It’s 1984 All Over Again

La La LandThey say that history repeats itself. But I never thought it could happen so soon. The clues were all there. Standing out sorely for anyone to see. And while many of us spoke out loudly and often we were castigated and labeled as delusional. We tried to warn everyone. Sought others to heed our call. We doubled and tripled our efforts, losing sleep, missing work, closing ourselves off from families and friends. All of it intended to wake people up to what was hiding behind the hope. A change no one really wanted.

It started with MSNBC. They apparently had Cult-Aide delivered in place of the water cooler. Timmy started the hate, regurgitating Republican talking points as if he had graduated Magna Cum Laude from the Atwater Rove College of Smear. Tweety had to come out of the closet, admitting that Obama made his “leg” tingle. Shuster proved that even cavemen can get a job in broadcasting. And Olbermann auditioned for the latest drama queen on any number of soap operas.

Iraq

We should have noticed when the far left led by Howard Dean and Donna Brazile canceled the Congressional Black Congress debate sponsored by Fox. It should have alerted us that something was amiss. But too many bought into the lie. And our silence at the time only egged them on and helped to consolidate their power base. CNN joined MSNBC aiding and abetting the crime. Little by little, day by day truth disappeared slowly but steadily. It only took a gradual shift to sneak it by everyone without much notice.
But it was enough to accomplish their master plan.

NYT Drinks Cult-Aide: Throws Hillary Under the Bus!


Yesterday’s New York Times Editorial cut right to the chase. They wasted no time whatsoever in throwing Hillary Clinton right under the bus. After all she has done for the city of New York it would seem that the very least they could do is have a little grace and dignity. But they apparently don’t understand what it means to have respect.

According to the New York Times Editorial Board Hillary continuing in this race is contingent upon two ridiculous requirements.

First of all she is not allowed to use the phrase White voters. Because apparently this is offensive to black voters and we sure as hell can’t have that.

Sen. Clinton and the Campaign

But we believe just as strongly that Mrs. Clinton will be making a terrible mistake — for herself, her party and for the nation — if she continues to press her candidacy through negative campaigning with disturbing racial undertones.

In other words, Hillary must use only black approved politically correct language when discussing her strengths and Obama’s weaknesses. Since when is honesty and frankness something that we should sweep under the rug? Is censorship the new password for Democrats? After all the lies we have heard these past long 7+ years from the Bush gang, isn’t it refreshing that we have a candidate for President that is willing to be up front with us for a change?

Obama can declare that there are “typical white people” and that is ok but Hillary makes mention that she has stronger support from whites and she is painted as being racially divisive? Give me a break!
