I, for one, will leap savagely to your defense!
Who here thinks Alan “The Alien” Colmes is even remotely “natural”?....;-D
[I call him Jiminy Crackpot]
C’mon...admit it....until I confessed my utter ineptitude, you *were* thinking of following me into some glorious battle, weren’t you?
;-D
And how does that make you ~feel~, DrewsMum?
[rofl!]
Hey, that was a good one... And, yes, these folks, including Bambi, make their living off other folks weaknesses.
I believe you!
Well maybe, a little. LOL You are very persuasive. Maybe you should run for president. Or at least become an advisor to McCain.
Is it possible that if Obama has the uncanny ability to cause such joy and love in some people, could he also cause the depression and lethargy in the rest of us?
>>>Would you like to transfer your wealth to me now?
or five minutes from now?<<<<
Some people really enjoy the feeling when they pay more taxes, won’t you. It caused a big feeling of complete satisfaction, like swimming in a nice warm ocean in Indonesia.
I was referring to GREAT POLITICAL SPEAKERS.
Although there are some people who like W's style, I'm not one of them - and NOBODY would think he was even a good, much less a great, political speaker.
I had a boss once who had that ability. Midway thru every departmental meeting he had successfully put half of us to sleep........
No!
I must be Absolute Queen of the Universe...no, wait, the....Multiverse!
Yeah!
That’s the ticket!
All of you shall kneel before me in adoring worship!
You will build altars unto me and adorn them with gold and rare gems!
Kneel, lowly serfs!
Kneel, I say!
[see why you -never- elect Leos? we’re all power-crazed lunatics]....;-D
It was a joke..but I do think his speech after 911 was great.
Been kinda lackluster since that.
Actually, I'm working on the great American novel about all the weird people I've seen.
That whole article is interesting, EBH (post #84). It reminded me of another technique Obama uses: the fainting members of the crowd, complete with drama and a water-bottle rescue.
;-D !!
>>>>This is the kind of stuff for the alien-abduction crowd. “Hidden hypnosis,” as a concept is bogus.<<<<
I studied Ericsonian hypnosis and NLP formally for a year and informally for longer, and it is not “alien abduction “ or “bogus”. As you know, that’s a charge that’s been made by “mainstream” shrinks for decades.
While I don’t subscribe to every assertion in the referenced report, it *is* generally correct in laying out the technics and language patterns.
>>>All hypnosis is self-hypnosis and cannot be “imposed” by an outside force.<<<<
True. Which is why all serious practicioners of Ericsonian hypnosis and NLP recognize the essential need for rapport with the subject.
Thank you, I did read that.
I guess Michelle hasn’t learned all this stuff as she has kept a very low profile. I guess the lobster and Iranian caviar kept her busy at the Waldorf while sipping champagne. It’s a little early to be celebrating IMO.
Cindy McCain often speaks at the rallies, she is an inspiration to many women as is Sarah Palin.
Wonder why they’re not “fainting” any more?
[sheesh...talk about waaaaaay over the top]
