Thrice in 3 days I've seen news stories on CNN while at the gym that have a common theme: The Obama administration is acting like a cheap hypnotist, telling you not to believe your ears, eyes, or experience. Only believe what they tell you to believe.

1. An Obama economic expert saying the economy is improving, but the jobless rate will continue to go up, and consumers won't see the signs of recovery, so consumer spending will stay down. Even though everything consumers see says the economy is getting worse, it's really getting better.

2. A Democrat strategist saying that individuals expressing concern and demanding answers and entire crowds in an uproar at Senators' townhall meetings regarding health care is a nationally organized effort. Even though the health care bill is a national mandate coming out of Washington, it's the concerned citizens who are the national machine that's against the citizens.

3. Obama's ABC correspondent-turned-White House Official saying that the videos circulating the Internet of Obama saying he wants single-payer health care are an effort to mislead the public. Even though this is video of Obama himself, that's not what he thinks - even though that's what Obama says, that's not what he says.

(Here's the video of Obama:)


Reminds me of Kenny the hypnotist from Little Britain [video].
