7:37 pm
beck watching fixed paranoid populism and rice biting a bullet goes a long way to explaining some of the more extreme views in the tea party movement the media either can't see it or they're complicit or just wildly out of touch i don't know which it is but let me show you the big picture of what's happening here the roots of the tree of radicalism and revolution. this president i think has exposed himself as a guy over and over and over again who has a deep seated hatred for white people or the white culture i don't know what it is this guy is i believe a racist. and the loop. that he. has whatever you want to put it this way doesn't mean. we have to. like.

7:39 pm
white house i have. my own. voice from the past for ed koch. oil millionaire member of the radical anti communist john birch society and. father of charles and di of a well the threat of communism has long since passed it's striking how effective it still remains to instantly demonize opponents as evidence in the descriptions of the climate and healthcare policies and right throughout the tea parties why had the a.n.c. obama spin doctors resorted to the language of the cold war propaganda. and why has it been so effective in causing his styria among tea party go was. curious i went to see my crispin miller n.y.u.
7:40 pm
professor and corporate propaganda expert there are certain techniques that that propagandists really need to use and they're so basic that you know they will leave the scene in arguable to us or we never even notice them but one thing that one must of course is cloak on this message and a kind of moral righteousness. you know we really believe in liberty we believe in free enterprise we hear that all the time well that basically means crony capitalism but it implies something that most americans will you know feel a surge of positive emotion about right now there is a tacit opposition there between free enterprise and communism and that's the other technique that that has to be viewed as you've also got to have enemies demons that service scapegoats and against which you can vent all the angry feelings that the
7:41 pm
propaganda will also insight. for them socialism conjures up this weird and long list of bogeyman obama is associated with bad by the right wing for example he's also associated with was limbs you know there's this myth that he's a muslim and so on it's also black so all these things serve for a highly volatile and irrational minority of the american population. in a way that's just kind of classic propaganda and it's no accident that this serves the interest of the health insurance companies the big pharmaceutical cartel you know the petro chemical interests i mean we could go on or not it suits them fine this is why they've basically encouraged this and this is why they like people like glenn beck and rush limbaugh who are the tribunes of this moment. understanding
7:42 pm
a bit more about how propaganda woods and i went to examine its use as freedom works close to the first ever national tea party in washington d.c. we just speed the government takeover of all the businesses we hear the government takeover of our liberty we've got releasing the constitution and. we have sat at home and not said anything but not believed in what was going on and finally we have done that bob the challenge and come to do something and we're not going to stop. coming. to the ballet were the. very same we got the thunder car.
7:43 pm

7:46 pm
life involved to do that in their economic freedom more importantly the macof. our freedoms having successfully steered protestors to revolt against the entire balmer agenda in the name of freedom faced who was to succeed with the coax and fight. to build a free market movement capable of staging a revolution at the ballot box to find out more i went on to cover as a budding fiscal conservative. my first stop was a training session for tea partiers held by the competitive price institute. what is the theme to the tea party what is the tea party about is it about just opposing this is opposing that opposing this or is there really integrated and that idea i submit to the idea i want to show you one today is the idea of the rights of man the basic issue at stake is the destruction of the rights of those who produce in the united states and the tea parties of course are the battleground we're in today
7:47 pm
we are today as an army we are the thin line between freedom and the status the scope you know they want to create freedom is a wonderful thing to fight for it's time for us to join the army and that's something we always advocated. in nashville i met up with a collection of libertarian groups crossing the country teaching guerilla internet tactics for free market ideals over two hundred years ago guys a group of people just like you did something extraordinary ordinary people doing extraordinary things they were activists just like you i truly believe that they were activists then we are activists now make no distinction about it so what we do we become digital activists we had to fight the media and we learned the media and we manipulate the media it was printing presses then it's the internet now that's
7:48 pm
where we influence the hearts and minds of our fellow citizens the tea party's got us running up the hills america majority is trying to give you the tools the muskets right so. here's what i do i get on amazon i type in liberal books i go through and i say one star one star one star the flipside is you go to a conservative libertarian whatever go to their products and give them five stars ok so literally eighty percent of books i i put a star on i don't read so that's how it works ok this place is all this is where your kids i promise you this is where your kids get information rotten tomatoes flixster was a place where you can rate movies ok so when you type in movies on healthcare or documentaries on health care i don't want to go to come up i don't want michael moore's to come up so i always give bad ratings i spend about thirty minutes a day just so that's guerilla tactics if there's a place to comment a place to rate right a place to share information you have to do it that's how you control the online dialogue give our ideals
7:49 pm
a fighting chance the principles that i believe strongly in that the founders believe strongly in with the idea of individual liberty rule of law limits of governments the free market system their correlations free market religious and personal freedom we lose the free market we will lose personal religious freedom while we fight for. it to the end of the session and suddenly introduce ourselves to the group of rust mike hammer falling into the hands of the lady sitting next to me and i'm just prying i don't blow my cover. i mean. i've been sued off of the nine twelve and the louisville i'm a party express i think a lot of different crosswords movements and events and it's just so say you guys are amazing i mean bring on the second revolution.
