The left does not win its battles in debate. It doesn't have to. In the twenty-first century, media is everything. The left wins because it controls the narrative. The narrative is controlled by the media. The left is the media. Narrative is everything. I call it the Democrat-Media Complex--and I am at war to gain back control of the American narrative. – Andrew Breitbart
Six years after Barack Hussein Obama announced his intention to run and 5 years into his presidency Republicans seem as perplexed by the man and his tactics as they did on day one. They now get that he despises them, and are finally beginning to understand that it’s not just politics, it’s personal. They can’t fathom why, even in victory, he continues to campaign against them; hammering their motives, attacking their character and belittling their beliefs rather than trying to curry their support and cooperation as did the Democrats of old.
Today I’m going to explain why Barack Obama is a whole new political animal, one that has “been evolving” for quite awhile in our primordial societal goo. Tomorrow, in Know Thy Enemy, Part I I’ll cover the 3 aspects of society that have set us up for this evolutionary force: the education system, the media and – an outgrowth of the first two – the celebrity culture. The synergy of all three elements has caused us to slip free of the gyroscopic force holding it all together. In Know Thy Enemy, Part 2 I’ll describe what can and must be done to stabilize and repair a society that is quickly moving from evolving to devolving.
Let’s begin by getting our arms around why the President is vested in maintaining the Republicans as his sworn enemies. That can best be explained by a brief Q&A:
Q. What is the difference between a leader and a community agitator?
A. Leaders lead and community agitators agitate.
And what does a community agitator need, first and foremost, to agitate against? An enemy. You know, Alinsky’s Rules et al.: “Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, polarize it. ...” “Keep the pressure on. Never let up.” Republicans, with their “kick me” signs on their backs were a natural.
But why would an American President spend his days agitating instead of working with Congress and business leaders to build up the economic sector, or develop meaningful bipartisan tax reform to stimulate business and jobs? The answer, as they say, is complicated but has been well chronicled.
The short answer is that Barrack Obama isn’t like other leaders...Read the Rest Here>>>
TOMORROW: Know Thy Enemy, Part I
Barack Obama did not bring us to this first circle of hell on his own. He was aided and abetted by 1) an education system with a relentless propaganda agenda, 2) a media oligopoly that has completely abrogated it’s First Amendment responsibility and 3) a celebrity dominated culture that is largely a product of the first two.
This is brilliant and I am grateful that it was posted, but serious pieces like this should not have grammatical errors like it’s, the contraction for it is, when it should be its, a possessive pronoun like his, that has no apostrophe.
I remember that the 1960s Marxist-Alinsky campus radical, psycho spoiled brats were celebrated in the establishment MSM as the most intelligent generation ever!. They are now arguably that very establishment that praised them and they hold themselves and their ideological issue in even higher regard.
Ladies and Gentlemen.. the New Normal
It is this simple. Obama says anything he wants. Lies anytime he wants. Completely hides anything he wants to and the media will cover his sorry ass every time.
I call it the Ministry of Truth.
This must be carefully thought out to save this country - if it is still even possible.
We need to regroup - have serious discussions & get this under control before the next election.
Nor should posters hit the POST button every 5 seconds.
8 in a row. This has to be a new FR record for stuttering.
Can say that (imho) I wish it were so simple. Have come to a point where I question the three prominent sides (r,d,m) and their desire to do what our Founders intended to secure a blessing of Freedom and Justice for the opposite I sense as though all three sides walk hand in hand. Have come to believe the m (media) is covering for the other two due to access and monetary compensation motives, of which at election time the monetary compensation flows freely. Why would any of the three sides change the rules to favor what the Founders intended or what would be best for our nation? Their methods have been lucrative for all three.
I think it is that simple.
What is complicated is how it got this way.
(imho) it is not so complicated that it cannot be understood. If all three (r,d,m) were to work together minus Conservatives would not the end goal be attained as is currently being witnessed? Conservatives are not welcome in D.C., and a Conservative (an actual Conservative) hosting media anchorship within one of the big three of media is unacceptable. Ever wonder why?
HOORAY Dewey! DEFUND socialist collectives, foreign and domestic. DEPOPULATE socialists/totalitarians from the body politic. We are all paying for this $ocialist debt $lavery...right now with our dwindling, middle-class, meager fortunes. Ultimately we’ll pay with our sacred honor and our lives.
