“The other side?” — 7 Comments

  1. Looks like a girl. Reminds me of the picture of the “boy” that hacked into Sarah Palin’s email account during the election.

    I wonder how much Acorn paid “him” to do this.

    it was 500 and it was SEIU not ACORN 🙂

  3. This week Glenn Beck on Fox is connecting–in a major way– some dots about our “Dear Leader” & Co. and their plans for us and America and—although he is not staid and polished, and you might not like Beck’s delivery style (personally, I do like it)–he is right on the money, and is pointing to the same kinds of things I have been pointing out here for months, and is getting the word out to millions of viewers each day.

    As I have argued here, most of America is using the customary, but fatally wrong “template” of the usual and ”good faith” to evaluate Obama and, by doing so, is blind to what is really happening. Moreover, since we have had no major instances of real “bad faith” to freedom, democracy and the Constitution by a President, no history of tyranny or dictatorship in this very fortunate country,* and no personal experience with how such a dictatorial regime is, step-by-step, constructed, we are almost incapable of believing that such a thing could happen here in the U.S., or of picking up and recognizing the signs. Yes, Obama’s approval ratings are slowly declining, as is support for his programs, but this does not mean that there has been the kind of major “revolution” in peoples thinking about Obama, his motives, his actions and his real plans that is absolutely essential if we are to be able to see, correctly evaluate and combat what is happening.

    We are blind to the new structure that is being constructed–right before our eyes–around us, although refuges from communism and dictatorship here in the U.S. who post on the Web are increasingly alarmed at what their “antennae”–a sense vitally necessary in and sensitized to dictatorships–are picking up.

    I realize that I am largely “preaching to the choir” here, but I do not know what else to do, other than to join in various protests, or to go over to some of the more liberal blogs and argue my points–my guess though is that, having drunk deeply of the Kool Aid, few of them will be shaken from their trance.

    * But see the career of “the Kingfish,” Huey Long, Louisiana Governor (1929-32) and U.S. Senator (1932-1935).
