Selling America: Why the MSM Can’t Tell the Truth

INSIGHT ANALYTICAL WELCOMES GRAIL GUARDIAN!

Last Thursday (September 18), IA posted a piece entitled SHILLING and CHURNING–the State of the Media and the “Mass Production of Ignorance” (A Double Post by kenosha Marge and InsightAnalytical-GRL).  Grail Guardian, who as made some great comments before, expanded on the topic and it was such a powerful read that we decided to give it the place it deserved as a featured post.

And… with this post we are happy to welcome Grail Guardian as a contributor to InsightAnalytical.  Grail Guardian will be posting her thoughts when the spirit moves her and time allows, so we’ll be looking forward to her thoughts in the future!

Here’s Grail Guardian’s introduction in her own words….

I am an IT professional from Upstate NY, a staunch supporter of Hillary Clinton, I am deeply outraged at the hijacking of democracy and the American electoral system by both political parties, and my hobbies include studying history, genealogy, and ensuring that Barack Obama never steals the White House.

Again, WELCOME Grail Guardian!

Selling America: Why the MSM Can’t Tell the Truth

~~By Grail Guardian

This (the shilling and churning) is more than the media not doing their jobs, or not being given the opportunity to do investigations, or even an epidemic of Barackomania.

These people are an integral and premeditated part of a very longstanding plan to not just elect Barack Obama, but to steal the electoral process (and ultimately democracy itself) away from the American people. This did not start with Barack Obama, or even the illegal coronation of George W. Bush. In fact, I have come to believe that the reason the media and political establishment reviles Bill and Hillary Clinton so deeply is because Bill derailed a plan (that has been in place since at least Ronald Reagan) to slowly but surely capitalize on the general laziness and laissez-faire attitude of Middle America to have a silent but irreversible coup d’etat where a silent government (behind the visible actors and bloviators in the Capitol and White House) in essence traps the American public into a bizarre state of modern slavery that even Orwell couldn’t forsee.

We eat and buy what we are sold on TV, in the movies, and in popular music. Restaurants have become virtually 100% homogeneous across this vast nation (just think about how weird it is that you can walk into a chain restaurant – all owned by the same small group – anywhere in the US and order the same exact dish, and it will taste essentially the same, and have the same total lack of nutrition and be overloaded with carbohydrates and fats that make us sluggish, dull, and obese). All of our children have to have the same and latest cell phone, MP3 player, laptop, video game player, music, unreasonably expensive clothing and footwear – the list goes on and on.

Now the global corporate machine is straining world resources to spread their plans to China, India, and Russia (of course, Europe has been there right along with us the whole time). But better still, they have figured out how to use this same marketing strategy to sell us wars, incite international terrorism to keep us in line (and begging them to bomb the crap out of “them”), and make the western world overweight, complacent, and so financially embroiled that we can never get out from under.

Why would these people ever allow Universal Health Care, when they have so much to gain by keeping us working massive overtime in order to pay for medical treatment that is mostly necessary due to the lifestyle they have led us to by the collective nose? They use prescription drugs to keep us ill, and ridicule naturopathic remedies and practitioners that might be able to actually cure us (can’t have cures – must just mask symptoms). Fifteen years ago Chiropractic care was ridiculed, until the medical community saw that it was a cash cow.

The basic strategy here is to keep us so indebted that we don’t have time to be activists, radicals or even notice that our lives no longer belong to us. But cleverly, they have wrapped it all in a pseudo-affluence so that when we start to complain, we realize that our non-stop lives of work-eat-sleep, interrupted by soccer games and dance lessons for the kids and brief interludes at Starbucks or a day spa or watching an NFL game, aren’t nearly as bad as the victims they greedily bring us so we give a heavy sigh and go back to being a corporate slave ((ever wonder why suddenly over the last 8 years the media is covering so many natural disasters in disadvantaged countries, or why when there’s a hurricane or wildfire we literally see non-stop coverage until viewership starts to fall off?).

Stop and ask yourself why Clinton Derangement Syndrome exists, and why it runs so deep. Monica Lewinsky has nothing to do with it (other than she was used as a way to enrage the rabble in the flyover states to buy into the concept and show these bitter low lives that their beloved President wasn’t who they thought he was), and there is no reason for it still to run so deep after this many intervening years (Hillary has ruffled virtually no feathers as a Senator with her extensive knowledge and diplomatic skills). And ultimately in this election, it was the media and Obama’s blogger team stirring up CDS among the unwashed masses that allowed the DNC to select Obama in a manner totally reminiscent of the 2000 election. Again, how long did you try to wrap your head around how Gore could have given up the fight so quickly after the obvious and barely disguised gaming of the election? “They” knew they had won when W. was re-elected sort-of legitimately (only a tad more than the usual manipulation of the results). The prize was within sight, and the only thing standing in their way was another Clinton, easily dispatched with their new-found power and tactics. But what they didn’t count on was 18 million Americans waking up from their sugar-induced coma, the PUMA movement, or the idea that a run-down old has-been moderate like John McCain would rally the troops and find extra support in the guise of a moose-hunting, God-fearing reformer from Alaska.

They have once again underestimated the American Spirit, our strength, our pride, and our ferocity. Right now, we have them leaning back on their heels, taken by surprise and unprepared. Let’s not get complacent again. We must continue the attack as relentlessly as they have, and not stop until each and every one of them are out of power. We must return America to the great Republic of our Founders and FDR. And a large part of “them” are the MSM. It’s time to let them know we aren’t watching anymore. PUMAs must unite and incite! Perhaps we need to empower a Katie Couric (herself a victim of misogyny and being pushed out of her network anchor job) to poke at the bear by the only way we can. Watch her broadcast, and make it clear to everyone why we are doing so (including Couric herself). It’s not much, but perhaps it’s a start. “They” are starting to understand PUMA Power. Let’s make it mean something.
