Current Events - #201 - #26 - Are we “just satisfied” with the “misdirection”?

The media and the TV “bombard” us with “We can do better...!”, “We ought to bring others to help us!”, “We can do more..! etc. But there is never a “How?”. The producers of these shows try to make it controversial, souped up, loud and aggressive. They give us “good looking” spokespeople who can serve up the producer’s wishes, talk loud and fast and will never include a “How?’.

This is indeed a steady “bombardment”. It does not allow a person time to think! Perhaps this is the reason for this mass “misdirection”!

And yes, this is “misdirection”. This is filling the media experience with such noise and change in subject that the listeners do not have a chance to think about the real “important” issues The listeners, however, do not generally feel they lack important information. They feel “informed”. They do not feel motivated to stop and consider what the really important issues are. “Misdirection” is working! Take the people’s mind off the important issues and fill the air with many issues and make them loud enough and fast enough so the people will not think about selecting the most “important”. They all feel “informed”! They do not feel they need any “real” specific answers....... Gay marriage, Wall Mart discrimination suit, Dope addiction, School money, Welfare, Minimum wage, Medicare, Prescription drugs, etc.; and, oh yes, the war in Iraq and the cost of Homeland security.

What’s really important?
What specific solutions are offered?
Is “We must do more!” or “We must do better!” an answer?...... Where are the specifics?

(If you want to just complain, I guess that’s OK, but it doesn’t lead anywhere. It’s just more loud noise!)

Unfortunately an election is coming up. People must decide who they want to run the country. Is this decision based on “real information” or the steady drone of “misdirection”? How, exactly “How” do they want the country to run? Be specific.... Be truly informed as to the “Successful Alternatives”!
To many, the internet “must be true”....... To others the media must be well informed! Hogwash! Even our government has succumbed to lies and interpretations.
Well then, how do we truly become “informed”?

It’s the old “reason and logic” thinking. Question every source but at least be aware of what other sources think, Then, and only then, can you reasonably make up your mind.

Our Nation is in a crisis.
What is really “important”?
Do you have a Nation if Homeland Security is not possible?
No matter what, can anything else survive if the Nation does not?

Yeh! But what about Gay marriage, Welfare, The National debt, etc.?

Does it really matter if the Nation does not survive!!
