Woman calls out Rep. Amash at town hall for turning on Trump
Now that I post irregularly it occurs to me how difficult it has become to find raw footage. I had seen snippets of this woman's on-target criticism of Jeff Flake II and wanted to present her rant in its original form.
All I could get was spin. MSNBC spin. Local news spin--that petty much recycled the meme that states that 2010 and 2014 wave elections were due to anti-incumbent bias--and Fox News spin. In fairness, Jesse Watters did go right to the source to elucidate the spectacle. Chris Matthews brought in a couple of far removed blatherheads to parrot his own talking points.
By the way, Soros And Company are packing these town halls with their activist-actors and Amash took the bait, playing to their approval.
Despite all the hubbub I don't think Rep. Amash answered any critical question. For all of your professed libertarianism and supposed respect for the constitution, why have you remained silent about the tsunami of civil rights abuses under the Obama Administration? Does the top down corruption at the FBI and DOJ merit your tacit approval? Did the hyper-partisan Mueller investigation, an investigation launched without criminal predicate (as it ignored foreign and specifically Russian influence peddling that benefited the Democrat Party in 2016) not raise any constitutional concerns? Will your ever address the FISA abuses that nearly stole an election from your constituents?
I for one do not see a bright political future for Benedict Amash.

"MAKE NOISE 4 Q" sign walked the entire line at the Trump Rally!
Premise: Someone holding a sign that says "Make Noise For Q" walks in front of people lined up for a Trump rally.
You might not want to watch the entire video but please notice two interesting points.
1. It takes this videographer 20 minutes to cover the wraparound crowd. It does not appear that 45's popularity is on the decline.
2. A lot of people are now familiar with the Q phenomenon. Q is mainstream.

David Brooks et al: Can They Ever Be Honest?
So David Brooks wrote an editorial is the ever-sleazy NYT. The headline looks good. Beatle O'Rourke and Gus Hall Brennan should apologize for accusing DJT of treason. Then, we are treated to David Brooks being David Brooks.
Republicans and the Sean Hannity-style Trumpians might also approach this moment with an attitude of humility and honest self-examination. For two years they’ve been calling the Mueller investigation a witch hunt. For two years they’ve been spreading the libel that there are no honest brokers in Washington. It’s all a deep-state conspiracy, a swamp. They should apologize for peddling the sort of deep cynicism that undermines our country’s institutions.
It most certainly was a witch hunt. It was ignited by Obama political appointees who knew tere was zero criminal predicate. All the while, they willfully overlooked the Dems and their assistance from hostile foreign actors including but not limited to George Soros, Carlos Slim, Christopher Steele and even Russian oligarchs.
Yes, we did peddle the obvious: that honest Washingtonians are few and far betwwen. Inconvenient truth: It was a deep-state conspiracy. If you want to talk about undermining our nation's institutions, start with with James Comey and Barack Obama.
https://www.nytimes.com/2019/03/25/opinion/mueller-trump-no-collusion.html
The nation’s underlying divides are still ideological, but we rarely fight them honestly as philosophical differences. We just accuse the other side of corruption. Politics is no longer a debate; it’s an attempt to destroy lives through accusation.
More horseshit. We are opposed by a mob of idiots whose components are unable to express ideology, philosophy or values. Thus, the need to silence us as we can advance our viewpoints with logic and reason. The Dems' only values are loyalty to the Democrat Party and blind fealty to its leaders.

The political media, especially on TV, now has a template it can apply whenever a scandal looms into view, to hook viewers into the speculative story line. According to the Tyndall Report, the three main broadcast networks made the Russia collusion investigation the second-most-covered news event of 2018, trailing only the Kavanaugh hearings, another scandal.
A truthful tidbit but watch how Brooks follows up.
All the players slip into their assigned roles. Straight reporters are doing good, hard work. But the flow of information is not fast enough to keep up with 24/7 programming, so you get this toxic deluge of raw speculation.
More inconvenient truth. The MSM continuously advanced a narrative that they either knew to be false. If they did not know the Russian narrative was created by political operatives and parroted by other political operatives, they should have known. The Russian Collusion was a less credible, less believable conspiracy theory than the Queen Mother Peddles Heroin or the ongoing Loch Ness coverup. If integrity was not available, could they not used a little common sense? Rhetorical question.
The Democrats won the 2018 midterms by focusing on the issues, not collusion. For most voters, politics is about their lives, not a self-righteous TV show.
LIE! The Dems won the mid-terms not by talking about issues but by piling on even more character assassinations. What is worse, it seems that Mueller and company could have completed their report prior to the midterms but they sat on it to help their Democrat allies.
People like David Brooks just cannot be honest for very long.

