. You better do -- fast before people catch on. The thing is if they start to catch on you better have control of the media. I am sorry to say in America most of the media has already surrendered to this government they didn't even have to march in Vegas surrendered. You know what I'm never going to surrender and I believe most at fox will never surrender. But we all have our own decisions to make and here's a great thing. Right now they can't sit on things anymore and I don't know. CBS AB CNBC they can't just say well we're just not gonna we're gonna talk about socialism -- we're gonna talk about -- history. We're not gonna talk about the coalition of power that can bring redistributed. To change. We're not gonna talk about that and it'll just go away will now that doesn't happen. Because fox is here and also just as importantly the Internet is all. But did you notice there -- new rules being contemplated about the Internet. To. Of Obama is czarist regulatory czar -- some steam and diversity is our mark Lloyd we haven't spent much time on him but maybe we should start. Just a reminder on who mark Lloyd is this is what he said about the Chavez. Revolution."

" It's. Program. You -- okay."

" It is true. It goes on to say that there was some corporations and many people here from Washington and and the United States that. Made it difficult for that revolution to take place all those darn pesky broadcasters. All bland he was just."

" Really."

" What we're really things -- certain deductions not enough. And at that FA EA. Having a certain overarching rule that says -- broadcasters are to be. There ought to provide. The issues important to communities and that they -- you do it in a fair and balanced way. It's simply not from what she puts them keep them do that and it's been hard structural rules in place that are going to result in there."

" Results in fairness he defines that by the way I mean -- put words in his mouth but. Gosh I've seen a lot of his words he defines that as the government having complete control the airwaves. Okay by the way that was from -- way way way back in 2007. All I know we're just cherry picking the quotes. You know it's not like he wanted to regulate who's allowed to have any kind of power right."

" We have really truly good white people in important. Positions. And the facts of the matter is that there are limited number of those positions. And unless -- conscious of the need to have more people of color. Gays. I think people in those positions we will not change the problem. -- in a position where you have to you have to say who is going to step down -- so someone else."

" Can have power. Why now. Thank you United States government I don't find that in that pesky constitution anywhere but think you who's gonna step down until someone else can have our. Well this is how Obama's hand picked diversity czar. He says that the revolution in Venezuela. Was important the Fairness Doctrine doesn't go far enough and that we need to look at who's going to step down so someone else can have power. Well how are you possibly. Gonna ever convince the American people that this is right well let me tell you something. First of all we're the three questions we're gonna try to answer today if you wanna change America you wanna change it what -- you -- change it to. What is it that we're changing to second question. How do you change it -- all you use this structure that's how you change it. And the third question is how do you make it -- how do you make it -- Because this is so on American. What you just heard from the diversity is our is sold. Opposite of what we're used to who's gonna step down so the government can have somebody else step up what power. Well it reminds -- some that I saw this morning on fox when I was watching FOX & Friends. Look at what's happening in Venezuela watch this."

" Inside the schoolyard they play nice Jim Clancy homework milk and cookies. Innocents. Outside with the adult -- is another story tear gas riot police. A nationwide fight raging here over what to teach in Venezuela schools and the man who controls this country's presidency it's oil courts parliament and media. He's now trying to control its future -- is widows children with the new law on education. Muscles get everybody but. In the capitalist society it is all about the individual you're gonna you know America we are all the -- you were all -- socialist Chavez is openly defiant about his golden. Indoctrination. Of the young see related story yes we are -- children from the first grade I mean how every -- Private schools. The ideology of the revolutionary ideology socialism -- our ideology with the two sides squaring off in the streets the unusual situation results. That on the first day of school some of the parents are more nervous -- the children."

" Well I can't imagine why it's just socialism or all socialists now -- we -- that's what our media is telling us and by the way you don't know what. It means to redistribute the wealth. It can Mary Joe and Harry you're missing Joe you have -- money on -- The Joe is just one of these fat capitalist series -- only -- okay. Harry you don't make enough not -- you keep this you take that there you go thanks. That's what it means. -- seems pretty American doesn't it. Take money from Joe given. Very and a very if he gets really fattened sassy I might just take it from him as well -- that he wants to start a company you better come to me. That's not American. That's socialism. Chavez style. Well Chavez is crazy right we never do that here. Writes. Well fortunately for."

