Pick the Target, Freeze It, Personality It, and Polarize It.

Didn’t work too well on Limbaugh. Didn’t work at all on Tea Party attendees.

How about this one, Alinsky bed-wetters: For every action there is an opposite and equal reaction.

Or as they say in the east: Karma is a bitch.

All of which means that leftists must be personally ostracized as untouchables. They have lost their Americanism. They are personally unfit to be liked or associated with. They carry the plague.

The Left is a conglomeration of cults.

Some of us should register as djimmirats and trash their primaries.

An "Operation Chaos" do over?

Some of us should go that route, and also stymie any Bamacrat from holding any sort of public office down to dog catcher, lest they aspire to higher office. We have to get our minds right. Someone once said “Politics is war through other means”. I submit to you that the Bamacrats are waging lawfare against America. It is their contract ON America..

Only more fluid, changing tactics more quickly than the opposition..”Adapt, improvise, and overcome.”

Those are Google Ads.

Those ads are driven by keywords on the page.

I use Google Ads and on pages where I'm referencing Muslims (usually referring to the words Obama and/or Muslim) I will get ads for Muslim dating services and ads meant for Obots.

American Thinker has nothing to do with the ad selection and/or content.

Thanks for the feedback. I was wondering if editor-surveyor's computer was somehow hijacked. editor-surveyor's experience is more the exception than the rule, IMHO.

Well, I clicked on their “health care” petition ad, and ‘signed’ it as “Hitlery Klinton” with an email address of “thewitch@wazoo.com

I hope they don’t mind! :o)

I’ve found that some conservatives with excellent jobs are just not reading the news that we are.

They frankly, are disbelieving when you tell them things. This is not news to many, but it’s stunning when it’s someone you know very well.

Lots of alleged conservatives watch CNN, MSNBC, ABC, NBC, ABC and actually believe what they hear and see :

“90% of all guns used by Mexican drug cartels are bought in the US and shipped to.....”

As long as American voters watch TV and listen to radio and read newspapers they will believe the General Electric, Progressive Insurance, Allstate Insurance sponsored propaganda

The 10% of Republicans and many of the Independents who voted for Obama are likely still drinking the Kool-Aid

Local NBC TV and radio stations should be challenged at the periodic FCC times when they review/renew local licenses

Obama wants licensing of newspapers now too - and likely of internet newsites too

Start collecting the felonies that Obama, Pelosi, Reid, Feinstein, Kerry, etc. could be subject to as you can bet the liberals will press harder for hearings, trials, criminal convictions involving “torture”

Where are you buying or getting your “gifts” of your cocaine now Obama Junior?

Lots of real conservatives watch them and believe what they see and hear - as most of us did ten years ago before Fox News and all the internet news.

Exactly potlatch

When they start griping they will have nobody to blame but themselves

And the young liberals and Indys will face the new America with no Pontiac or Pontiac union jobs (just a sample!) and a huge federal, state, local income tax, property tax, sales tax, increased and new “fees”

Teachers are now being laid off from their union jobs in many states and districts

I guess they will all simply take great new GREEN jobs and not worry about the 100 million of new debt interest due every 2 hours now

But Obama Junior’s cousin Odinga is getting his millions of dollars of food and supplies and equipment shipped to him now in Kenya courtesy of the scammed American taxpayers

Thanks for ping!

To add to Lewis’s piece I would say that in any organization that tries to impose socialism there will be scapegoating even if the original intent is humane. This was well portrayed in the movie “Eleni” where the Communists in Greece were frequently in the position of having to explain to their organizational higher-ups why such and such program was not working as planned. Someone had to be blamed.

So as Obama’s programs inevitably don’t work as planned, there will be scapegoats. It’s a given.

Rules for Radicals might have been written by a medieval mob agitator; only a few words need to be changed. 'Pick the Target, Freeze It, Personalize It and Polarize It.'

Substitute "heretic" or "witch" for "target" and you have all the religious persecutions in human history. Substitute "blacks," and you have a Dixiecrat lynch mob. Substitute "whites," and you have all of J-Wright's sermons at Trinity United, Chicago. It's all the same thing.

This is it - the formula for mass murder - hatred - a heart of darkness...