Requiem For A Website
My website is going to go dark. I will not renew my GoDaddy fees and the site will go wherever dead websites go.
Truth is, I had been neglecting the site for a couple of years. It would be a full time job to chronicle all of the Obama silliness and I already work full time.
I am proud of How America Became Jonestown and even with my dimiinished efforts, the site still holds some gems. My favorite is the parrot trained to say "yes we can" positioned next to human parrots chanting the same idiotic slogan.
The site also featured babies taught to speak the word "Obama", "Hope" the musical, people praying to--not for--Obama and sycophants who take their art form to previously unimaginable levels.
The weirdest thing I have ever witnessed was the deification of Barack Obama. The zombie idiom rose in tandem with Obama worship because it represented a fear that could not be expressed literally, at least not in places like Hollywood.
Ten years ago this blog set out to make the point that Barack Obama was a vapid figure who was not qualified for public office, much less the presidency. This blog also wanted to highlight media bias and to sound a clarion to resist destructive economic policies that would lead us to a debt of $20 trillion with nothing to show for it.
This blog wanted to showcase the corrupt nature of Obama the candidate and later the Obama Administration. Surprisingly, that would be a constant battle that continues to this day. It surprises me just how varied and constant the graft and abuses of power would spew from that band of thugs. Yes, there was Donald Young and Larry Sinclair, a stolen Iowa caucus and dark money from abroad but we did not foresee the president loading up $1.6 billion cash on a pallet to send to his allies in Iran. We did not foresee him using a private email to communicate with a corrupt and possibly seditious Secretary of State.We did not foresee IRS abuses and domestic spying on a scale never before imagined. Not even we the cynical could predict just how rotten these rotten apples turned out.
The facet of Obamacism that eclipses all else is the elevation of Barack Obama to demi-god status. I for one thought that Obama would go the way of the Hula Hoop and the Cabbage Patch Doll. I had no idea that his followers were as silly as they would turn out to be and I expected some of them to outgrow their foolishness, I had no idea it was so deep and so wide and so damn permanent.
How America Became Jonestown is a website that tried to chronicle Obama Worship at its silliest.

The Ugly Truth
The story of Barack Hussein Obama is part Orwell, part "Twilight Zone," part Jonestown and part "Invasion of The Body Snatchers." Obama has made rational appeals to certain special interest groups (the legal profession, unions, teachers, illegal immigrants to name a few) but Obama voters are largely irrational. That is not a patronizing assessment nor is it a snide commentary about people who do not share my political views. It is simply reaffirming the obvious: Barack Obama's ongoing political campaign rarely, if ever, appeals to the voter's rational faculties. For non-members of special interest groups, supporting Barack Obama is a non-rational undertaking.
Obama followers cannot articulate their love anymore than a teenager can explain her first crush. It is visceral, not analytical. It is based not on reason, but sentiment. For many, the ardor blossomed into full blown religious expression. Fools like me underestimated the breadth and depth of Obama worship. It is real. It is too real.
This blog started out chronicling displays of Obama worship. We joked about Obama worship but we didn't literally mean it. Those idiots in 2008, they were just caught up in the moment, right? Wrong! The worship was and is literal. As genuine as Jonestown.
I wrongly thought I could change people's minds by showcasing folly in the extreme. I posted dozens of disturbing videos of silly Obama supporters. Sadly, I barely scratched the surface. There are hundreds of Youtube videos of fools bowing down to a hollow man they do not know and don't care to know. Who needs facts when one is showered with a bounty of such splendid iconography?
Somewhere along the way this blogger felt that he had made his point. Yes, the cult of Obama was as creepy as it gets. The fundamentalists would still bow down to their messiah. Can't save the mindless, no. But most Obama voters would distance themselves from the Kool-Aid cult if only to retain a measure of self-respect. Wrong! 2012.
An aside. The 2008 election made me rethink the merits of organized religion. We are a religious species. If we don't find a sane outlet for our religiosity, we might end up following a sleazy-cheesy community organizer whose real intentions are shrouded in mystery.
Religion by its very nature requires the participant to think in a pararational manner. Fully engage one's knowledge to its limits and then defer to faith. There were guard rails in place. Idolatry was strictly prohibited. The exercise of religion did not license one to practice self-delusion as a preferred lifestyle.
It is imperative that opponents of Barack Obama come to grips with reality. It is time we face the ugly truth. We are witness to the first ever media-generated, media-sanctioned, international religious cult. This is not business as usual. This is Jonestown writ large. Beware the Kool-Aid!