" Us we have watchdogs. I've asked you keep an eye on this government keep an eye -- what's going on you see something wrong you'll let us know well I -- tip from a guy who doesn't want to be identified because he is afraid. I told him I wouldn't identify him. He said this is being played in my child's school and we found out it's being played in schools all across America let me ask you if you want."

" Your kids. Learning about capitalism. And how our government works and how capitalism works. Your tax Payer supported schools are playing this."

" Well let's start with the government. In my friends tell me I should use a tank to symbolize the government and that's true in many countries an increasingly in our own. After all more than 50% of our federal tax -- now going to the military. But -- a person to symbolize the government because I'll hold true to the vision and values the government should be other people by the people for the people. --"

" First of all -- to symbolize our government. Well we're just a -- a war mongers are only. Not only -- they -- and the military here they're completely wrong 50% of taxpayer money does not go to the military it's actually more along the lines of 20%. They intentionally take out Medicaid Medicare and Social Security from the equation -- he wow and where did they get that's that's. From the war resisters league war resisters league gee that sounds very anti war it is an anti war group that's where they got the staff. But let's hear a little bit more about our government. What what did she say in this but our government's job actually."

" It is. I'll hold true to the vision and values the government should be other people by the people for the people. It's the government's job to watch out for us to take care of us that's their job. Then along came the corporation now the reason corporation looks bigger than the government is that the corporation is bigger than the government."

" Okay."

" First of all. I was -- on the left. George Bush is in bed with global government I always wins -- yep. Where you now G."

" GE is now."

" Not a bad at a low --"

" By the way. The job of the government this is what's being -- some of schools across country the job of the government. Is to -- take care of you know it's not know it is not. They get this idea from the promote the general welfare part of the constitution I can't believe they get it from America's I don't think -- even read it. Apparently felt like -- look at the actual words of James Madison you know the guy who wrote it. He said quote with respect to the words of general welfare I have always required regarded them as qualified by the if you take them a literal and unlimited sense would be a metamorphosis. Of the constitution enough of this a metamorphosis. A metamorphosis James. -- James Madison's word wow. Fundamental. Transformation. Fundamental transformation of America as Barack Obama would call he is change."

" We are -- there's a way that. From London -- transforming the united states of -- man."

" Let me show you something else here."

" So here we are running up against her first limit we are running out of -- we are using too much stuff. I know this can be hard to -- but -- the truth so we've got to deal with it. In the past few decades alone 13 -- the planet's natural resource base has been consumed. Gone. Yes cutting and mining and holing and trashing the place so fast they were undermining the planet variability. From people who live here. Well I live in United States we have less than 4% of our original forests left."

" Less than 4%. Of our original forests are a little of this --"

" They came said that it said 95 to 90% of the force in continental US have been -- long at least once since the settlement by Europeans."

" That volley out lap and -- then barber exact course completely leaves out the back that we've -- those juries yeah. You know god didn't think we -- agreed to let them and -- mysteries why did he give them scenes. There's more. Remember this -- she wants you to think that we use what I -- remember is that countries there's nothing but less than 4% last. Well when you think the consumption -- really started. Maybe the roaring twenties well at the circle represents the amount of force that we had back in nineteen funny. We have to add more trees in here in fact. Fourteen million acres of trees. Just to get back to what we have in the year 2000. You kidding me for not losing forests were gaining force yet this video sweeping the nation played in your children's schools. The site that posted this video claims millions have watched it 600000 educators have watched -- 7000 schools and churches have -- this dvd and by the way. The media has already reported on this story it was the New York Times that did a story on this Alia the New York Times they could it was fine straightforward child friendly was happy in fact. They sent a team better than Al Gore's inconvenient truth 'cause -- shorter and easier to compact in a class segment. What you can watch it and then you can -- in a class the Sox discussion well that's neat New York Times thanks. But who made this put the address up. You wanted to buy that this is what you would do -- Annie Leonard she's a former Greenpeace employee an independent lecturer. Yeah she's from Berkeley California but more importantly something that nobody has asked."

" Who made it."

" The tides foundation. That tides foundation. It's neat how all ties together. Back in a minute."
