Do You Think I'm Stupid?
Posted September 7, 2008 | 03:23 PM (EST)
Mr. Obama said it.... "They must think you are stupid." Stupid to believe
that McCain/Palin are "change agents." Change is becoming this campaigns'
ping pong ball and we are missing the point. Gandhi said, "You must be the
change you wish to see in the world." Be it. Don't talk about it, don't
pontificate about it. Be It. Action word. Demonstrative. Maybe Nike just
drafted off that great statesman and made us all "Just do it."
Whatever, the call to action is now. Be it.
Jung said "Only that which changes, remains true." Truth --unvarnished,
well-vetted and precise.
My favorite quote is from The Princess Bride by William Goldman. Init, a
street savvy young man hardened by the realities of the world, tells the
princess..." Life is pain and anyone who tells you different is selling
something."
Life is pain, hard, unfair and yet also achingly beautiful and
transformative when we are walking toward truth.
When the Republicans had their convention and there were signs held high
with the monikers ...."G.I. John and Superwoman" I knew we were introuble.
They were selling a fantasy!
See, we are not stupid, we are humans, we can think and listen and learn.
But if what we are taught is corrupt lies and if we are fed the "family
truth" then we are not stupid, we are brainwashed. G.I. John and Superwoman
take them away from being mortal humans and put them in to the comic book
hero status, Teflon coated, impenetrable and as we are seeing today, in the
case of Mrs. Palin, not even held accountable in an interview.
We are not stupid, but we are gullible, to fear, lies, misinformationand
calculated deceit and that is what we are now up against andwhere we need to
demonstrate the real change.
