"[1] Its video was announced to be shot with director Brett Simon on December 9.

[3] The single was released on CD and 7" vinyl on March 3, 2009, in the UK.

[4] The music video features an eight-year-old boy who resembles George W. Bush playing with a miniature world, and throughout the video the boy plays with objects depicting high gas prices, the war in Iraq, the funeral of a soldier, Abu Ghraib prison, the devastation of Hurricane Katrina, deforestation, house foreclosures, gay marriage, and illegal immigration before going to bed in the White House.

It also features Rise Against performing in a miniature White House lawn, which the boy smashes before the end of the video.
