Clearly, Dinesh D'Souza has something wrong with him. He's obsessed for years now about President Obama's relationship with his father, and he's claimed that Obama is destroying America as a demonstration of his father's anti-colonialist beliefs. Now, D'Souza's coming out with a documentary about this, just in time for the presidential election:

Let's for a moment ignore the insane production elements of this trailer: The over-the-top music, the racist overtones, the African-American family that suddenly bursts into fisticuffs over a game of Monopoly at the 1:05 mark. Let's just address the sentence in the middle of the trailer that seems to provide the mission statement for the documentary: "Obama has a dream, a dream from his father, that the sins of colonialism be set right, and America be downsized."

Okay, what? What do they mean by "downsized?" Do they mean to complain that he ended the war in Iraq and is drawing down the war in Afghanistan? Or because we haven't attacked Iran yet? Because when I think of downsizing America, I think of Republicans, who want to gut social services and drastically downsize the scope of our domestic programs. What can they point to in President Obama's first term that would indicate a downsizing of America? I have the terrible feeling that I am going to have to watch this documentary, if just to try to figure out what the fuck this documentary is supposed to be about.
