In the midst of the health care ‘debate’ and the lies and scare tactics being used by the right to promote an image of doom should reform and a public option be realized, I give you this. Imagine you never saw the movie Ferris Bueller’s Day Off and the following trailer was your first glimpse as to the type of film it was. .
.
The message here is that with the right amount of spin and tweaking of the facts to make them sound as you want, anything can appear evil.
And as the right play their sick game, people die. That’s a fact.

Sounds as scary as the mind of a schizophrenic victim.
Its sad that a few weeks ago it was National Mental Illness Week and nowhere did I find acknowledgemnt to same. Its sad that Americans think about health care reform and still do nothing for preventive medicine with their mentally ill, when in not doing so they spend billions in institutionalizations which cost them more.
Its sad that we fear the mentally ill, when the mind is just another body part!
Its sad that ignorance with regard to the mentally ill is the predominant factor that keeps them isolated and not part of our society. Why? When we allow people with all other illnesses into our society?
The lack of acknowledgement and therefore preventive medicine would benefit all the numbers with regard to the health care reform.
Can’t hear you out there? Or from a schizo’s mind, I hear you too much, help me!
Right on! That’s why people are willing to actually kill when they listen to one type of preacher or spinner all the time over and over with no counter balance.
I majored in ‘Armchair Psychology’ so my ‘Armchair Opinion” would be don’t just sit-on-it-and-spin!!
Watch and LISTEN to 3 different types of spinners a day (one should be a comedy) on one subject, plus at least 1 over seas news site and you might be able to garner a true fact here and there.
Otherwise…..
You will believe everyone is jealous because the voices only talk to YOU
