Orwell was a prophet. He just missed the year of the takeover although, the seeds were well planted in 1984. The last two generations have been brainwashed by the media, the entertainment industry, music, lack of parental involvement, and, most of all, the government schools- kindergarten through college. Now, with the takeover of their minds by the internet and i-phones, the seduction is almost complete. If you doubt my last statement, when was the last time you saw a group of people under 35 who didn't have their full attention addressed to their technological gadgets?

Oh I don't doubt a word of it in the least. Matter of fact, the way young people make overtures to the opposite sex these days is by cell phone. Rather than calling a girl or talking to her at school, the guys all text their intendeds first. Then after some cyber flirtations they may get around to actually speaking with them at some point. Drives me up the wall. Young people overall are very reluctant to speak face to face with anybody, I don't know what they're going to do when they want to buy a car or something.

Ben Rhodes, the purported mastermind of the white house spawned Benghazi spin, is no doubt cut from the same cloth. Heaven help us.
