Emotional Politics

by Brian Wilson

Recently by Brian Wilson: It Made My Teeth Hurt

 

A close friend who has the distinct pleasure [sic] of working deep in the bowls of the Logic Free Zone (Washington, DC for the First Time Reader), wrote to me with the following experience and extrapolation. I believe his insight and observations would be of interest to astute LRC readers.

“You cannot dissuade a person from a position with reason and facts if reason and facts did not determine the position in the first place.”

UFO Crash In Ukraine? September 27, 2012

The eternal hurdle of conservatism in the minds of a large component of the electorate – perhaps even a majority, we will learn in November – is that “it sounds mean.” I am constantly told that Leftists in general and Obama in particular have the upper hand “because they sound nice, like they care.” I am now persuaded, after decades of ardent resistance to the idea, that this analysis is both perceptive and correct.

I am by no means a Romney fan, he ranked eleventh among the ten GOP candidates for me, but I believe that another term of this current communist cabal will bring an end to the United States of America. I have made no secret of my conclusion that this outcome is nearly inevitable, but I keep hoping and praying that the nation will come to its senses, but I do not see evidence of that hope coming to fruition. Sometimes a brief experiential vignette brings further clarity to my thought.

Last Monday I was in the waiting room of the car dealer service center biding my time until the shuttle took me to work while the car was being repaired. The television was on and it seemed like every advertisement was either by Romney or Obama. The response of the rest of the patrons was startling in its vehemence. When Romney was on the screen the virulent hostility of every single person (except me) was palpable. I was taken aback by the venomous hatred, and several of the observers expressed out loud a desire to literally kill Romney themselves. Why? Because, “He is going to take away our stuff!” An Obama appearance was greeted with enthusiasm equal to the previous hatred as these folks expressed an exhortation to “Protect our boy so he can keep giving us our stuff.”

When I mentioned this to my wife and my adult daughters, sensible conservative pro-life Godly women all, they concurred with the general thesis of this essay. Conservatives “sound mean” and are falling farther and farther behind when they try to make reasoned, factual arguments. The vast majority of the electorate is immune to factual arguments, they aver, because the world is now governed by rampant emotionalism, and the Leftists are simply far more skilled at using irrational, emotional manipulation.(Emphasis added) In my ladies’ assessments, the GOP has to make emotional arguments to counter the Left and connect with the electorate, and they (conservatives/GOP) are simply incapable to doing so effectively.

      Romney is an idotic bumbling clutz without any political skills what so ever. He is more likely to sit on the big red button thinking it’s a male dildo. And then shrug his shoulders in a completely careless manner with a big resounding “Oops”, as the world goes up in flames. :wink:

        all presidents are now given the “button test” – a potential nuclear event scenario designed to challenge the president’s ability to resolve the most cataclysmic situation known to man. obama failed.
        he was unable to make the decision necessary for a successful conclusion to the test. the Only one who has ever failed that test.

      Hail to the uneducated. :idea: An article several months ago stated it was a battle between the takers and the makers. When you have nothing Obama sounds good and when you have something Obama is bad. Sadly; there are more takers than makers. Manufacturing has left the coop but with reservations as they are forced to look elsewhere to harbor their goods. There are so many regulations to adhere to (USA) in order for A business to run properly is is actually cheaper to operate in a foreign country – almost any foreign country. Those who graduate from High School are fewer each year, and those who do gradate are off to a University that will not teach them skills to survive in the upcoming financial disaster that is just around the corner. I used to believe that conspiracy theories were all bunk, but my eyes are no open and Obama is leading the USA to a new world order. Better go and see the movie “The Hunger Games” to see what direction the world is heading into in the near future. “The rich upper class and the poor lower class” ; our new two class society.

        It’s going to be the rich and the wanna-be rich OR the poor, and the middle class will be replaced by an everwidening chasm between Haves and Have-nots. Nobody wants to be poor, so the wanna-be-Haves vote for the one who gives them the hope of having. Those who don’t wannabe rich and are content with less still vote for the one they hope will fulfill their dreams of having. Because in this capitolistic nation and world, money is the key to “having” anything or everything. Those that want the money to have things will choose to serve the Haves. Those who want things will steal if they don’t have. Those whose God is The Lord Jesus Christ have their instructions, but will they follow them (Him), or cave to the love of money?

        Those who choose money will rationalize their decisions by demonizing the poor as “lazy, wothless leeches” who hold back their prosperity and want to get rid of them. But it is greed and its insatiable lust for more — made possible only through money — that created the poor in the first place. Every American that wanted one used to have a job and worked to help build businesses into corporations who then cut their throats by replacing the workers with machines and sending jobs overseas, etc., so they could make more money with less payroll.

        Don’t let anyone demonize the poor in your eyes, for with the measure we judge another, we ourselves will be judged — and then we will be the poor man. –see the parable of Lazarus and the rich man with the understanding that the one is the many and the many are the one. The one rich man in the parable is the rich collectively and the one poor man is the poor collectively in our first-ever global community on earth these days.

