Years ago, people respected world leaders.
Nowdays all we have is "leaders" and songs like this are just what they deserve at best.
The natives are getting restless.
europe is a sideshow.
g-pap is a joke, l-pap is a dope.
real action is in middle east — will america and israel tag team iran...
the same hawks who came out for that stupid waste of money in 2003 (remember those weapons of mass destruction??) are making hawkish noises over iran being a "threat"
http://azizonomics.com/2011/11/08/jeffrey-goldberg-calls-for-war-with-iran/
G-Pap's a cunt.
But he offered to give his people the vote. Then he got the rug pulled out from under him by Obama and Merkozy.
So what can you do?

"Rock me Papandreou !"
What do you mean "we," paleface?
Every flock of Lemmings has a leader which they will all follow when he decides to run of a cliff.
By "we" he means the rest of the flock.
Years ago.... and today the word "Leader" is used perhaps too loosely?
Years ago, world leaders deserved respect.
Like Louis XVI and Marie..Right?
Years ago leaders earned respect. Today? Not so much.
Yeah, we really respected Nixon. Whatch u talkin about Willis?
Don't forget Jimmy Carter...
He's begining to appear as a bit of a profit right about now.
He said 'profit'.
There's no such thing as a "world leader."
How's that for respect?
Why do you people need leaders, I manage just fine governing myself. Get a life you can do it
G-Pap is a world leader?
On THIS planet?
Thats because all good one where killed.
Nah they have always been making fun of them.
Yep, stupid people respected world leaders and will continue to do so.
Respect is earned, not inherited or elected into thereof. Oh, most people think it can be bought. Even a blue light special. Go ahead, buy it, the fed will pay for it.
It is so stoopid,it is silly and is sick. I've shit my pants so many times in the past years, I want brown underwear.
Ahh, brown underwear. That would solve a problem...
world is changing.
we didn't have iPads before
in a few more years all the dictionary will revise the definition of "Democracy"
Please petition for adding the word 'democfarcy' to the dic in 2012
They were even dumber then.
Can we please stop calling them "leaders"? They never were, never will be and never we supposed to be. They are supposed to be our "representatives". They are in fact representatives, just not ours.
Well now, not here in the USA. Here, the Congress are our representatives, the Courts are our judges, and the President is, in fact, due to Executive Privalege, our leader.
Sorry...
Department of Justice falls under which of the three wings of the US Government (executive, legislative, or JUDICIAL)? If you said Executive, give yourself one point.
Respect must be earned.
And I thought I would see the Vogelfänger - Pa Pa Pa Pa Pa pageno!
I do not know who is worse, the people or their leaders... Probably they deserve each other.
Leaders zorba, world leaders, not world class assholes. I loved the song...oh yes and Fuck him!!!! hard on the ass!!!!! that's what he deserves, not respect c'mon Zorba.
Years ago I respected Reagan as a great leader, but his idea of the 'Plung Protection Team' may have been the vehicle that ultimately does in the country he was trying to save. Very ironic if you ask me. the security blanket of having the stock market do well at all costs is a simplistic pagan financial spell that is worthless, yet we'll have our financial witch doctors swear of it's effectiveness of bringing us prosperity. No wonder modern society sought to discredit 'white magic' & 'black magic' and our Christian sensibilities brought us to great scientific knowledge and accomplishments. But our spoiled and corrupted society has us rejecting our monotheistic origins and we have gone back to the slavery of paganism and the occult of worshipping pure numbers and formulas like modern derivatives, as if complication alone was enough to qualify as solidly reasonable science.
True.. When's the last time you heard something truely profound like quotes from 17th and 18th century? In the 20th Century, those quotes are few and far between.. At least, from world leaders.. The implication is fairly simple..
We owe G-Pap credit: the referendum was a brief shining moment o democracy in this whole slam slut Euro bender.
clueless idiot. it was the excuse for stocks falling because of fallout from MF. never was going to be a referendum.
Somebody got up on the wrong side of the bed this morning...
What referendum?
well - the primary dealers beg to differ - they say thank you for the drama and the float up
So, according to the clip, holding a referendum about the potential slavery option was a bad undemocratic idea because eurozone leaders said so?
You noticed that too?
thought that was odd as well. looks like something the ECB/IMF/EU would put together.
Red pills painted and sold as blue... or was it blue pills painted and sold as red...
You will eat your wastes
So, according to the clip, holding a referendum about the potential slavery option was a bad undemocratic idea because eurozone leaders said so?
Absolutely it's bad, and cowardly. It's like papa buying a house, boat, car and hookers. When he goes belly up and the creditors are at the door, he decides that his family should vote on whether or not they move.
They want us to return to the era of debtors prison, even if we return to the era of post WWI were punitive actions slammed the Germans even more after the war it would be a suicidal trend. We need to return to the idea of being forced to eat one's investment losses and have no ultimate last resort lender. If we had the huge spector of failure looming over each investment decision we would not have as much wreckless abandon in investments like the ones promoted by the government, like the house-for-everyone-idea.
It is sad what is happening all over this planet. Mother Earth a little weary lately.
That's what happens when people abandon responsibility for their own lives, delegating it to criminals.
Funny, I'm pretty sure Papandreou's exact feelings toward Greek citizens were the same... Fuck you my little pawns in the game of bald face lies to feather the nests of the oh so few.
Falco! Where have you been all these years!!!
Well, he's dead
no wonder he don't sing no more!
OH!!! I didn't know..........
FALCO was the Man. May he Rest in Peace.
Hallo ~ Vienna Calling!!
Cleaning boat bottoms.

