[quote=paramount]Interesting: While America was worried about Duck Dynasty, the NDAA 2014 easily swept through the senate further expanding the police state.
These divide and conquer tactics by the mainstream media now seem to be a commonplace in today’s society. The ability to blow a hot button social issue out of proportion, now in the case of a prominent television star exercising his right to free speech is being used to create infighting amongst the left and the right while a bipartisan effort to strip our rights away takes place…
…[w]ith massive grassroots opposition against the defense spending bill since its inception from both the left and the right, such political distraction was necessary to pass the NDAA with little opposition: 85-14. Roll call has not been made available at this time. The bill is now awaiting President Obama’s signature.
This is key. The “left vs. right” nonsense is being used to divide us. Most of us, when you get down to the dirty details, really want the same thing. They have to create this false divide by using very personal, highly divisive topics…and they keep these things in front of us using the MSM.
As has been noted here before, we hear all about Miley Cyrus’ “twerking,” but nothing about the TPP or other truly important matters. This is not an accident or coincidence.
