OBAMA SHRUGGED

by Michael Hart January 5, 2010
Thumbnail image for OBAMA SHRUGGED

When you have made evil the means of survival,
do not expect men to remain good.
Do not expect them to stay moral and lose their lives for
the purpose of becoming the fodder of the immoral.
Do not expect them to produce, when
production is punished and looting rewarded.
Do not ask, ‘Who is destroying the world?’ •You are.**

WE GOT OURS, YOU GET YOURS

by Michael Hart November 26, 2009

Yes. Yes. America. We got ours. Oh yeah, we got the bucks; the houses; the cars; the yachts; all the stuff; we GOT ours. But I’m not talking about the stuff. No.No. I’m talking about ideas. We got ours; we got the ideology. It’s Pure. It’s Conservative. It’s Obstreperous. It’s Precious, America.

It’s Not Racism When THEY Do it

by Michael Hart October 19, 2009

Late last week, Democratic-leaning pollster Stan Greenberg released a focus group study showing that conservative GOP base voters live in an alternative universe of their own political paranoia. In this world, President Obama is ruthlessly advancing a secret agenda to ruin — yes, ruin — the economy so he can impose socialism upon the United States and destroy the core civil liberties of American democracy. And in this covert crusade, Obama is no more than a frontman for unseen interests aiming to annihilate the United States.

Racism, Propaganda, And Health Care Reform

by Propagandee September 12, 2009

An attendee at today’s teabagger protest on the D.C. Mall
In the never ending triumph of form over substance, politics over policy, and emotionally charged food fights over actual debate, the MSM occasionally interjects some reality into their coverage of complex issues like health care reform. Example in a moment.
Take the issue du jour– fictional [...]

SHUT THE FOX UP!

by Michael Hart August 24, 2009

Attention FOX News Advertiser,

I am writing to inform you that I will not purchase your products as long as you advertise on FOX News.

FOX News does not broadcast news, it broadcasts Republican propaganda— lies, hatred, and incitement to violence— including violence against American citizens, Democratic leaders, and President Obama.

Glenn Beck Explains Healthcare Reform

by Propagandee August 15, 2009

After backing away from the greatly lampooned ObamaGator’s Got Your Granny Euthanasia Meme, Beck asks his bewildered guests:
How many people in the Green Movement believe that people are a virus?
Doesn’t matter, even if its zero. Simply saying they do provides him with a premise for his whacky argument that “ObamaCare” is all about “crazy people,” [...]

Dog Whistling Racist Violence

by Propagandee August 7, 2009

The source of the problem?  Lizard Brain is diagnosed by unusually thick cranium and remarkable subcutaneous fat layer; trapped, terrified lizard is always symptomatic.
As Jacques Ellul points out in his classic 1964 book, Propaganda: The Formation of Men’s Attitudes, propaganda cannot create something out of nothing. The human mind is not an empty vessel in [...]

This Week In Teh Crazy

by Propagandee June 27, 2009

When Michelle Bachmann is even too much for Glenn Beck
The leaderless Rethuglican Party has no shortage of members eager to grab headlines with ever more outrageous claims and demonizations of the Democrats and President Obama.
And I am not referring here to the kind of vitriol vomited out daily by the demented talking heads of professional [...]

False Equivalency

by Propagandee June 13, 2009

Tweety during his silver tongued false equivalency rant
On his Hardball show  yesterday, Chris Matthews did a segment called The Hate Machine about the dog whistle relationship between right wing extremists and their “conservative” enablers in the media. Though he didn’t mention the inciters by name, I will– O’Reilly, Hannity, Limbaugh, Savage, and Beck being just [...]

by Propagandee May 31, 2009

Associated Press / Princeton University
Sonia Sotomayor in Princeton University’s 1976 Nassau Herald yearbook. She graduated summa cum laude in history that year.
