Managing Your Thinking


Managing Your Thinking
Posted by Butler Shaffer on August 15, 2011 09:05 AM

CNN ­ the established order's principal voice on cable ­ is providing yet another example of Thomas Pynchon's observation: "If they can get you asking the wrong questions, they don't have to worry about answers." CNN asks (re the GOP campaigning this past weekend) whether Michelle Bachmann or Rick Perry had the better outcome. Perry wasn't a candidate at the Iowa straw poll, so the importance of his presence has meaning only to the mainstream media bobble-heads whose job it is to communicate to the boobeoisie the establishment's preferred thinking. No mention need be made of the 800 pound gorilla at the dinner party, because no decent, right-thinking person would be so crass as to mention him, anyway. But in addition to Perry, there was another man whose absence from the straw poll confirms his greatness as a candidate: Rudy Giuliani! Will he be "America's choice?" The establishment may soon tell us ­ via the mainstream media ­ who we really want!
