“I Demand More Than Your Vote–I Want Your Mind!!”–A Call to Boycott Obama’s Media Buy (10/29) (UPDATE 1X–Verdict: Infomercial a Flop)

I Demand More Than Your Vote: I Want Your Mind!

I want, no make that need, you to join me in supporting a critical nationwide movement. This Wednesday, October 29, 2008, Senator Barack Obama has purchased half-hour blocks of programming on NBC, CBS, and Fox News Channel. His intent, I firmly believe, is to use Neuro Associative Conditioning (NAC) and Ericksonian Hypnosis to subconsciously influence millions of voters to “pull the lever” for him on November 4^th whether they want to or not. We must do everything possible to stop the American public from watching.

As GRL pointed out last Sunday in the The Past Week roundup for October 12-18, there is substantial evidence (pdf file) that Obama is using hypnosis techniques to win supporters any way he can. Please take the time to read at least the majority of the linked pdf file; I know it is extremely long, but it is important and explains in great detail what I cannot in this limited space. After you read it, forward it to all of your friends. I don’t care if they are McCain die-hards, PUMAs, or part of the Oborg. Everyone needs to read this information, and while I know it sounds somewhat over the top, I hope to convince you why this is so important.

So let’s talk a bit about Neuro Associative Conditioning (NAC). Many years ago, in my youth, I was a student of one Anthony J. Robbins. Robbins. There have been rumors on the web for months that Senator Obama is a protégé of Robbins. For those of you that have somehow managed to avoid his influence, is a world-renowned master of psychological operations (Psy-Ops) in the form of Ericksonian hypnosis, NLP, and his own form of this, which he calls NAC. He is a trainer of athletes, movie stars, businessmen, and politicians. Tony is best known for his famous Fire Walking seminars, where he used to teach ordinary people to walk across 2,000+ degree coals in their bare feet. His methods are quite powerful; I have done it twice myself, and have seen literally hundreds of others do the same. Robbins twist on NLP (see pdf file for a description of NLP) is what he calls Anchoring. This involves using a physical unique gesture to link to the feelings you create using NLP and hypnosis. Robbins teaches that you can use anchoring to link the feeling of calm, centered energy and power you feel just before Fire Walking so you can access them at will simply by repeating your unique gesture. Or in Obama’s case, you can link the anchor to the subconscious message you’ve imbedded in your subject’s mind using Ericksonian hypnosis. The pdf file goes into great detail about how this is done, but for simplicity’s sake, all you need to know is Obama’s main unique gesture is this (look at his right hand):

So why, you might ask, is this seemingly innocent hand gesture so important in Obama’s quest to seize control of our nation? Simple; it is designed to make you remember a message that he has implanted (or at least tried to) in the depths of your brain to vote for him on November 4^th. He has been using this gesture for months, but the true success of NLP and NAC is in repetition. The more you see it, the deeper it is embedded and the stronger the subconscious response becomes. On Wednesday, Obama wants to use this half hour to ensure that everyone in America who watches will vote for him when they are triggered by their own action of picking up a pen to cast their vote. (And of course, there is always time to embed future instructions about what to do after the election.)

I’m sure by now the skeptics and Obama supporters are laughing their heads off, but admit it; just a little tiny part of you somewhere is wondering if there might just be something to this. That’s the rational part of your brain trying to battle the non-rational subconscious that’s been NAC’ed. You’ve been programmed to go against your own instincts, and while NAC is very powerful, ultimately the brain you were born with is more powerful if you can only release it. The less emotional you are when the programming is done, the less likely it is to “take”. That is exactly why the Obama campaign spends so much time trying to whip you into an emotional frenzy. That’s why he gets people excited with race-baiting and misogyny (although with the misogyny he’s taken a big gamble that he can pull this off without offending women, which I believe he lost; he’s playing on a centuries-old core societal instinct that men are more powerful and important than women and using that belief to agitate the masses into behaving badly against women). For those of you who’ve wondered why the mainstream media have been so pro-Obama, think about it; who has been more exposed to his speeches, his gestures, his patterns, his hypnosis techniques than those who are paid to watch his every move? Why do you think Obama touches people (especially reporters) so intimately? He’s using touch as part of his hypnosis! NAC is all about using sights (gestures and symbols), sounds (slogans like “Yes, We Can” and “Change You Can Believe In”), and intentional touch (when possible) to link your message deeply.

If you’re still skeptical, stop and ask yourself one simple question: Why would Barack Obama scramble to buy up Prime Time TV slots just 6 days before the election? Even MSNBC seems to recognize the unusual and historic implications of this move:

Short political spots have been the traditional way for politicians to communicate with voters. But a prime-time, sitcom-length commercial would provide Obama an opportunity to make a closing argument to the entire country.

“It’s a luxury to be able to afford that kind of communication,” said Tad Devine, a Democratic media consultant who was a senior adviser to John Kerry’s 2004 presidential campaign.

If Obama was far ahead as the polls indicated 2 weeks ago when he purchased this time, why would he need to make this unprecedented TV buy at the 11^th hour? Why not radio; it’s much cheaper? Why not print ads; also less expensive? The answer is simple – he needs a visual media in order to convey his message. He needs the power of television to plant his subliminal messages and anchor them to the visualization of holding his thumb and forefinger together (as if holding a pen), so when Americans go into the voting booth they will trigger his message within their own subconscious when they grasp a pen to cast their votes.

In case you think I’m the only one that’s noticed this, commenter Hal at Uppity Woman’s blog observed:

A friend has satellite TV in West Virginia and wrote to me that there are, not one, but two channels in the lineup with 24/7 Obomber propaganda.

