Obama inauguration song calls for the overthrow of private property.
youtube ^ | 1-20-2009 | Pete Seeger & Bruce Springsteen

Posted on 01/23/2009 9:21:11 PM PST by freedomwarrior998

I've been looking and I haven't heard this mentioned yet. During the Obamunist coronation ceremony lefties Pete Seeger and Bruce Springsteen were singing "This Land is your Land."

To my utter shock and amazement, they actually brought out a verse that is hardly ever sung in public. This verse openly calls for the overthrow of private property.

Watch from 2:42 on the video, here are the lyrics:

There was a big high wall there that tried to stop me;
Sign was painted, it said private property;
But on the back side it didn't say nothing;
That side was made for you and me.

The crowd and the red chorus in the background gleefully sung along as the communists openly revealed their intentions.

Folks, we are in for a long road ahead.

None of this is shocking. Pete Seeger is a self-described Communist, and he belonged to the party. The other guy is just stupid ~ a mere entertainer into it for the girls, booze and dope.

Still, neither one of them is going to let you share in their bounty except at the point of a gun. That's 'cause they don't really believe in Communism either ~ they just want the power and the girls, booze and dope.

The problem is the President shares in their beliefs.

Can you remember the last time that an inauguration had Communists singing about the destruction of private property rights? I don't even think Klintoon went that far.

That's Most of Washington D.C. at this point. Birds of a feather flock together.

Original WG lyrics. No big surprise. Woody was a well known communist. Pete is handing over to Bruce because his days are numbered.

Bruce will carry the “torch” until he finds another weak-kneed guitar strummer to carry the “message”.....

"Communism doesn't work because people like to own stuff."


My Frank Zappa trumps a Seeger and Springsteen anyday.

Like Peter Paul and Mary he is one of the undead.

The Clintons were hanging condoms on the White House Christmas tree so I really don't have any idea what songs they were singing. Probably bawdy ones.

Concerning the concert, that was a concert.

Concerning Commies, it's a mental illness ~ they know that now ~ still, they persist in it.

The only effective treatment is called the Rosenburg Process.

Seeger is being his old commie self, but it's always hilarious to hear Springsteen singing this kind of crap. Mr. Blue Collar who is a multimillionaire with multiple houses, at least one of which is (or was) in Beverly Hills...singing about outlawing private property.

I mean, the utter audacity of these people is overwhelming. I would love to interview him live on TV. It wouldn't be Charlie Rose time, you can be sure. (I have respect for some of his oldest music and his live performances and cover versions, so it wouldn't be just bashing.)

Springsteen needs someone to throw this stuff at him and say "Come on, Bruce, what's this crap?" He's never had to answer a hard question from anybody, ever.

"Springsteen needs someone to throw this stuff at him and say "Come on, Bruce, what's this crap?"

And you would expect a logical answer?

Me and Willie the Pimp were checkin’ out the Hot Rats and eatin’ yellow snow when Suzy Creamcheese came by (what’s got into her, anyway?)

But the real question, before the Apostrophe is -

What will you do if the people you knew,
Were the plastic that melted, and the chromium too?

Zappa also said, in reference to Socialism and Communism:

“The first two words a baby learns are “MaMa” and “Mine!”

No, he'd give some droning BS about "Look, I just see families trying to put food on the table..." blah blah blah.

What else could one expect from a white middle class suburban kid who has tried to put across that he's some kind of street urchin who made good by struggling up from the gutter?

Maybe we should start an “Armed-to-the-Teeth Militant Libertarian Rock-n-Roller” Ping List.