Simplistic video- they make it sound like the Euro summit was to save Papandreous ass (banks anyone?). They should do less music and look at the real culprits of the crisis. Like Obama, Papanderou is a cluless puppet way out of his league. Only someone with strong understanding of the crisis and the philosophy of liberty can straigthen out the mess and most importantly INSPIRE and LEAD .
Lighten up, Émile. It was a knocked out video with a pop culture hook. Not a piece of political philosophy for deconstruction.
While I agree with your premise. It is cheap entertainment. I understand Zola's frustration. Too many people are completely oblivious to the real criminals, and they try to simplify things by focusing on the pawns.

another ebullient day in the stock market. Since the Oct 4 low 20 up days and 10 down days. Market has gone up 200 points. I appreciate discounting future inflated cash flows, but such assumes a purchasing capacity keeping pace. In the stagflationary environment ahead (here now in fact), valuations might be getting ahead of themselves. We shall see. Might be another 6 months of melt up before we get evidence. Oh, and G Pap must be the happiest man on earth. He is out of the shit fest with plenty of moulah intact. All politicians are cunts.
Thats because all good one where killed.
Who needs TV when you have ZH for entertainment.
H/T one of the ZH commenters posted the video here a few days ago....Always Early!
Looks like the banksters have started a full-court press on propagandizing the democratic process in sovereign Greece. Fuck you banksters just doesn't have the ring of Pa, Pa, Papandreou. I'm sure a clever Zerohedgy can make a competing anti-bankster music video.

Cracks me up. You have OWS, the Tea party, riots all over the world and yet nothing changes. They ramp the market up daily just to rub it in our faces. Saying "look mother fuckers you can have your little "revolutions". In the mean time we are going to show you that they mean nothing, that we have the real power"." And no matter what you do we will continue to tranfer the wealth of the nation to us".
Very sad indeed.
that "bank transfer" day was wonderful for the big banks also; they have been increasing ever since the no-profit accounts were cleaned out
Unfortunately we didn't call shenanigans on our leaders years ago as they were embarking on all these inept shortsighted policies. Their erosion of respect has been years in the making, it didn't happen overnight.
He can talk! I can sing!

Not that I want to defend G=Pap but that clip had to be paid by some banksters or PR dept of EU.
So, according to the clip, holding a referendum about the potential slavery option was a bad undemocratic idea because eurozone leaders said so?
I think the clip was parodying the changes and rhetoric from the mood of a PM who lost his grip on the situation.
What I saw demonstrated in the clip is a leader (like many, including Obama) who is so quick to change on a whim, to go back from bankster buddy to man of the people at the snap of a finger, and change back again (only difference is here in USA, no one notices our leaders lying to us. See: Leslie Stahl). I found it to be a hilarious parody.
He decides on democracy, and the Central Bankers and their government lackeys say, "No, Fuck you, Papandreou". I mean, that is EXACTLY what happened.
Question is, will it happen here?
So, you're saying that a member of the elite of central bankers actually made this clip singing to the tune of his favourite 80s hit?
Which one?
The song was pretty popular in Germany back in the day. The video does seem to roughly follow their talking points.
It was pretty big in the U.S., too -- in 1986. (I remember it well. R-R-R-Rock me, Amadeus!!)
...and Falco was from Austria, not (West) Germany [as it was known, back then]. Falco spoke German, because German is Austria's official language.
I wonder what would happen if we had a "vote of confidence" in USA. We could form a new government just like Greece and Italy.
ES is at a crossroads. It is actually coldest right before the dawn. I used to ride a motorcycle to work, and when I used to go in early to get a good workout in before work (I would ride at around 4AM), it was way warmer than when I went in for normal work schedule (riding around 6AM).
And so it is with market turns,

