Just yesterday we were enlightening you with Rob Reiner’s political philosophy (see video here). Well his insights have only become more elegant since then:

      Free will and liberty are like Godzilla to the progressive party. It is always that way with ideologues who’s schemes rely on the ignorance of the masses. There‘s is a satanic quest to force surrender by God’s children. Never works though. Now trying to harness the “church” for the agenda of the Statists has crossed the line of separation. This is a treasonous and felonious assault on the first amendment. They must be held accountable. The trail is too wide and too deep to ignore,,,,.

    I wonder if this ignorant lib realizes his description of Hitler’s run for office was
    identical to Obama’s run for office. Once Obama gets in, we’re all told by the
    media that our economic stiuation is the ‘new normal’. Hmmmm…. we have to
    lower our standards because we have a black president? Sounds like our
    schools, workplace, testing for jobs, we continue to lower our standards for
    them. How low can we go?

    His “Criteria” are laughably simplistic, describing the current administration to a “T” in the eyes of many on the right.

    If the Tea Party is Charismatic Leader away from being like the Nazi’s – Mr. Reiner’s obvious conclusion, then what does that say about the Democrats who already have their charismatic, Fox News/Republican-hating, millions of “green Jobs” offering leader?

    Aside from slightly less teutonic soundtrack and more circular logo, some might see some similarities…

      It couldn’t be any more clear if you were reading a book (or writing one). The progressives use a playbook and it reads just like hitler’s run up. From surreal poster of the exalted leader, to youth civil defense forces (better funded than the military?). From the indoctrination dept of re-education, to the jobless youth who will get paid to “volunteer”. From cabinets full of ba’czars working for the soros propaganda Networks and carbon exchange credits (shares) to harness greed for toting the party line. Corruption~!

      The twist here is knocking of the elderly who are throwing a wrench into the works. Living longer and offsetting propaganda and indoctrination campaigns for the incoming youth. I cynically and realistically see the need for these “Anything justifies the means” to skew the living in their favor……

      There are many hard working Jewish people who are members of the Tea Party. These people are businessmen and women who have built businesses from scratch. They fully realize what the Obama administration’s Tax and Spend policys along with such assenine laws such as Cap and Trade & Health Care will do to their businesses. Every business in Americais hurting because of Obama, Reid, Pelosi and environmental wackos such as Henry Waxman and Al Gore and the idiotic policies they espouse.

      Rob Reiner was born into a rich. performing family. He has never worked a real job in his entire life. These performers spend their lives pretending to be someone who is a figment of a writer’s imagination. Now he is a producer/director which means he is no longer capable of portraying a character but he coaches others on how to do it. Essentially he is an empty vessel and as you know an empty container makes more noise than a full one.

      Debunking Liberalism: Understanding Narcissism

      Trinkets of authenticity are what today’s Liberals are famous for, and not just in their plight for survival as Obama is demonstrating here. This feigning, these trinkets of authenticity are the mechanisms responsible for the whole upward mobility that liberalism, as an ideology and politic has had over the years, over the decades. But as usual what we are witnessing is only the most outward surface of liberalism, of what we’re being allowed to see.

      But take notice then, over time as liberalism grows bolder it shows more of itself. Metaphorically, and for small instance, first it punches you in the face and then goes about saving itself from retaliation by denouncing violence, pointing at you as being angry and full of hate and obscenities. Previously, no one saw the actually punch; but now, currently, they will boldly land one square on your jaw in the open for all to see. Quite simply they are taking a stand. They believe they have created enough realities, enough images and beliefs for all around them to survive by, to live by, and to define themselves by so much so that they feel they can explain and rationalize all things away.

      But we have to come to an understanding here and now: Liberalism is not going to go away by pointing out how bad that it is, that it lies, that it cheats and that it steals . . . that it positions itself as a perpetual victim of the people that are themselves trying to save themselves from it. Merely reporting on it, bringing awareness to the strategies and movements of modern liberalism is not enough to beat it back and defeat it. Its constructs are far too engrained in society; it has significant influence and power because again, it fluidly creates realities, images, and beliefs that flow through each and every instance where it exists. Juan Williams and NPR are perfect examples of this observable phenomenon. Political Correctness, a tool of liberalism to shape realities, images and beliefs was brought out like a knife from a drawer to cut the head off of what no longer served its narcissistic purposes. A reality was created from an image that was created from a belief . . . the effectiveness of Political Correctness was on full display.

      Anyone that has grown up with narcissism in their family and has escaped it psychologically or has been in a relationship with a narcissist and separated themselves from the same controlling forces and layers of insanity that over time sets in, they will more easily understand the point that’s being expressed here. Unfortunately though, many do not understand narcissism until it is too late to escape its psychological chains such as America has collectively, as a culture and a society been shackled to. Primarily, this is because narcissists above all things renders helpless the ability to know reality, the ability to recognize untruths and deceptions . . . it does this so successfully because in the world of the complete narcissist reality is whatever they need or want it to be, what they tell you that it is. This is clearly on display each and every day observing liberalism, the collective narcissism of society.

      So, when we say we are fighting liberalism, we are essentially saying that we are fighting a version, a transfigured and projected version of narcissism. How you go about escaping narcissism’s grip is of another much longer and complicated conversation though but must take place.

      And if you doubt the power of narcissism and its significance in defining liberalism, as a collective narcissism, you are in part a victim of its influence. Sounds ironic, because it is . . . Liberalism, narcissism, they’re a continuation of rationalizations and contradictions, stacked one on top of the other, layer upon deceptive layer, image after image, beliefs built upon beliefs built upon ironic rationalizations and contradictions: Our reality, so they want us to see.

      Simple, and openly convincing, this comes from none other than Harry Reid’s own words this past week: “but for me we’d be in a worldwide depression” (Foxnews.com). Add the personalities of Pelosi, Frank, Obama, Emanuel, Gibbs, Axelrod, etc. etc. and you have a collective force of narcissists that defines modern liberalism.

      From here, we can take a look around us and see the walls of the immense hole we have been placed in, that we cannot easily scale to escape as they are shoveling down on us the dirt that will eventually bury us alive should we fail to define what it will take to crawl ourselves out. And then understand, there are members of the GOP that have clean shoes, no dirt under their fingernails . . . nor do they have empathy as they look down at us standing in the shadows of our beliefs.

Some of the other things Hitler did that are very similar to the Obama administration are that he tookover the Banks (Obama has done the same), took over the auto industry, took over the media (Obama and cronies trying to do the same), anyone that spoke out against him was imprisoned (Obama has not done this but he has done everything to try and discredit Beck and others on Fox as crazy).

I would love to see him get into a discussion about religion with Mr. Maher. I don’t think they would be yucking it up the way they were in the above clip.

      Does Mr. Reiner ever REALLY listen to those on the left. Rachael Maddow, Mike Malloy, Ed Schultz, etc. Talk about hate! I haven’t ever heard someone on the right telling a person to, “go plan your father‘s funeral’ the way Malloy did to Cheney’s daughter.
