Smoke and Mirrors

A hypnotist counts us collectively back to 2000 - where it all began."We were mesmerized, hypnotized and bamboozled." It was all a deceptive show, performed through the tricks of Smoke & Mirrors.Mr Paine, hypnotist, social philosopher and activist, uses cutting edge investigations - and a sharp pin - to pop the fantasy bubble/babble that fooled a nation into believing that the candidate who came in second, won the race. Look past the barrage of Bushspeak, sound bites, slanted news and spin-meisters and see HOW it was done."Wake up from the trance: we were, as a people and a nation, hood-winked into surrendering the highest office in the land." The crime, treason, points to what we need to do now - what we should have done years ago.The solution is clear: We need to overcome our timidity, uncertainty and fear, and stand up for the right thing; namely, getting our country back. We do not have to sleep walk, nor goose step, any more. We can end this Now.Paine, Stephen is the author of 'Smoke and Mirrors', published 2007 under ISBN 9780615146713 and ISBN 0615146716.
