Poll question: How well is the Mighty Wurlitzer doing its job? What are you afraid of?
Edited on Tue May-23-06 03:22 PM by undisclosedlocation
Of course, this is many more than one Mighty Wurlitzer, but you get the general idea. Keep the sheep scared, scared, scared and they'll go along with taking away whichever of their rights you might feel you need. Or they'll buy buy buy, as the case may be.

I purposely didn't put on any kind of "I'm not afraid" kind of response because I want to be heartened by a LOT of replies along these lines. Don't let me down now.:)

I think the MSM's nonstop coverage of missing white women falls under Violent crime, but if you can think of a better way to phrase this, I'm all ears.

For my part, I'm scared of everything, but that's due to anxiety disorder. Rationally I get that the anxiety is coming from inside my body; I'm not seriously concerned about any of this stuff, except for the hurricane with my name on it.

Edit: Replacing "Communism (Oh wait-- that's 'how well was the Mighty Wurlitzer doing its job through 1990?')" with "Gay marriage." Not that it's going to get any votes, but at least it's Mighty Wurlitzer up-to-date.

3. Thanks! I'll figure out something to take off in order to put gay marriage
on there. Not that it's going to get any votes, but then none of the others are, either.:)

See you all at Gitmo! (Kidding, I hope)

6. Economic Crash / Housing Bubble Burst
This is a little reported story and I get the feeling that we're all just whistling in the dark and marching very quickly toward a very deep pit (economically).
