Waiting for the day when...

I was watching ASp3 the other day and thought came to me during the Galt's Speech scene.

How long after the release of the DVD/BR before some video tech somewhere uses the scene to preempt one of Dear Leader's speeches?

Waiting on the day.

    We can still dream, can't we? It would be a beautiful thing to watch. The left would go nuts trying to figure out how to stop it quick enough. Luv the thought.

    "Ladies and gentlemen, Mr. Obama will not speak to you today. His time is up. I have taken it over..."

    During the Northeast Blackout of 1965, I understood several people tuned in their radios expecting to hear, "Ladies and Gentlemen, Mr. Johnson will not speak to you tonight..."

    I too think this is a lovely vision. But then, I think, "But it would probably be an extreme socialist or a radical Muslim who would come on the air and speak at us." and my bright dream collapses.

      Oh, you mean that just when you thought Obama was being preempted... he wasn't?

        Yeah. It is like "I would like to re-write the Constitution to strengthen individual liberties and limit government." but if we actually had a Constitution Convention what we would end up with is "Communist Mannifesto". Sigh.

    Sounds good -- but if it happens, I don't want to be at the scene, because the Secret Service will be looking for somebody to shoot.

      I'm not too sure about that. Some of those guys are actually quite intelligent, just ask someone that's recently retired. They are just doing their job.
