The most professional and talented Leftists appear every weekend, both Saturday and Sunday morns, on MSNBC- two hours each day.
The show is "Up" with Chris Hayes.
Unlike the loud, screaming blather found on the Matthews or Schultz shows, the show is peopled with young, talented, well-informed dedicated Leftists.
It is a mistake for conservatives to miss the opportunity to peek into the collectives' group-think.
Two topics of interest today...
1. The group sat around firing barbs and historical references at the target that they feel will be the greatest threat to Obama's reelection...Romney.
The attacks when back as far a Goldwater, and Mitt's father...
The amusement for me was how much of the mugging would apply to Obama as well: "He moved around the country... lived in so many places...no real home...."
To this they attached the idea that one would favor raising taxes if one felt at home in an area.
I said they were good....
2. But to see the strategy that is designed to be a psychological ploy...the group went on to attack capitalism in a number of ways. They emphasized the way that capitalism 'favors and selects the few..." and the multifaceted benefits of being rich, of a huge gulf between the winners and losers....
...how the rich had two last names....'Preston Bush'..
...Academy-Award Winner Wallace Shawn came on to read a section from his one-man monologue about a wealthy individual thinking about the less-endowed among whom he was having dinner... and beginning to identify with them...
....A Christmas Carol? Or another dinner with Andre?
But they avoided the obvious pitfall of championing communism or socialism.
"I lived in the Soviet Union in the 90's," said one young lady..."and the great joke was, we know how bad communism was, and now we see how bad capitalism is!"
Here is the brilliant Deus ex Machina of Obama's reelection plan: subtle examples and references to a mythological divide between the rich and the poor....
....the "99%" vs. the "1%".....
...the need to have an Obama to protect all from capitalism.
This show must be seen in order to be prepared....
...but watch it with a 'jaundiced eye.'
