The Circumstantial Evidence Surrounding a Conspiracy

The Hannity , Limbaug and O’Reilly factors and How They Come Into Play with McCain’s Subliminal Ad Campaign

 

Something very important to take into consideration is the fact that the lowlife elements that surround the McCain campaign seemingly indirectly, are in fact actively and knowingly involved in the reinforcement aspect of the subliminal attack against Senator Obama. If you listen to Hannity, Limbaug, O’Reilly and the rest of them these days , you will see that their main theme is “The Messiah”. They are constantly referring to the Senator as such and make references to the McCain camps ads. This is to reinforce the message being sent via the internet ads just as McCain’s internet ads messages are meant to reinforce that which is being propagated by ‘they’ themselves. The attack by right wing radio is continual on this ‘Antichrist’ theme. The other theme they try to hammer in to the minds of the working class is ‘Drilling’. It is the only other thing that they constantly talk about . This is because those Oil lobbyists who formally could rely on just paying off the canditate with ‘perks’, can no longer do so now that we have Barak Obama as a candidate.

Most people in the democratic camp do not at all listen to what the right wing has to say, and just ignore their existence totally. This is a grave mistake. We must ‘always’ know what the enemy is up to. But as it is, they just operate openly without any fear of being discovered. For example, Rush Limbaugh can go on and on claiming that second hand smoke is harmless. He will quote doctors testimonies from the ‘Heartland Institute’. His listenters will never think to even check out just exactly ‘who’ the Heartland Institute’ “IS’. It does not occur to them that the Heartland Institute is a think tank founded by the Tobacco Industry and furthermore, they will not even bother to check out the connection between the tobacco industry and Heartland if you pay them. They want to believe what they want to believe and that is all there is to it. They are ‘trained’ to accept ‘soundbites’. It is just as FOX news says…”We report , you decide”, and this is just fine and dandy as far as they are concerned .The truth is though, that all this effects YOU! And so you might ask, How? You might say, “ I do not even watch FOX or listen to Limbaug or Hannity” But it DOES effect you , because if ‘they’ are effected and then act on it by voting a certain way, we all suffer as a result of their uncousiousness and ignorance.

The Discouragement Factor

How the Right wing gains an extremely valuable few percentage points by discouraging voters and leaving them with a’ Why Bother to Vote’ Attitude

 

Years ago I was walking down MacDougal street in Manhattan and passed a Newsstand where there were copies of the right wing ‘New York Post’ on display. On the front page was a photo of Jimmy Carter. He looked like he was some kind of drunk bungling fool in the photo. I thought to myself, “ Oh my God, with this kind of crap out there , why bother to even vote” I thought “ they are so in control of the media and people are so hypnotized and accepting of this kind of thing that the situation is hopeless anyway. Their front page attacks continued throughout his bid for a second term. Each day some new retouched photo would appear depicting him in some ugly light. You can imagine that I was quite surprised when a few months latter, the New York Post …went out of business. Why? Because nobody was reading it. Their sales were just so poor that they could not stay afloat. Of course a short time latter someone else bought the paper and today they are still there gracing the stands of every newsstand in New York. “And so they didn’t succeed in their endeavor” you might say; but, that was not the case at all! It did not matter how many people they convinced TO VOTE…they succeeded in how many people the convinced NOT TO BOTHER TO VOTE, and so, Carter lost the election. At any rate, they sure succeeded with me, because…I DIDN’T VOTE.

There was also a TV show on the air at that time called “ The Morton Downy Show’. I used to surf the channels and drop in on him too. I knew that the audience was carefully selected for maximum effect and that the whole thing was orchestrated, but still, it managed to convince me that voting was a waste of time and so my ‘Why bother’ attitude was further reinforced to the point that I just gave up even hoping that Carter might be re-elected. And what happened to Morton Downey?....off the air,,,cancelled…nobody was watching. Now I am not saying that people didn’t watch Morton Downey, because they did. But…they only ‘dropped in’ long enough on their channel surf to pick up the attitude of hoplessness that the producers wished to convey.

