Alabama GOP chairman recommends anti-Obama movie 'Dreams From My Real Father' (BBC)

By George Talbot

Bill Armistead, chairman of the Alabama Republican Party, caught the attention of a liberal watchdog group after he recommended the movie 'Dreams From My Real Father' to an Alabama audience.

Armistead, speaking Wednesday to the Eastern Shore Republican Women in Fairhope, discussed the importance of electing GOP nominee Mitt Romney in the November election against President Barack Obama.

“We have to win this election. This is about our country. Our country will not be the same,” Armistead said. “I’m convinced, if Obama wins, our children and grandchildren will not live under the same conditions that we’ve lived in these wonderful years. Obama has a different ideology than we do.”

Armistead suggested that audience members see the movie '2016: Obama’s America,' a documentary by conservative commentator Dinesh D'Souza that is critical of the president.

“If you haven’t seen it, you should,” he said. “But I’m going to tell you about another movie. The name of it is ‘Dreams From My Real Father.’ That is absolutely frightening. I’ve seen it. I verified that it is factual, all of it. People can determine.”

Since "these wonderful years" include the worst economic crisis since the Great Depression, perhaps another description would be more appropriate. And not living under the same conditions would be a huge relief !
