Brainwashed???

Sheet fire... Boss Hog spends at least a million dollars a day trying to brainwash the citizens of the United States... And it ain't all in TV ads but in his bogus think tanks and his bogus *Americans for Mom and Apple Pie* organizations and his ownership of all media and, and, and... And a million a day is probably well on the low side...

So, hey, there is plenty of propaganda being thrown at US and lots of it is real tricky... I mean, down in Harrisonburg, Va. Boss Hog bought several 40 foot trailers and put them next to the interstate lettered up with "Vote All Incumbents OUT!!!" which mean, of course, a Repub victory... But those trailers were probably well received by anyone thinking that things aren't going well and lots of people did just that... They voted against incumbents and guess what???

So let's get real here on "brainwashing"... The entire "Well, both parties are the same" is as Republican as a Republican brainwashing trick that has ever been devised... Yeah, you go back 8 years ago and that dog could hunt but that dog died... Heck, if it were still coming out of the Green Party I'd have to give it a test ride but in the last two years we've been hearing it from folks who got it right outta the Republican think tanks...

But my hat's off to the Repubs 'cause they have pulled it off on folks who I thought were "free thinkers"... Guess not...

I mean, I asked the question about who pushed the Dems into health care reform for this very reason... No one did... No Boss Hog involvement at all... That says to me that there is a difference between the two parties... At least for now...
