Ed, it’s the Kool-Aid we’re not drinking

that makes us Obama supporters.

It was fitting that Ed Rendell chose to disparage Obama supporters with his Kool-Aid remark in a focus group session with Frank Luntz   He’s so full of Kool-Aid I half expect him to burst through my kitchen wall any minute.    This is a guy who's been paid millions by the GOP to "shape the language" around their damaging policies.   This is guy who will look at you with a straight face and tell you "The Healthy Forests Initiative", "Death tax", and "Climate Change" are actually "clarifications" not obfuscations.

This is guys who’s job it is to find the most misleading confusing terms to promote and apply to a position or product so that public has no idea what it’s getting.   He is a guru of spin.

So if he and Rendell are trying to sell you Hillary....  Take note.

If you have never seen PBS’s Frontline episode "The Persuaders"  it is a must see.  It is several years old but an excellent expose on the MSM / Advertising methods of control.   You can watch the whole thing online here:

 
(It gets into politics in the "Give us what we want" section)
It is this "tell them what they want to hear", focus group driven bull sheit politics that is destroying this country.   Obama is a breath of fresh air, telling it like it is, and not getting involved in the petty mud slinging.

I give you "word whore" Dr. Frank Luntz:

I used to think they were just trying to drag the primary out to weaken the Democrats chances.
Now I believe Obama is starting to scare the hell out of the MSM and they are actually trying to deliver Hillary a victory.  

I’ve never felt more right about my decision to back Obama.
