THEY AREN’T STUPID

They aren’t stupid. They may do things and make statements that make them look and sound stupid.

For example, President Obama’s congratulatory phone call to Sheriff Dupenik (purposely misspelled), after the unspeakable tragedy in Tucson, AZ, presumably went something like this, “you’re doing a heck of a job, Dupey”.

They are ruthless. They are unprincipled. And, worst of all, they are relentless and seemingly indefatigable.

But, make no mistake, they are anything but stupid!!

Rahm Emanuel’s adaptation of a favorite tenet of Machiavelli (and, of course, Saul Alinski): “never let a good crisis go to waste”, is currently being applied with no restraint.

They are like Olympic runners in the starting blocks, muscles straining, waiting for the starter’s gun.

When a crisis such as the Tucson shooting occurs, their research team springs into action, diving into their “Crisis” database under “Deranged Shooter”, “Multiple Killings”, etc., selecting Plans A, B, C, etc.; various scenarios that have been formulated to spin said crisis for maximum political advantage and stored, possibly many years in advance, in anticipation of a crisis that they have vowed to “not let go to waste“.

Plan “A” is distributed far and wide to all their political and media operatives for the full “blitzkrieg” treatment. If Plan A begins to generate unfavorable backlash from the public, Plan A is dialed back and Plan B is phased in.

The current Plan A appears to be dying on the vine; quite possibly evidence that the American people are, at long last, beginning to wise up.

They may take their lumps for trying to politicize this horrendous human tragedy for their own gain, just as their policies took an historic thumping in the November election. But if you think they will exhibit some measure of dignity and back off for a time, you are in for a nasty surprise. They will be hiding in the bushes, waiting for the next crisis to pounce on.

They lack morals and the ends justify the means in their eyes.

Lucifer is extremely clever and he is their inspiration. Don’t ever underestimate a communist....they are evil and deadly and they never give up. They have no other purpose in life than to dominate and control others and destroy their enemies. They have no respect for life.

Now useful idiots are a different story and they have no idea what is really happening in the world. They just are delivering their little programmed speeches with no conception of anything, especially right and wrong. They will be eliminated when they are no longer useful.

No, they are very stupid ... and they know they are idiots; but they don’t care.

They just know that the MSM will NEVER call them on it, not in any of the 57 states.

"The current Plan A appears to be dying on the vine; quite possibly evidence that the American people are, at long last, beginning to wise up. "

That's happening more and more lately... we are making some serious progress. But we still have too many freepers who listen to 'the news' then come back here and repeat it as if it were fact.

A good example- Paladino's campaign in NY was torpedoed by the media- they hounded him like you would not believe until he blew his stack when they put a camera in his daughters window and took pictures.

And then you never heard anything else except what a horrible candidate he was because of this.

Freepers who should have known better came out declaring how terrible a candidate we have- repeating the media line without stopping to think Cuomo was a million times worse.

That was the opinion the media wanted to give, and NO MATTER WHAT Paladino did they would never have said nice things about him.

But we are catching on faster and faster.

The puppet masters are extremely clever...only their useful idiots are dumb. They have put in such an intrinsic system to indoctrinate our children in the last one hundred years that it is quite beyond imagination. Their infiltration in all areas of government and media and in our legal system is pretty amazing. This has been going on right under our (dumb) noses and we have allowed them to take over the thinking of our children. They have total control over the educational system now thanks largely to Jimmy Commie Carter.

Those who control the minds of the children, control the culture and government.

That can hardly be done by stupidity—only on the stupidity of the parents and the “governed”.

No they will not “dial back” . . they will morph into a new subterfuge. Now it moves to the Republicans on the Hill and their agenda. It will be all about “cooling off” and bipartisanship. It will be all about getting the Republicans to back off their legislative agenda and, especially, their investigations of these corrupt Democrats and the Obama administration. That’s the bottom line. Don’t you see, we must not incite anymore Jared Loughner’s. . .so just relinquish more of your rights and don’t make a sound, okay?

Obama is a hater. A passive-aggressive hater, but an intense hater.

Having been to Burma, Laos and Cambodia, there is emense power, personal prestige and wealth at the end for select progressives. Of course, after the take over and elimination of external threats, they will turn on each other like Lenin, Stalin and Mao

Their MSM cover may be fading fast.
Their readers/viewers are staying away in droves.

I liked Paladino, but his shoot-from-the-hip style was kinda scary.
Blowing up about their intrusiveness into his family was justified, but you don’t make threats while the camera is running.

I suspect that the new batch of Republicans may not buy into the “go along to get along” concept that seems to infiltrate each new bunch of rookies after a few months.
And I’m hoping that the RINOs (or double agents, as I like to call them) may have gotten the Nov. 2, 2010 message, too.

I’m so glad you see it; I was beginning to think it was just me.

They’ve had us in their sights for many decades, now, but, over the years, at times when there appeared to be no hope, we rose up and pushed them back.
I don’t think there will be a takeover in our lifetime, but I’m worried about our kids and grandkids.
But the genes of that “great generation” that got us through the conflagration of World War II will still be in those that we leave behind, and I think there is still hope.
