tommyjohnson44: zen at this point i will take obama
Did tommy actually say this, of course he did. The question you should be asking yourself is 'How did tommy mean this'.
This is a prime example of how the republican party and the mass media take a partial sentence, repeat it out of content and get the public in an outrage.
Now many that go to SI rooms and know tommy more than likely knew if tommy said such a thing he was being facetious, but someone that doesn't know tommy and his views on paltalk would think that tommy is 'bitter and frustrated' enough to vote outside his party for Obama. You know like the mass media does.
This tactic has been used on the America people since at least 1928 when Edward L. Bernays took the ideas of his famous uncle Sigmund Freud, and applied them to the emerging science of mass persuasion. The only difference was that instead of using these principles to uncover hidden themes in the human unconscious, the way Freudian psychology does, Bernays studied these same ideas in order to learn how to mask agendas and to create illusions that deceive and misrepresent, for marketing purposes. And it has been going on ever since in the America's media propaganda.
When it comes to a discussion of what's going on in the world, the honest individual must admit that he has almost no idea. When was the last time George Bush invited you into the Green Room for a private chat with Cheney and Ashcroft about the future of big oil? When did Bill Gates last invite you up to his Redmond digs for a wine and cheese brainstorming session about the next Big Thing? Or when did your neighbor who lives three houses away from you call you up to tell you about the unfulfilled plans of his father who just found out he's dying of cancer? How many life stories of the world's six billion people do you know anything about? This is to say nothing of fluid events which are coming in and out of existence every day between the nations of the world. What do you really know about what is really going on?
Most only know what they have been told by the candidate, mass media, their political party or family & friends. Sound-bites, edited and omission to place the spin that is desired.
So for now on you can call me the Faux Noise of Paltalk, for I will do what the politicians and mass media has been doing for years and use snippets, partials and editing to hopefully teach the ignorant; such as tommyboy, how easily it is for ones words to be manipulated, misrepresented, distorted and then be fabricated, spinned, or rendered to have a totally different meaning than was intended.
So tommy let me be the first one to welcome you to the dark-side.
