Anti-O books dominate NYT bestseller list. Problem is (sm)


Posted: Sep 2, 2012

Can any of O's base read?  That's the REAL problem, as I see it.  I mean, look at the reading comprehension problems by some here on this very board.

Now, now, we're all literate here. In fact, this forum has gotten - has interested me in issues I did not know

existed or have been underestimating to the point that I don't recognize names thrown out here, terms used that mean a great deal to some but have been going right over my head, etc. Friends and neighbors here in Georgia don't talk about this stuff, or maybe I don't have the right handshake or something.

You guys need to understand that when we seem clueless, it's because we often really are. That a lot of this stuff is is going right over our heads because, although we do read, we haven't been reading what you do. For instance, I'm embarrassed to say that when a post referred to Dred Scott I didn't "get" it was a reference to abortion. I really should have understood that when President Bush used it in his speeches. It's short and simple, no study needed.

In any case, I am therefore currently reading a book to get more in touch. I thought Ophrah was a nice lady, but I certainly don't want her actually running the country. I confess I've heard of the Illuminati, New World Order, Elders of Zion but really haven't bothered to learn anything about them (not at all short and simple, of course), and I didn't know there was a problem of with the Bilderbergers at all. Sheriff Joe? Oh. :) Obama as a Manchurian candidate. Secret communist symbols hidden in the decor at Rockefeller Center. Obama's brother George. Lady Gaga's involvement in an anti-American cult. Even W's joining with Clinton re MENA. This is big stuff, some of it anyway.

My book's only in the early 1800s, though, with the arrest (9/11 in 1826!) and disappearance of William Morgan after his revelations about the Masonic conspiracy. So in the meantime I'll have to resort to googling some of the various discussions.

Wasn't referring to "clueless." Was referring to - people purposely (sm)

misunderstanding things so they can accuse others of saying things they didn't say. You have to watch for that. Jus sayin

That doesn't make any sense. What's the political point of your post? - ????

Based on what I've read from some Obama supporters here, they're not only well read, but they know what they believe and can defend it! Agree with it or not, but at least respect it!
