Reality has disappeared.

The Commander and Kadizzle have worked their way to the Flaming Gorge Dam.  What a strange day dealing with the world of fantasy.  The first part of the day we made it to Independence Rock.  This was a very important place on the Oregon Trail. If you did not get there by Independence day it was unlikely you would make it across the mountains before the snow. We stopped and got an interesting perspective from the Mormons at the site where so many Mormons pushed their carts through the pass.  Two groups of Mormons started late and it resulted in a disaster that got over one hundred of them killed by the weather.

To teach the modern Mormon children about what the old timers went through they send them to the site we visited to push the carts the Mormons used to make their trek.  They reenact the tragedy.  At the site there are hundreds of carts for young Mormons to load up and push across the prairie landscape. No one brainwashes like the Mormons.  They can take a young mind and turn it into Mormon mush in an amazing way.  Who could get young people in their teens to go door to door selling fantasy without a thorough cleaning of the brain?

After leaving the world of Mormon make believe we dropped down into the Green River to spend the night.  Soon we were engaged in a conversation with some people in a cabin near ours.  Before we knew it we were having dinner with them. The husband turned out to be a retired lawyer and it was not long before a heated political conversation brewed.  Obama is going to come get our guns,  the U.N. is training soldiers in Virginia to take over the United States.  There is a vast army of secret soldiers all over the United States in the guise of Homeland Security, and on it went.  We live in a very crazy world. It was like having dinner with Rush Limbaugh. Kadizzle of course was living and spouting his liberal fantasy. Reality has been suspend. Just believe what you want.  Want to believe you will die and be made God of your own planet, see the Mormons. Want to believe Obama is after your gun, check with the NRA.. No matter what you want to believe or how outlandish it may be there is someone willing to back up you fantasy, or provide you one premade. The guy in Arizona charged people money to bake them in a sweat lodge. He killed a few.  The Donald tells people outrageous lies every day, they love him.  Just tell people what they are inclined to believe. Nurse people along on any absurd idea, it works.
