DENNIS PRAGER AND I (Or, REVISITING AN OLD MENTOR)

.
LOOSE DOGS ~

With the start of 2018, my schedule at work changed. Instead of beginning at 6:30 AM, I now start at 7:00. This was one of the very few times when in fact "change" really WAS "good".

Unfortunately, though, I've discovered that I no longer get to listen to Adrian Rogers sermons on my drive into work. The good news, however, is that I now hear Dr. James Dobson's 'Family Talk' on the radio during my harrowing drive on Reno's dangerous 395. 

Last week I got to hear an excellent recently recorded lecture from Dennis Prager. Most of you wouldn't know this, but I cut my political teeth on Dennis Prager's KABC nighttime talk show program from about 1987 to October of 1992. While I worked at UCLA, I was either listening to Jazz, to Blues, or to Dennis Prager. I was even a subscriber of Prager's quarterly magazine 'Ultimate Issues'. Here's a copy of one issue that I've saved all these years:

Listening to Dennis Prager helped me to sharpen my own ability to think logically about the Right, the Left, Conservatives, Liberals, Republicans, Democrats, American Patriotism, Communism and other statist forms of government. 

Listening to Prager turned me into a mainstream Republican-like conservative. Which was a very good start. (It wasn't until early 1994 that I got genuinely Red-Pilled, thanks to The New American magazine, G. Edward Griffin, John Stormer, and the book 'The New World Order' by Pat Robertson.)

But it was a pleasure for me last week to take that stroll down Amnesia Lane, listening to Dennis Prager talk about our country's present circumstances and being reminded of why I was so captivated by Prager's analysis of cultural events back when I was still a political neophyte and being prepped for my upcoming graduation into the higher levels or degrees of geopolitical understanding.

Prager was excellent! He included humor and his customary straight-thinking and I was impressed by him all over again, all these many years later.

I have seen all or most of every Super Bowl game since 1972. But if you are like me and boycotting the Super Bowl today and from now on because of "The Kneelers" and the NFL's SJW mind-set in general, you may be looking for something to do today. 

I strongly urge you to listen to the 2-part Dennis Prager lecture I am linking to below. Each part is only about 19 minutes long, and although I disagree with Prager on a few points, I can't emphasize enough how much I think you ought to give Prager a listen and then turn others onto this talk he gave. This is important!!

Prager has a way of cutting through all the propaganda, the dogma, the unjustified feelings, the "fake thinking", and exposing the truth buried under all those layers of deception and misdirection.

These are really, Really, REALLY worth your time to listen to. Please do. And then feel free to post any feedback you may have in the comment section below.

There ya go, Peoples. That gives you an idea of how I got to where I am today, politically speaking. It was that sort of clear thinking which got me started on the path down rational analysis leading eventually to my strict Constitutional outlook. 

Prager makes as much sense to me now as he did in the late '80s and early '90s. This was the first time I've listened to a Dennis Prager talk since October of 1992 and it felt almost like going home again. ...Except, of course, you can't go home again.