juvenile.
this is way larger than papandreou.
even harmful, turning papandreou into the convenient scapegoat to divert attention from tptb.
i agree with tptb pr.
War with Iran is forthcoming, comrades.
Yup. MSM is right on cue -- beating the drums of war. Won't be long now. Bullish for coffin makers.
monkeys love war, like an infection
for their ignorance.
so much easier than thinking.
drink the puss of war and be
your own worst enemy.
deliver the tragedy to
your children and then
beat them. learn to hate yourself
for the "money" you don't understand
or posses. live for the illusions of
your betters and pray they tolerate
your grovelling.
.
there, a poem for the economy.
Nope, there's simply no money for another extravagant war.
it is the fiat money system. hmmm..
remember? it does not work / add up. it
is a scam and an impossibility derived from
usury and will always result in re-bellion.
nothing can fixed that which is FUCKED from
the start. it is not about persons, it is about
the sick and tortured rules of law that turn
men into tools and subhuman debt slaves.
whatever, good luck trashing and slashing at
shadows. your children will not recognize you,
nor you them. we could easily be suffering from
collective global aphasia.
.
Aphasia ( /??fe???/ or /??fe?zi?/) is an impairment of language ability. This class of language disorder ranges from having difficulty remembering words to being completely unable to speak, read, or write.
Aphasia disorders usually develop quickly as a result of head injury or stroke, but can develop slowly from a brain tumor, infection, or dementia, or can be a learning disability such as dysnomia.[1]
The area and extent of brain damage determine the type of aphasia and its symptoms. Aphasia types include Broca's aphasia, non-fluent aphasia, motor aphasia, expressive aphasia, receptive aphasia, global aphasia and many others (see Category:Aphasias).
Medical evaluations for the disorder range from clinical screenings by a neurologist to extensive tests by a language pathologist. [1]
Not sure about that Aphasia crap but a fiat monetary system controlled by central banking based upon a fractional reserve lending paradigm should be deemed illegal and removed from the face of the earth.
Bad week for Pa people-JoePa and G-Pa.
Sandusky followed a Greek tradition and a tragedy has befallen Happy Valley.
This is a Pap Smear campaign dammit!!
Well, if you hadn't said it I was going to... :-)
Is this real krautrock?
How about some "Du Hast" [RAMMSTEIN] for your tea?
I refuse to call any of them "leaders" or "officials" any more. They are "elected this" or "elected that". Mainly I just refer to them as fooking idiots.
and that would be putting it politely ...
Word has it that Papandreou was told he would be murdered if he didn't go along with the proposal.
Splendid !!!
In that case, allow me to present...

I don't get it.
Well, back in my day, the song came after they stung up the bastards. Today, he'll get a bonus.
WTF
If you’ve got to prevent people from voting, you have totalitarian government. The definition of Stalinism is that the people don’t get to vote. In Russia’s case, the tyrant was Stalin. In the case of Europe, it’s the European Union, whose officials are just the paid stooges of the banks.
The system is no longer working and the greatest danger that the Money Power faces is the people – who might object.
It has been proven before, and it is being proven again, of the utter incapacity of an irresponsible super-Government, composed of a group of International Bankers, to manage the world’s financial affairs.
And, once again, just as in the 20s and 30s, the people are suffering from the terrible consequences attending the supremacy of the banking interests over the citizenry.
Only this time round, the intensity of economic disaster has greatly increased. Yet, through ownership of the Press, the money industry has converted its own opinion into the purported opinion of the general public, to the point that many will denounce the message – even one that calls for a vote of the people - if the messenger has been duly discredited.
conclusion. fuck the people, there. that is the system
for now. accept it or be an enemy of the "money". your
only friend.
hahahahwwwhwwhwhhahahahahahah.....
There are no "leaders" anymore. It's a global money-churning industry run by the elite. The so-called "leaders" are puppets on a stage, acting out the script of the NWO handed to them by the puppet-masters. That is all.
There is no honour, no patriotism, no integrity to be found - anywhere.
Pappy is a joke and a poster boy for all of our "leaders".
We are all Greeks and we are all screwed.
fuck you bitchez
