Before reading this take into account that in no way have I ever been a conspiracy theorist. After witnessing this movie I am still unsure as to whether or not I believe in these groups, but I think everyone can agree that the things that are being done are wrong and need to change.
Also, let this be clear that I will not condemn people who voted for Obama because, well, it would be hypocritical. Yes, I feel just as dumb as everyone else. He was a fresh candidate with a new outlook that promised us a healthy economy. Had massive stimulus bills and universal health care been on his ticket I would have said screw him and went McCain. If you have not yet seen this movie I recommend it if for nothing else than to give your O-crap-ama lovin' heart a second opinion. I will tell you it is a very one sided video and preaches a lot of conspiracy theory with both credible and non-credible sources. I think some of the analogies made by these people were great, but at the end of the day it is still a rapper trying to tell me information they are not an expert on. Were they instructing me on how to keep my pimp hand strong I would listen, but give me someone with a better vocabulary for my political information. They gave a lot of information that frankly is hard to dig up sometimes with the media licking Obama's shoes (and oh what pretty shoes he has, Michelle must pick his clothes out for him).
At the end of the day this is a must watch, but make sure you have your grains of salt handy. Take the information but leave the conspiracy.

Homosexuality and You: How it Doesn't Effect You
In the last 100 years the United States has made great leaps in the advancement of equal rights and opportunity. We as a people have always been at the forefront of equality pushing to ensure that everyone gets treated fairly. Lately we have fallen behind in our vigilant quest for equality for the sake of fear. The time has come to take another step towards freedom for all people and we faltered and, I believe, failed the gay community. In no way do I ask you to like their lifestyle or support it, but freedom is not about support it is about equality and the ability to do what you desire as long as it is not harmful to another. Do homosexuals marrying harm people? Does it make them bleed? Does it bruise? If two men marry in California does it impact you and your spouse? People make life choices I do not agree with everyday yet I cannot lie and tell you it impacts me. Is the big argument not that it destroys the “sanctity” of marriage? I cannot even tell you what the sanctity of marriage is but I am sure that whatever it is the current divorce rate is destroying it already. Some people make light of marriage and others do it so often it could be considered a hobby; I would claim this is the destroyer of marriage long before homosexuals. Does a woman love less because she happens to love a woman? Is her love something false and she delusional in need of medial attention? If the love is not a lesser love why should the union of the people be lesser?
What about the children you may ask. If two parents love their child should they not be capable of caring for him or her? Single parents litter the United States, yet many of them raise children to be upstanding citizens. Yes, raising a child alone is difficult, but no one tells these parents not to or that they cannot. This would imply that perhaps a single gay parent would create a better family this way the child is not as exposed to the homosexuality as much, but then again would not a child of two homosexual parents grow to be less prejudice and more accepting? If you want examples of poor parenting perhaps you should turn from the gays and look to the streets of your cities. Would efforts to better these kids lives not be more worthwhile than attempting to wrestle children away from gays who may be good parents? Would you leave a child in the street to pull another out of a good home? “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness “ If our founding is based on equality how can we dare be so hypocritical?