7:50 pm
on the right to join the second american revolution be were so radical capitalist revolution was on to why the tea party establishment officially adopted the mantra for the markets it was a stunning comeback for an ideology that seemingly lie in ruins after the mortgage crisis barely one year earlier the symbol of which was federal reserve chairman and champion of free markets alan greenspan orbited missing but the regulation doesn't work you would had an ideology to free competitive markets are by far the on rival way to organize economies pretty if you found a flaw in the reality or in the model that i perceived is the critical functioning structure of the fines how the world works so to speak in other words
7:51 pm
you found that your is your view of the world your ideology was not right it was not working out that precisely tea party backed republican candidates emerged all over the country to contest the two thousand and ten elections promising to stop the energy tax repeal health care and reduce the size of government. well the koch's chip team to support some two dozen tape party candidates as usual their real contribution was behind the scenes. in june at this resort in aspen colorado by hosting a secret strategy session with a network of ultra wealthy donors and powerful allies including glenn beck cording to this letter from charles at the journey participants committed to an unprecedented level of support soon after americans for prosperity announced plans to spend a staggering forty five million dollars on elections they ran ads attacking politicians
7:52 pm
to supporting the obama agenda. bamma tried to hit back accusing aspect of being a corporate front in more than a dozen speeches but if you're in a battleground state right now you are being bombarded with negative ads every single day and nobody knows who's paying for these ads they've got these names like americans for prosperity. in a test kinds known as citizens united supreme court which included two judges who had attended sacred. rule that corporations were free to anonymously invest as much as they wanted in front groups like i have to pay. republican operatives seized upon the decision creating new groups and flooding the airwaves with tens of millions of dollars in ads for unknown. on the grassroots side i have paid dusted off their buses launching their november is coming campaign i use pay and freedom works also use the considerable budgets to try and mobilize the tea party army
7:53 pm
identify your voters get them registered to vote bring them out to vote that's it the tea party was ready to strike hard laugh stand to the last stand i'm not the president no we're not here on the corner in north philadelphia we're down out there in the deep thought out there we have a family operational ball bag that would open if nine of mourning americans for prosperity we don't run and that all day we have our people out there door knocking and we're standing here now and hear that we're going to that we don't like the way you do you want we don't like your beyond america we don't like your pot these and we're take it back on november thank you very much. well this morning it is being called a g.o.p. sweep and a tea party title away in the biggest why found for either party since nineteen forty eight the new one hundred twelfth congress will feature forty two party members a lot of libertarian leaning individuals within that tea party movement especially
7:54 pm
when it comes to taxes and over regulations they end up to this agenda that is taking us in the wrong direction it's a message of. limited constitutional government in principle excessive government regulation in the huge out of control rules that washington has become. there's a new day you know the republicans took control of the house in november two thousand and ten very anti government agenda in fact one of their agenda items is to you know take out full government agencies like the part of education part of energy to . when you have politicians elected who want to shut down the government it sets a pretty interesting tone for the debate for me this newfound zeal for the coax radical free market ideology to use the real we have a. of the tape party movement it has nothing to do with people and yield cos trains or waving flags or holding protest of things but it is
7:55 pm
a revolution that has everything to do with hidden corporate agendas complicit media players season propagandists a highly coordinated network of free market groups and most of all a pair of brothers with a dream to create a privatized america the american dream of free enterprise capitalism is alive and well. and so what does the american dream mean. american dream to me sure one word freedom if any american dream means defending our own life and our freedom and our liberties that have made this country great to me the american dream is to live in peace and prosperity and freedom and a government under socialism is not a government a freedom what about the freedom of individuals to make up their own mind through reason and rational to bikes what about the freedom to trust the grassroots
7:56 pm
movements such as that and not tools of the wealthy and what does the sky on which this is happened cite about the state of american democracy. i think it's a serious threat to a democracy and i think people are mostly unaware of it if not completely unaware of the threat they're very much a unaware of the front groups and aware of how their thoughts are being manipulated and how their actions are actually being manipulated in many cases. i think they're unaware that we to a large extent have a plutocracy in this country or at least an emerging one rather than democracy and i think that's because of the the rise of power and influence of corporations and the way that they've been able to use p.r. p.r. tactics and propaganda to get what they want they want we are drowning in propaganda drowning in it. and i'm not speaking
7:57 pm
figuratively i think it's threatening our lives it's gets cutting off our air it's making real democracy. all but impossible it has brought the planet to the point of. ecological destruction it's had no positive consequences whatsoever because it doesn't serve the people it serves other interests i've come to believe more and more as i've been studying this this problem that the real currency in democracy is honest information that if you are on a mass scale able to pump out false information then the whole democratic system kind of breaks up. and yet
7:58 pm
these people have a perfect right to do it and hide their involvement in. and now you have very motivated people out across the country who are activists who are willing to fight for what they think is right for themselves but in fact is forwarding a corporate agenda that is to stop regulations and to stop taxes and they're not going to stop in two thousand and ten they will continue through the two thousand and twelve elections as the tea party has marched on to two thousand and twelve and the goal of taking out president obama and installing politicians who fight for the right to free markets my only message to them is to be careful what you wish for because you just might get us. i i. i
8:00 pm
video on demand. and. now in the palm of your. question. are they going to develop a nuclear weapon. well just because the us can't prove iran has dubious plans in mind doesn't mean will stop plotting against them from sanctions to iran a phobia american politicians are drawing the battle lines and asking countries to pick sides. we will be strengthening our presence in the asia pacific. and iran isn't the only country the u.s. is getting defensive with china is another target the american military is aiming out so is this the new cold war. and the u.s. isn't the only one flexing its strong arm these days the new.
