You know Rodguy, it was the same with Bill Clinton. For the life of me, I couldn't see why folks and the press went gaga over him. I pegged him and his wife as grifters from nearly the first time I saw him in 1992. Meanwhile the people I talked to thought he was great. When he got elected, I was stunned. He went into office and he was a dud from the first day. I expected it, but the guys I spoke with just made excuses and the press adored him. That's the reason I came to Free Republic. Here I found others that hadn't fallen under his spell. Truly, that was my only explanation. I mean, everything written or spoken about him or Hillery was over the top to an amazing degree. He did the NYT crossword puzzle in ink in 4 minutes, and she was the smartest woman since the beginning of time. All I saw were the same two grifters, so I thought it must be some voodoo spell that I was immune from. What other reason could it be?
When Obama spoke at the 2004 Democrat Convention, I got the same feeling. I told my sister that this guy was going to be president one day. So I looked into him a little bit and decided I must be wrong. He had zero record of accomplishment and he had a real question of citizenship to boot. His wife was also without merit, to the degree that the only thing the press could say about her was to compliment her 'toned arms'.
When No-Name let him win, I couldn't believe it. When we let it happen again in 2012, I thought that black magic had once again found it's way to influence the voting public.
The evidence of this spell wasn't hard to spot, but it seemed to hit the members of the press especially hard. There was no mistaking the day to day reporting for anything in the range of normal journalism. Hell, it was beyond hero worship. Whenever I read the 'news', it seemed to be a coordinated effort to propagandize us, the public. I don't know why it didn't work on me while it hit so many other smart people I knew.
When Q came along, I loved the puzzle aspect of the questions, but I really gravitated to the occult (Satanic) message that emerged from the ANSWERS to those questions. It seems to be the only answer that could explain the pure evil that pedogate and the rest is a part of.
Now, if you buy my tale, it suddenly becomes very believable that these lowlifes could scam us for eight long ones. If you don't buy it, what is an alternative explanation?
