Government Service Will Be Cool Again
- Text size
Joe Davidson
The Washington Post
November 13, 2008
Break out the Ray-Bans — Barack Obama says he wants to “make government cool again.”
- A d v e r t i s e m e n t
But it’s going to take more than shades to turn around an image of government framed by such memorable occasions as President Bush standing on an aircraft carrier before a “Mission Accomplished” banner while the war in Iraq roared on.
Or Bush proclaiming “Brownie, you’re doing a heck of a job” about Michael D. Brown, the head of the Federal Emergency Management Agency during Hurricane Katrina’s deadly assault on New Orleans.
Or the dreadful breakdown in leadership by the White House and Congress before they finally approved a financial rescue package.
“The image of government needs a tune-up, for sure,” said Patricia McGinnis, president of the Council for Excellence in Government.

What is the big deal.
Within too long, the government will be the only expanding business anyway, cool or not. NOT cool.
Probably 30 – 40% of you folks will be spying and reporting on your neighbors.
idiots like the guy who calls himself god (no cap for you buddy!), will be happy to tattle tale on the “infidels” so they can get cleaned out of the way, others because they can’t make ends meet without the Judas silver. (Anybody ever thought about that Judas maybe NEEDED that money).
Reading a lot of these posts, one thing just sticks in my mind:
Divided we fall………
There is too much bickering about non-important issues. Too many want to have their 15 “Andy” minutes.

Fuck the Gov’t….all they do is shit all over the people while the banksters run a muck and lobbyiest line everyones pockets.

Yeah, Alex and the colonel are very engaging. That was an amazing story the colonel told.
November 13th, 2008 at 1:58 pm
i agree this site has went to the crapper

Well if we look at the general population well Obama will get the younger ones fired up to work for the government, too many people chanting yes We Can. Look how Hitler got everyone to agree with him and do all sorts of nasty things, but Hitler like Obama knew how to talk, speak to the people and spin things in the right way with the right help of course.
so many collage kids have drank the Look-aid, and they believe in this man, and not to mention other wor,lkld leaders believe in him and many folks around the world say he is going to be the world president.
Sorry folks but it will be cool for the younger ones to work for the government, and many others trying to make ends med. When survival comes, well people will give up their morals and do what they need too.
That is just fact, so we are all screwed, and only a small amount will acctually fight it all.

when they knock on my door and i shoot them in the face hahahaha

What’s wrong “dontknowdontcare”, publicly educated? I understand, go back to sleep.
November 13th, 2008 at 3:37 pm
oh how “cool” ……they are trying to recreate the next hitler youth group.
November 13th, 2008 at 4:30 pm
You know what’s funny about all this big-brother hubbub? It’s fairly obvious the Feds are trying to employ some Big-Brother institutions, but if the world economy crashes, how exactly will they fund it? Forced labor? That’s been tried before, and it always topples over. History is cyclical, no empire can establish total dominance, they try to take on too much, get too big, and eventually implode. That’s the same thing that’s happening here. There will be a revolution, and we will win, the people always win in the end.

#15, If you have nothing of value to add, just shut the fuck up!!
Misquoting what the banner reads is just an indication of your stupidity!!
Why don’t you just crawl back under whatever rock you crawled out from uner? you miserable piece of shit!!!
November 13th, 2008 at 7:10 pm
Yes thats exactly what we need to know people now were ready to start a revolution thank you alex thank you Jordan maxwell and thank you peter joseph thank you so very fucking much……for leading us away to the slaughterhouse.
November 13th, 2008 at 8:19 pm
Obama himself said he wants to start a youth group, a “National Security Force” under his leadership and is more powerful than our military. Obama wants to place a national ban on guns, this would lead to a situation in which only those in Baracks youth group can have authority and guns. THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT HITLER DID. Our government is prepared, they even have FEMA concentration camps in every state of the us ready to use. “In order to prevent mistakes from happening a second time, we must observe history and our past.” He is not a hero to me. He wants to increase taxes, make the government more powerful.. The government was not meant to be where it is today, where it runs your everyday life.
November 14th, 2008 at 1:13 am
yes #21, that’s precisely what will happen, all black kids love obama so if he tells them to join the army they would right away, they would even kill each other when they’re fighting in line to register to go to iran or syria…on top of that i don’t want the north american union to form and neither should you, canada’s sovereignty will completely be destroyed, if we live till 2012 VOTE someone other than demofrauds or neopublicans…buy 100 packs of DVD’s and start burning good films like zeitgeist or an alex jones documentary and place them on parked cars…make sure you don’t get caught cause you’ll probably be sent to guantanamo bay cause according to the patriot act you’ll be considered a terrorist…i think ron paul wants to say 9/11 was done by neocons but even he is too scared…RESPECT to the good americans, we are the only animal that kills each other and we are so advanced that we should know we shouldn’t, peace and keep spreading the truth

More retarded BS from Alex Jones! Alex Jones’ climate of fear, hate and intolerance is the NWO…
November 14th, 2008 at 3:58 am
Frank you should shut the fuck up, right now.. You are Bullshit and should go and grow up, and get informed or shut the fuck up. You have officially proven you’re a idiot.
Its fear from your crippled perspective because you cant even grasp what the fuck is actually happening. Your perspective has nothing to do with Alex.
November 14th, 2008 at 5:46 am
frank….if you think alex is retarded and full of bs…why the hell are you looking at his site?
you must be a retarded b.s’er….
go back to sleep, or your government job…if he’s so full of it why don’t you go make your own site and try to prove him wrong…oh yeah…cuz that’s just not possible…instead you would rather make asinine comments on his message boards…just to piss normal, intelligent people off.
you are a waste of time…and a waste of skin, sir.
please donate your brain to science so they can see what is wrong with you.
November 14th, 2008 at 5:53 am
and in case you are retarded, let me explain something to you….
see at the end, where it says read article?….that’s what is called a link….if you click on it, you will see that it is a washington post article….alex doesn’t work for the washington post, so how exactly is alex responsible for the article?……they’ve brainwashed you to braindead….go watch some more bill o’reilly….oh yeah, that’s right! even he likes obama as seen on the daily show last night….that’s funny huh?…i wonder what’s so good about obama that he has nothing to say other than he is inexperienced…sounds like an asskisser to me…
November 14th, 2008 at 9:16 am
oh my goodness!!!
November 15th, 2008 at 10:12 am