      You are 100% right. It Obama get a second term, the USA as we know it today will be gone. My thought is that if Obama is re-elected, he will issue an executive order to grant Green Cards to almost every illegal in this country. Obama and Holder are ant-Gun. Another thing you can look for from Obama, if re-elected is gun control by executive order. Who is going to stop him. No one.
      ANYBODY, BUT OBAMA IN 2012!!!!! :mad:

        He will also install 2 more communist judges. I think the election won’t even be close. However, obama will win through fraudulent means because of all the money invested in the down fall of the USA.

      The Republicans can’t handle the current economic situation any better than the Democrats can. The closest we have seen to someone who stands a chance is Ron Paul, but we saw how far he went. The coming election is beside the point.

      The letters “a,b,d,e,g,p,q” are in every day use for depicting the number 6.
      In logos, brandnames, tv-shows a “circle with a broken tail” almost always represents the number 6. Literally everywhere to find.

      As you try to perceive the letters as mere pictograms without the additional info bound to them, you will see how the letter “a” is an upside down(inverted) “e”. “b” is the mirror image to “d” just like g is to p or to q. By the time you must already have figured it out but in case don’t flip g,p,q on their heads and see what happens.

      The title of the article, in terms of those mentioned above, is just another symbolic representation of the infamous number 666. Of course it’s again by chance that it was Mr. Ubermensch(that’s what superman literally means) who “reported” this. And of course Mr. Wilson did it only for the sake of alliteration, only to add some literary value to his article, right?

      For most of you, that’s a far stretch. For the rest of you that’s egsactly how spells are put upon people. Seems innocent, powerless, sometimes even ridiculous, but combine more of these in a well organised system of symbols,expose the victims endlessly to them , and voilá, you get magic.

      What does one expect to see out of a populace that votes for their own pocketbooks? Jesus told us the truth: One person can NOT serve two masters: God and money are not mixable any more than are iron and clay, oil and water, north and south — in spite of the deceiver who so cleverly placed the words, “In God We Trust,” on American dollars so we’d believe and act as if we can serve both. So what do the politicians need to “sell” the voters to get their votes except a false prophecy that their pocketbooks will remain or become filled? In short, the best salesman buys the most votes, which buys him the throne of one who is so boastfully proclaimed to be “The Most Powerful Man on Earth” and figurehead of “The #1 Superpower on Earth.”

      The USA fits the description of “the little horn” spoken of in the book of Daniel. The nation that starts out small and quickly (compared to other empires) rises to unprecidented global power, whose head is divided (wounded) by dependency upon a bi-partisan congress, and whose way is capitalism (love-of-moneyism).

      Yes. Thank you. It’s all starting to boil now.

      All the lies, all the time, so much intense high-level treachery and hypocrisy in our faces. If you read this you will understand not only our leaders lie to us now but it goes back to way before ‘when did you know it was a terrorist attack’ and keep on telling us it was the ‘movie’.

      The bottom line with me, regarding the GOP, is they have delegitimized themselves. They alienated their entire future base of members by showing the entire world how unethical they are during this years caucuses and primarys. They brazenly rigged single votes and entire districts, and openly hi-jacked many.
      As for Romney… he was a sub par candidate 4 years ago, and he still is. If he’s the best they can come up with, they deserve to lose.
      I, for one, will not fold and validated their rigged 2 party system.
      Screw the GOP… vote 3rd party or write someone in. If you cant do that… stay home and dont vote at all.

      OK well, when I read stuff from people marking the differences between politicians, right away I know I’m dealing with a moron.

      Do you really think one politician is any different than any other, when both are being sponsored by the same people? You don’t have a democracy in the USA, you have a choice between which public relations officer you want for the next few years. Your so called ‘presidents’ work for the banksters and big corporations. Are you so niave to believe they are working for your benefit?

    • Joe_Zao

      This campaign is the most serious campaign in US History – will we remain American? Or will we just be the common flag of any country? I do not think that even Martin Luther King would have the good life if Barrack Obama were first before him. I am not a racist. I get mad at people like anyone, but there is the demographic, “The Kings and Queens” of America, and they are a colorless infrastructure that is dissolved with President Obama. This group has always been the appeal of America, rich or poor and has the mind and back that are not afraid to do the best or right thing. This is the group that provides genuine civil rights and productive growth towards a civilization that make me question at heart, is this man really a USA friend when not even black people will stand gains in 10 years? Everything must go is Obama’s style management – there is no leadership.

      On the Debates tonight – How much money should America spend to lose the hell – for both Presidential candidates, Romney and Obama. Please allow a full three minutes each without any interruption or question – an opinion from their lips and hearts only and absolute silence to hear precisely the answer – 300 seconds for a nation, and the cold mike the question to the next candidate. That is, just the microphone on the candidate with no other studio sounds – 300 seconds for a nation 300 years old. That is not too beyond media reality, is it?

      we are so doomed,these evil liberals have kicked God aside for so long that they have become completely demon possesed,that is why they are filled with so much hate,they hate anything decent and right and moral,they call good ,evil and they call evil ,good,just like Jesus said they would do right before he came back,it really will come doewn to us having to fight these evil people in order for us to save ourselves and our country,these people have so much hate that I know what the Bible is talking about when it says that these people even gnash their teeth and cuss God when they see him coming in the sky,cause they already hate him now so much.
