Boehner Sheds 96 Tears
I was more unsympathetic than a Libertarian laughing at a homeless
mother, who was dumpster-diving to find food for her children.
To be compassionate requires one to be perspicacious. It is hard to
have empathy for a wealthy man who is also lugubrious. Congressman
John Boehner's sob fest on the CBS news show, "60 Minutes," was
pathetic! If he was acting, it was the worst method acting ever
performed! Lee Strasberg must be laughing in his grave. If Boehner
is suffering from some sort of hysteria, then his federal health care
plan can direct him to a psychiatrist. Someone who is just plain
sensitive would never be a Conservative. Usually someone who's
suffering from a narcissistic personality disorder only cries about
himself; self-pity is a symptom. A sensitive person would shed tears
when they witness suffering by another. Conservatives, these days,
include middle-aged guys with daddy complexes. It's all based on
machismo nonsense, which I've been ranting about for years!
Propaganda is based on the intended audience's perception. For
years, the political Right has portrayed leftists as hypersensitive,
New Age, sissies. I don't know who these think tank people are, but
they are phoning it in! They are employing every tactic they can get
their hands on. The label, "Compassionate Conservative," was used
during the Bush years. Compassionate Conservative is a classic
oxymoron. You've likely noticed that you don't hear that label much
anymore. If propaganda is not consistent, then it spins out of
control and crashes.
Glenn Beck started this crying bit. People respond to this display
of histrionics. Firebrand evangelicals cry and dance on stage to
impart a hypnotic effect over the audience. Horror movies will depict
an innocent child, weeping, who then morphs into a demon and bites
another's head off! This makes you distrust innocence. Paranoia does
that to you, also. It takes critical perception to screen out the
phonies and the mentally challenged. Openly displayed emotions can be
deceitful, especially in politics and religion. Beware! Right wing
propagandists are so devious that they use Left wing tactics! Be very
aware of that!
One more thing: Glenn Beck is proud of himself because, two years
ago, he predicted there would be riots in the streets of Europe. If I
predict that Alaska will have snowstorms next winter, does not make me
prophetic? For decades, the European Left has been highly organized
and, if the government does something wrong, then the streets are
filled with protestors on just a moment's notice! In the USA, we are
lucky if we get people to demonstrate on a weekend.
There is no revolution coming, Glenn. Sorry about that, paranoid
one.