Now, why would that be? For starters, Obomber and Axelrod are so damn scared that no one has lost WV and won the presidency that they are swamping the Mountaineer state with nonstop ads and pissing off people of that little state in the process.

Before making all these compliments of FOX, you must realize that Rupert Murdoch never met a greenback that he could resist. Whether you call it “good business” or not, Murdoch OWNS Direct TV.

He OWNS a network that will broadcast Obomber’s informercial right before the World Series starts.

Repeat lies often enough and they’re the accepted truths.

I would add to this to say that Obama feels the people of West Virginia need more programming than the rest of America. As far as Fox, it is obvious that Obama has used NAC on Bill O’Reilly –remember the knee touching?– and probably several other reporters and owner Rupert Murdoch (normally a conservative, but uncharacteristically supporting Obama this time through). And they are even delaying the start of World Series in order to accommodate “That One”.

So I am supporting a movement started by NoHillaryNoVote:

I am sharing this idea on several blogs this week where others are not supporting Obama.

For the record:
I am a PUMA in northern VA
I am a Black woman
I am a registered democrat
I am one of the voters who supported Hillary Clinton in the primary

AND I am not voting for Obama-Biden.

I am so tired of hearing about Obama spending big bucks to run his infomercial on October 29th by trying to blanket mainstream television airways.

I think we need to begin to promote a “Turn off Obama-TV” on October 29th. I say – Do NOT Listen to or Watch Obama’s 30 minute commercial on October 29, 2008. Obama thinks he can MAKE us listen to what he has to say by spending all that money in order to have his commercial on several networks at the same time. We do NOT have to listen. We do NOT have to support this gimmick.

Let’s all participate in: “Turn Off Obama-TV” that night. On October 29th for that specific 30 minutes: Push mute – Turn down the sound – Change the channel – or Turn off the television. Do not listen to any more of Obama’s hot air, false promises or his lies about McCain-Palin.

INSTEAD for that 30 minutes do something else with your brain cells — (here’s a few ideas)

Watch a different tv program
Watch a DVD or video
Listen to the radio
Listen to a CD
Read a book or magazine
Play a board game
Surf the web
Watch YouTube videos
Call a friend on the phone
Play a video game
Write an email to a friend
Work on one of the word games or word puzzles in the newspaper
Play the piano (or instrument of your choice)
Do some exercising
Play a card game
Work on your family’s scrapbooks
Bake Halloween cookies or cupcakes
Work on your favorite hobby

Between now and Oct 29th – Let others know that you are choosing NOT to listen to & to NOT watch Obama’s commercial. And encourage others to join in a national response to this media effort.

Please join me by choosing to turn away from Obama’s efforts to control the outcome of this election by spending so much money on a one night media blitz.

Tell all your family & friends to “Turn Off Obama-TV” on Oct. 29th!!

I wish there was a more radical way that I could make Americans understand the importance of not watching this program. My hope is that most of America is so sick and tired of the election that the concept of watching another solid half hour of a politician droning on for 30 minutes will just plain turn them off naturally. But if there is even one single person that you can influence in your circle of family, friends, and co-workers, please urge them to stay away from this broadcast. If they are already an Obama supporter, they don’t need to hear more of the same. If they are against Obama, they don’t need convincing. If they are undecided, ask them to read a transcript of the program on Thursday, or read a recap. And I cannot emphasize this enough: DO NOT PUT LINKS TO THE BROADCAST ON YOUR WEBSITE! If you want to share details, do it with printed words. As many PUMAs have noticed, reading Obama’s speeches leaves one quite confused as to why the masses are so enthralled with him. The words themselves have little or no meaning. He rarely answers questions that he is asked (except in the disastrous case of Joe the Plumber), and has a strange speech pattern that lulls one into a hypnotic waking-sleep trance. This is NLP at its best, and Obama at his worst.

In these final days of the election, it’s important to use every tool at our disposal to stop the overthrow of America. Please spread the word; feel free to link to this article, pass the pdf file around, and most importantly discuss this as a proven scientific process. Anthony Robbins has made millions of dollars using NAC, and Barack Obama hopes to use it to take over America.

UPDATE Posted 10/31 by GRL

Oops. Noted infomercial producer Anthony Sullivan declared the whole extravaganza a ‘flop.”

TV’S TOP AD STARS PAN BAM

Two leading infomercial stars agree: Barack Obama‘s half-hour self-promotion last night was a flop.

“I don’t see enough smiling. Doom and gloom totally,” said Anthony Sullivan, one of the biggest names in infomercial history.

“I feel depressed right now,” added Sullivan, an Englishman famous for his infomercials touting the Swivel Sweeper and Smart Chopper. The only thing saving Obama, Sullivan said, was when the candidate appeared live at the end speaking at a rally in Florida.

“I think it needed it. I was about to throw myself through a window because it was depressing,” Sullivan said.

He and AJ Khubani, who has produced infomercials for 25 years, said Obama also fell short of offering solutions to the dire problems he laid out.

“I didn’t see a payoff. Classic infomercial is you show the before and you show the after. I didn’t see the music or the crashing waves of the Pacific,” Sullivan said.

He joked the producer “needs a spanking” for lacking optimism.

Khubani said: “Every infomercial lays out common problems, whether it’s a flabby belly or acne, and then it gives a solution. In this case the solution is Obama.”

But Obama didn’t pitch the product – himself – convincingly enough, he argued.

“We always spend much more time on the solution than the problem and he did the opposite,” Khubani added.
