Here’s something that I am quite sure has flown under your radar. And why not? You certainly won’t see anything about it reported in your local paper or on network TV. How about we get the Heritage Foundation (a conservative think tank, of which you should be a member) to meet with the National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) in an effort to get a few art displays developed and promoted that reflect how global warming is a piece of science fiction, how the Christian religion has performed charitable efforts for centuries, how the American system of health care has produced the vast majority of healthcare advancements, and to commission certain art works that are favorable to Reagan, Bush (1 and 2), and paint both Pelosi and Reid in a bad light. Pretty neat, huh?

And I trust that your reaction is – “No way! That would be completely inappropriate! We would never do that, or have any expectation that the NEA would cooperate in such an effort.” Ahhh yes, naiveté reigns supreme.

So I suppose that you would be surprised to learn that on Thursday August 6 the NEA held just such a conference call that was orchestrated by a liberal think tank called United We Serve and also included the White House Office of Public Engagement. The subject of this call – to get “cool people to join together and work together to promote a more civically engaged America and celebrate how the arts can be used for a positive change.” The goal was to engage the arts community to inspire civic service by the general public in four key areas. Two of them were “health care,” and “energy and environment.” One participant asked a very cogent question – Is this the role of the NEA?  See his full report at BigHollywood.Breitbart.com. His research revealed that the NEA was formed in 1965 under President Johnson as “a public agency dedicated to supporting excellence in the arts, both new and established; bringing the arts to all Americans; and providing leadership in arts education.” No where could he find a mandate to proselytize on public issues that are currently under heavy political debate.

This participant reports that the session closed with these statements from the NEA: “This is just the beginning. This is the first telephone call of a brand new conversation. We are just now learning how to really bring this community together to speak with the government. What that looks like legally? … bear with us as we learn the language so that we can speak to each other safely…”

He closes his blog with another cogent question: Is the hair on your arms standing up yet?

See yesterday’s blog about the negotiation tactic where you overload the opponent and he will give in to much of what you want just to get rid of you. Alternatively, engage the cultural agencies, along with the regulatory agencies, to brainwash and indoctrinate the population until they simply say “ENOUGH!” and allow the public option, the forced transfer of even more productive wealth without effort on the part of the recipient, and the use of the empathy vote in the administration of justice thus removing her blindfold. Even if the radicals don’t get everything they have wanted, they get enough to completely change the complexion of the America as it was founded and as we all grew up knowing it to be – warts and all.

Do you still think that the current administration is NOT trying to socialize this country and indoctrinate its population with its Godless view of the world? Ahh yes, naiveté does reign supreme.
