. . . (that is, of course, Warner Bros.) was churning out soul-stirring fare such as YANKEE DOODLE DANDY, Tinsel Town's insidious House of the Groaning Fat Cat continued to foist off counter-productive "mixed messages" mislabeled "morale boosters" throughout the USA's World War Two Era. Blatantly Pro-Axis during the run-up to the Pearl Harbor Sneak Attack, this Pachyderm Party Propaganda Arm tried to ward off Public repudiation by becoming slightly more subtle following the Day of Infamy fruitlessly warned of by the always eponymous Warner Bros. Take ODE TO VICTORY, for instance. This musical short nefariously melds the Union's beloved "Battle Hymn of the Republic" with the Treasonous Racist Traitors' vile "Dixie" campaign yelp during a brief montage about The War to Free Enslaved Black People. This is tantamount to blending "America, the Beautiful" with one of Der Fuhrer's Nuremberg Rally chants! Then, in its final chorus bit, the GONE WITH THE WIND Fat Cat losers force a Black Man to close ODE TO VICTORY with lyrics akin to "K. Smith's" recently discovered racist ditties. Taken as a whole, ODE TO VICTORY is a shameful and sneaky attempt by the Racist Pachyderm Studio to prolong "Jim Crow" values under the guise of "Patriotism."
