Obama and the New Normal
The American Thinker ^ | May 21, 2010 | Robin of Berkeley

Posted on 05/21/2010 4:11:03 AM PDT by Scanian

The human brain is a complicated organ. It can be infinitely pliable but also maddeningly rigid.

Humans can be slow to recognize signs of imminent disaster. While red flags are flapping wildly in the wind, the person ignores any and all warnings.

But the brain can be highly suggestible, too, easily controlled and shaped by advertisers and spin doctors. Thus, after countless ads, a person associates soda with Coke, search engines with Google. And after having "Yes we can," burned into their neural pathways, all hope and change is connected to Obama.

That's why it's crucial to notice all the "firsts." Because once something is repeated often enough, it becomes the New Normal.

I was raised in the 50s and 60s. The comments in this article are confirmed to me every day. The America I remember is becoming a distant, fond memory—not perfect, by any means, but bonded by certain inarguable principles. The New Normal rejects such collective consciousness.

While we naysayers will be labeled fascists and -- worst of all -- conservatives, our only hope in reining in the moral decay is shouting back, "No!"

Yuri Besmenov warned that this was happening! The KGB called it "demoralization"! Our nation is thoroughly demoralized. Next step: Destablization!

Yet...Conservatives have no rational plan for RE-moralizing the nation.

The degradation of the culture through making the abnormal normal is no coincidence. Members of the Frankfurt School plotted the degeneration almost a hundred years ago. According to one group member, "We'll make the West so corrupt that it stinks."

We are now there. Yes, it stinks!

While we naysayers will be labeled fascists and -- worst of all -- conservatives, our only hope in reining in the moral decay is shouting back, "No!"

Shouting "NO" is not a rational plan!

We MUST MUST MUST raise up generations of children who can defend their Judeo Christian faith and our nation's founding principles. That is a plan that will work.

We MUST MUST MUST shut down socialist government schools. We, as conservatives, MUST MUST MUST get our nation's children into private conservative schools that thoroughly integrate the family's Judeo Christian faith and our nation's founding principles into every minute of every school day.

America's most urgent and serious threat is MARXISM. Marxism is center stage, and Islam is waiting in the green room. The only way to counter these two forces is to raise up righteous generations of children.
