Ok, you don't have to believe me about this but this comes from a very reputable source that I had suspected was happening all along during televised speeches...
When the speech is first televised, the audio portion is embedded with signals that cause the listener to agree with the speaker. This is done only when the speech is telecast live. It is not embedded with these audio signals on rebroadcast.
My 25 year old son and I were watching O during his live appeal for passing the stimulus package. He turned to me and said "Oh, he's not so bad". I fell off my chair at that statement! My son and I can see through his hogwash. My son did say other things totally out of character for him to say about O. He "came to" about 12 hours later.
He asked some friends of his who are able to detect these audio signals and they confirmed what I had thought had happened to him. He was susceptible to these audio signals and yes, they are quite real.
Ever wonder why everyone just loved the stupid program American Idol and would talk about it ad nauseum for days after the show? It had the same type of embedded audio signals in the show. If you had the special equipment needed you could actually "see" these added audio signals that are embedded into these kind of shows. O's handlers obviously know of these embedded signals and what they can do.
Ok, I'm sure you are going to think I'm off the deep end, but I would not go out on a limb like this unless I thought ONE MEMBER here would believe me. You have no idea who I know either.
Think about it for a moment. Why would people even say that O would pay their mortgage, fill their gas tank and other stupid statements that are totally unrealistic if they were thinking clearly? They wouldn't.
So bash away, but while you do bash me, consider this... I just told you the truth.