And so it is today with Clear Channel and radio shows like Hannity , Limbaugh, and O’reillys. We get in our cars and scan the airwaves and what do we get…discouragement. We get the impression that ‘everyone’ is with ‘them’ and that the world is a hateful place. There are in fact about 14,000,000 subscribers in total to Hannity’s and Limbaugh’s programs, but the majority are ‘drop ins’ like you and me who simply walk away discouraged. I would guess that perhaps 20 to 30 percent are serious right wing kooks, but that is really not that many if you think about it and do the math. But in light of what is the real ‘reason to be’ of these stations, that is really a very tiny percent. Where they win is with the ‘discouragement factor’. They simply cause a larger percent of people of casual drop in listeners to “not even bother’ anymore. I remember when FOX news got on the air back in the nineties. I was shocked to hear that at the beginning they only had 11,000 regular listeners. I thought, “ That’s ridiculous, everyone knows who FOX is” And I was right , everyone knew…but they were only drop ins. And so those of us who did ‘drop in’ went on our way toward CNN or something else with the thought…’everyone is into this…the situation is hopeless…why bother”… and this…is exactly how they win elections. What people do not realize, is that publications like the ‘New York Post’and ‘the Washington Times, and radio stations that carry Limbaug, Oreilly, Savage and Hannity, are really ‘Loss Leaders”. The idea is that they ‘get you into the store’ and then you buy. They lose money in fact or just barely stay afloat. Imagine for example…Rush Limbaugh was just paid $400,000,000 for his new contract with talk radio. His sponsors will NEVER make that back. But why do they pay him like this…because their profits are not realized by the Ads they sell, but rather by the Multibillion dollar ‘ideas’ they put forth and brainwash their constituency into buying. And of course they reap the most by discouraging the voters that might vote out of office the fat cats that ‘they’ work for. Think about all this. Think for a long time about it, because it’s all true. You just can’t believe it. Turn off the TV and the radio and do the math and …think THINK….THINK!!!!!!!

Here is just one after word on discouragement! Realize that if and when you point out and show even good friends what is presented here on this site, that they perhaps harbor long held repressed prejudices about people of color. It is more than just difficult to try to bring people around to any higher understanding of things as they really are in world. When confronted with the fact that they may be being manipulated with such as subliminal advertising, they will often go into immediate ‘denial’ and even react somewhat violently. Some friend of yours from the distant past that you might try to convince of these things has perhaps been living in a very different world then the more enlightened world that you live in. Many in this country have nothing more to look forward to at the end of a very tiring day trying to make ends meet, then to sit down and watch television. Perhaps the only thing they can listen to on their now expensive commute to work is the likes of Sean Hannity and Rush Limbaug. They simply ‘DON’T KNOW’. When you confront them they may have the feeling that you feel you are superior to them or that you are ‘uppity’ or even far removed from reality, albeit that it is only the insular reality of their seemingly inescapable circumstance. Dealing with them requires love and patience. Sometimes we of course feel that it is hopeless, but; I should tell you: in the years that I spent traveling by train across this nation, I have found that the people that inhabit our great heartland are a very warm, good and genuine people. They are always ready to listen if you just treat them respectfully and honestly. They are fully aware in at least some sense that they are being hoodwinked by the powers that be; and so when you try to present to them something new, realize that they will readily react with the attitude of; “I have heard it all before”. But, they will listen and they will think about what you present to them if they believe you are real and sincere. Even when they acknowledge you, they will say (as do my friends who can understand everything I show them) “ But what can we do about it”…again…they feel it is hopeless…which it is NOT. John Kerry only lost by a tiny fraction of a percent. Al Gore in fact WON the popular vote. It is that tiny percentage that a floundering Republican party hopes to win by. They don’t need to win by 20 percent…they only have to ‘win’…by hook or crook. The most important thing to understand though -- (and I speak from experience) is this: though in presenting this material you may not be able to convince anyone to vote for Barak Obama, if you are successful in making your point, you will succeed in that they will say something to the effect “ Well then, I won’t vote for anyone at all”! this has been my experience with this project. Better they don’t vote for anyone then they go out and vote for McCain just to spite YOU. Be kind and thoughtful. Not everyone has access to the kinds of information that they really need. We all have opinions about things when what we really need in ‘information’. Try to provide information to them with humility and a sincere understanding as to what they might be going through in these hard times. … thank you …an skoouse my spellin’ n’ typos…Pleezee
