Generation Chickenhawk – Young Republicans

I like this video – Max Blumenthal took a camera into a convention of young Republicans. The mendacity sort of makes you sick to your stomach.

I can remember not understanding the Young Republicans back in 1968 when I saw these crew-cutted guys trying to act like activists. Now, unfortunately, I understand them better. They are sad cases. They are white Uncle Tom’s, suffering from some kind of Stockholm Syndrome, where they kiss the hand that would destroy them. They have, through some perverse reaction to stress, learned to love their enslavers.
