[High Praise! to American Digest]

In the literal sense, it’s just 5 minutes of a guy cementing together concrete blocks to build a wall.
In a larger sense, it’s symbolic of every good, decent, honorable aspect of American existence.
Consider this your Rorschach test.
The fact that this video has been viewed over 700,000 times does NOT bode well for Obama in November.
Either that or there are 700,000 masonry trainees out there.
Just kidding.
* Touch of surgeon.
* Patience of a dentist.
* Sense of a sculptor.
I know one thing – I don’t have the skill to do that. In five minutes, I’d be on the third block. Obama can kiss his A$$!!
It sure ain’t as easy as this guy makes it look! Same goes for framing, for dry walling, for wood carving, for cabinet making. dEar Leader has always had everything done for him, and through affirmative action had doors opened for him that he didn’t earn … which is one of the many reasons he is even more incompetent than Jimmuh. Carter, at least earned his degree in nuclear engineering. What has Obama earned?
That video is practically Zen.
@3 – I know. I should’ve found it boring. There’s no CGI or explosions.
Yet all I could feel was endless admiration for a man who could do the job he was paid to do and do it well.
This guy could have a wall built on the Mexican border in no time
I liked how at the end the last brick fit precisely against that metal brace with no wiggle room. Awesome!
That guy can build my block walls anytime!
that’s awesome.
Reminds me of putting a block wall under my mobile home. and everything I did wrong.ummmm yeah, I…I meant to do that.Yeah that’s it. that’s how it’s done. lol. Nothing like watching a real pro make it look easy.
It’s not like he shaped the bricks here. What about the government bureaucrats who approved and printed the building permit? I think they deserve the lion’s share of the credit for building that.
Psht. He didn’t build that wall.
