Does 2 + 2 = 4?

Well, you’d THINK that anyone who was educated beyond caveman status would ALWAYS certainly affirm that it does.

So, take the case of Juan Williams, as a “tolerable” public face, or mafia mouthpiece, for the left wing socialistic side of the political spectrum---those who advocate for the mob verses the individual.

(An aside---around 50 years ago, as I ended my high school brainwashing career, one of the most memorable subjects I was assigned was to write a paper about the origin of ballads. The crux of it came down to an unanswerable (seemingly) pair---either an INDIVIDUAL or a GROUP created the first ballad.)

If anyone lives AWAKE for long enough, after a quick or a slow dipping in the sewage flowing from the mouth of all Juan William types must either revolt one, OR become congruent with one’s own beliefs.

2 + 2 = 4.

Thus, how many times does one need to be water boarded with the same old filth that escapes from all Juan Williams clones, before just seeing their visage or reading their name instantly results in the choice to turn them off?

My lifetime of experience long ago raised my own tolerance of ANYTHING said by Barney Frank, et al, leftists to ZERO----don’t let them TELL you zip, and you don’t have to ASK anyone for permission to follow this habit.

The choice of a good and HONEST life is to keep GOOD company, and to try your damnedest to avoid BAD company.

I missed, therefore, the explosive statement by Williams, even as I usually try to observe what the hell O’Reilly is narrow casting through his window to the world, at any time. Remotes are GOD!

“The Harder They Come, The Harder They Fall”---thank you, Jimmy Cliff! How salient this unhappy drug-era song is, in that it applies to fooled leftists, MAYBE, eventually, when they have been mugged by reality. Hence, BOTH Williams AND NPR, and its leading minions, are going from their haughty “Hard Coming” position to a “Hard Fall”! And, it still is----FALL!

Another way to understand the sad condition of programmed leftists, and even all of us, to varying extents, is that when it comes to surviving over time, our experiences, and most vitally, our reactions to them, necessarily result in any present-day noospheric condition. That is, our takes and opinions are at once shaped by nature AND nurture, through time.

So, we resemble a tightly wound baseball. When born, you could say the core is our born “nature”, our karma, our predispositions. And, then, the string starts to wind away!

Well, in my tightly-wound-string opinion, leftists usually, especially as they get older, and don’t change---or are FORCED to change by real conditions---can’t be reasoned with. How paradoxically funny, too!

Consider a “Renaissance” man, like Christopher Hitchens. His whole Weltanschauung rests on the RATIONAL, and he, Pavlov-dog-like, always instantly repels any “irrational” threatening-to-him ideas. And, yet, as intellectual and bright as he doubtlessly is, he is as closed up as the hardest baseball, and his entire essential character is---irrational!

Finally, I had my own trivial Juan Williams moment.

About twenty years ago, I was subbing in a school (Ygnacias Valley High School, I think) in the Concord, California area. The “lesson plan” for one class was, for me, great, because the teacher had arranged for these two young ladies to spend the hour promoting---Earth Day like left wing crap. I suffered through the whole time, and couldn’t help myself, as it was ending. I asked the brainwashers if they were paid to do this, and who paid them.

It was so “far out” to see them tighten up! Of course, they just ASSUMED, that like all “normal” teachers, I shared their far left agenda. The silence was deafening, as they oozed out of the room.

I was never “invited” back to that school, and at year’s end got the news that I was unacceptable as a sub, for them! The teacher got his revenge, but it was worth it. Even so, I doubt my “subtle” dig even made an impression, let alone mattered, to the poor being-tightly-strung up students. Do YOU even remember ANY single class, or any substitute teacher---let alone, teacher?

It is, though, always possible to make that hoary “purse” from ANY “sow’s ear” that makes up reality.

Therefore, Obama, in his own unique tightly-wound-string way, couldn’t help but be himself, by invoking the idea of a “teachable moment”. And, all along, HE is THAT---a gift that never stops giving!

However, in Truth, the “teachable moment” phrase is really another simple way of saying what I have always tried to use as a “lens” through which to “view”, or process ANYTHING that comes into my consciousness---don’t buy it!

Look, life, at least material life, is indeed a CONSUMER driven reality. Just so, when it comes to thoughts and ideas. Does one BUY everything? NO!!!

Being conscious IS to choose---Consciously.

Be Consciousness

Contemplate Consciousness.

Transcend everything in Consciousness.

This is the epitome of the way of Truth.
