Thread: Obama appar. disturbed by the "We the People" vid.

Hey while he is there maybe Basso will ask Obama for his birth certificate!

AirborneSapper said:

People are P.O. and I mean P. O. ... you dont believe me, go try to pick up Ammo and listen to the mumblings of the crowd ... I said crowd because these places are packed

I know its true, and I am so glad to hear this. We WILL take our country back, and we WILL remain free. Period.

Jerry Doyle said that Basso is going to the White House to meet Obama tomorrow (Friday), and he (Basso) will call into the radio show after that.

I hope Basso stands his ground and doesn't sell out.

Both videos of his are at the source link.

YouTube star summoned to White House?
Promises radio talk show first interview afterwards

The man who created two phenomenally successful "We The People" YouTube videos urging Americans to stand up against Congress and reclaim their republic now – or perhaps lose it forever – reportedly has been summoned to the White House by President Obama to discuss the subject matter of the short films.

Bob Basso, who posts videos under the name funbobbasso on YouTube, has created videos in which he portrays Thomas Paine, author of the "Common Sense" pamphlet that made the case for independence during the American Revolution.

Basso, whose website offers his services as a motivational speaker, uses the YouTube presentations to condemn "non-representing representatives" and warns, "Only when they feel the almighty wrath of 'We The People' marching in the streets from California to New York shouting 'We're mad as hell and we want our country back' will they get the message they work for you."

He was scheduled this week to appear on the the "Jerry Doyle Show" when he told the radio host that Obama had personally invited him to meet in the White House "to discuss the disturbing nature of the videos."

According to a spokesman for Doyle's show, at the time when Basso was supposed to be calling in for the show, he was unavailable. Basso reached the show several hours later, explaining he had been flooded by media calls and literally was unable to call out.

The result, the spokesman said, was that Basso promised to provide Doyle with the first exclusive interview after he meets with Obama, provided the invitation still stands after the meeting was leaked to the press.

The spokesman said information about the meeting has not been made public, and show producers are waiting to see what develops. A WND message left for Basso was not immediately returned.

The Doyle show reaches about 3 million listeners each week, according to Talkers Magazine, and is the fastest growing show in Talk Radio Network Enterprises' history with more than 240 stations.

In his second video, which has been seen more than 1.1 million times, Basso challenges people to let Congress know their displeasure by sending tea bags. It is embedded here:



He criticizes Congress for approving the "largest spending bill in history without reading it" and criticizes American citizens, because "you did nothing."

He raises the issue of billions of dollars for benefits for illegal aliens, the exportation of U.S. jobs overseas and others.

"If your self-serving Congress were a business they'd all be in jail now," he said.

"Wake up, America. While you were playing with the toys of your consumer wealth, you lost much more than your bloated economy of living beyond your means. You lost your representative democracy. Your servants have become your masters. Taxation without representation is tyranny," he said.

He's equally unhappy with Americans in the first video, embedded here:

In that piece he warns of the problem of supporting the rest of the world while America needs to be rebuilt.

Referring to "progressives," he said, "We had another word in 1776. We called them traitors."

Basso is the author of the best-selling book "This Job Should Be Fun" along with 10 other books, including "Lighten Up Corporate America!"

A former award winning news director for NBC TV and visiting professor at UCLA, Basso has a Ph.D in communications.

Doyle's distinctive repertoire includes former Wall Street insider, TV star and jet pilot. He has starred in many made-for-TV movies, but is best known as the character Michael Garibaldi on the Emmy winning Sci-fi television series "Babylon 5," which ran for five years.

He’s a former U.S. Navy officer who used to anchor the Channel 2 News in the late 1960’s before turning to acting on the popular TV series Hawaii 5-0.

Now at the age of 70, Bob Basso is lighting up the internet with his fiery portrayal of Thomas Paine.

“Someone said, ‘Bob you know the great hope for American democracy is the YouTube because our government isn't working.’ So I did the first Tom Paine and we got close to three million hits and that brought a whole rush from the media.â€

I TRULY HOPE HE KICKS ASS

Basso was interviewed on the Doyle show today. In a nutshell, Basso has not been to the White House yet, he is waiting to see if the invitation is valid and clarified. If the invitation is true and he does end up going to the WH, he will not be intimidated but he has no intention of attacking the president as he has respect for the office.

Basso strongly believes that we have to return to the principles upon which our country was founded; the greater issue is we're losing our democracy. He wants to rise above the left and right. He believes there has to be a large media event to shake up the politicians -- and specifically mentioned a 2-4 million person march down Pennsylvania Avenue in DC.

Question is will middle America get out of their La-Z boy recliners and take a few days off to march in DC. Would the politicans just forget about this after everyone left? He doesn't know the answer to this question, but said there needs to be a large media event. He said the tea parties have opened the door.

Great video. Thanks for posting!

The video was played on one of our local talk radio show Friday morning. They had a long discussion about the whole thing. Lots of phone call response.

That is the question. We are both going to the local Tea Party here in Houston and have even volunteered to help work at the event.

My wife is formerly from Argentina and she was so embarrassed that when the government took all of their bank accounts in 2000 all the people did there was go to the streets and beat on pans. She certainly hopes that Americans have the guts to do more to take our country back. She is certainly ready and has only been a US citizen for 2 years.

For 3 generations my family has fought in 3 different wars to assure this country remained free. I am not going to sit back and watch it be destroyed.
