. >> george orwell is probably spinning in his grave at the abuse of language. are i agree with john and i lost a lot of nope, my boy paul ryan. he and the republicans should unite behind a single word. freeze. just freeze the budget. don't get into the debates about minutia which only reconcile up people like mark. freeze the darn thing. a real freeze. let the percent of federal spending go down to 18% or 19% as a percentage of gdp and we will boon. >> i don't know if mark is the only one reconciled by this. i suspect rick is a little reconciled at this as well. what do you think, rick? >> it is not about the how much or how little. it is the what he is doing. i will read you one sentence that tells you everything you need to know about the budget. one short sentence on page 56 of the ryan budget that reads this budget proposes to reduce the federal auto flat th fleety 20% eastbound including the department of defense. okay to cut cars across the federal budget but can't cut 20% of the automobiles sitting outside the pentagon. that is the falsity of the budget.

the united states you know to surveil his own people so it's really a police it's really george orwell's one thousand nine hundred four stop in front of a sad and surreal it is scary it's really surreal is the perfect word of surreal it's it's unimaginable but as you'd like you said we talked about as you scare people into they're out to get us this is for your own protection you know they make us. you know scared of one another scared of what our neighbors do and scared of you know the people who moved in down the street and what they're up to disappointed with what talk to plan a movement managed or rather failed to achieve for the first time it showed that people can come together people of all walks of life you know there there were doctors in there there were unemployed people there are teachers or students there's. you know we're all kind of blue collar white collar workers and they're saying yeah we are you know the ninety nine percent and we are you know we're being exploited but jeff it may have the opposite effect i mean it took years for people to feel this unity to get togeth

be a democratic association some citizens of that union are less equal than others to use george orwell's terms they would never do this kind of thing to citizens of germany remains to be seen whether they would even do it to citizens of spain or italy i think to a certain extent this is a controlled experiment to see what will happen but and it's not going well for them right now but i think that you you're looking at a two tiered european union that could break apart at any time if this keeps up and it's reason for concern and reason for optimism to in the sense that if that means a return to democracy if it can be handled well maybe that's the best thing we can see happen now so we're just going to keep an eye on the situation and see how this all plays. it it seems fragile last ten seconds richard is it your sense as well. i think it's fragile and i think it's frightening. because i think it shows us that our financial elites are willing to take much more draconian measures against a democracy than i personally thought they were willing to do and i think it means we have to be on guar

supposedly liberal city had begun to act like little rock in 1958 and the mayor was sounding like orwell. he was a serious intellectual problem but what bob bork asked them to indicate to the legal position which is mine as well in a way that would appear to give support to finance and violence. the climatic meeting was held in the attorney general's office of the last day the united states could file a brief. copies had been printed. they were ready to go. by requiring his lifelong support of the civil rights movement but also opined that the brief was legally correct. jay stanley the assistant attorney general for civil rights argued strenuously against filing. he made three points. one, the brief was incoherent, no one could tell what the legal standard contained. number two, the brief was profoundly misguided and would damage the cause of the civil rights for schoolchildren. number three there was no need to file a brief because the civil rights division already had been implementing its standard for more than a decade. he did not notice that only one of these three mutually inconsis

george orwell and others called him one of the, you know, greatest writers of our time.ut then he turned into a painter as well. i mean, this man had no end of talents. and what you've got here in a sort of a complex colorful way is a writer expressing himself in another medium. i mean, if all writers could paint like this there'd be an awful lot of interesting pictures like this. so have you thought what it might be worth? man: i've absolutely no idea. appraiser: well, it was a very generous housewarming present. it's worth 2,000 pounds. man: really! fantastic! i would have never expected that. thank you very much.

. >> i think it was orwell that said about the gandhi revolution that it works because in those cases in which the adversary has has a line they're unwilling to cross in repressing. in situations like china and syria where there is apparently no line that the authorities won't cross, it seems less obvious to me that a nonviolent revolution succeed. and -- will succeed. and the second point was one of the consequences i think of the second world war -- >> uh-huh. >> was a big contribution to the destruction of the colonial system. >> uh-huh. >> it wasn't just the nonviolent action after the war, but it was the war itself. >> uh-huh. >> anyway, i'd like to hear your -- >> i'll start with second because it's easier. the same study looks, mara -- [inaudible] civil resistance work is the name of the study. it looks also on the consequences of the change, and it looks for the consequence of nonviolent and violent social change. and it says if you're doing a nonviolent struggle, you are about 42% of chances to end up in democracy. and if you're doing the violent struggle, it's 4%. so it's li

it's amazing, though, to think that orwell writes this in 1949 before any of this technology was. we were getting closer in the 1970's when i was a kid, and now we're there, though. the technology is there. so while technology's not an enemy and technology is not something we can or should ban, technology makes your privacy more important. it makes the defense of your privacy something that needs to be guarded more jealously because your government now does have the technology to see your every movement, to monitor your every move. so do your enemies, for that matter. so you can imagine you don't want the police g.p.s. tagging you. you probably don't want your political opponents tagging your car either. so there have to be some protections of privacy. the issue and discussion of privacy has been one that conservatives and people in the right haven't always been as unified. libertarians on the right have been better with these issues, and some conservatives have as well. but the question has always been do you have a right to privacy? i have always said sure, you have a right to p

they're dying because these harsh dictatorships from orwell's 1984 are not delivering. the reason this is not a viable system is because 30% of the people are starving. so the more they can squeeze people in political ideology and the special space but they can't see that. same like that in iran. the roads are bad in iran. the country has a lot of oil and it into should be spread out but the roads are bad. so the common people have a little political space to build a movement about the tangible bread and butter issue. the whole arab spring was started bay vendor setting himself on fire because he couldn't sell food, and because his dignity was destroyed by being beaten bay fee money police ma'am, but the whole thing started as bread and butter issues. you mobilize people. but when you start bread and butter issue protest and the country have 25% of the people unemployed, then you can grow numbers tremendously fast, once you grow numbers you become a movement, and once you become a movement, you can try to change with the government or negotiate with the government. deps

i think it was orwell that said about the gandhi revolution that it works because in those cases in whichadversary has a line they're unwilling to cross and pressing and in situations like china and syria, where there apparently is no line, that the authorities won't cross, it seems less obvious to me that a nonviolent revolution will succeed. the second point was one of the consequences i think of the second world war was a big contribution to the destruction of the colonial system. it wasn't just the nonviolent action after the war, but it was the war itself. anyway, i would like to hear your -- with the second because it's easier. the same study looks, mara - -- resistance work is the name f the study. like the reason why -- it is clear. once you unleash -- once people learn they can take their politicians -- pick a their politicians accountsable, they can do it again and again and again. and once libyans learn they can take gaddafi and rape him and kill him in front of the cameras. the second thing is because these movements are winning when they become mainstream and majority. ry unl
