False Prophet, Cult Leader Deepak Chopra Is Afraid Of Sarah Palin
Deepak Chopra on Palin: Don't Elect Another Reagan

Holistic-health hawker Deepak Chopra has joined far-left Sarah Palin bashers, writing that Palin’s conservative views reverse “40 years of feminist progress,” and admonishes voters not to “elect another Ronald Reagan.”
Chopra, in an article entitled, “Obama and the Palin Effect” in The Huffington Post, says that Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin appeals to base emotions, “exhorting people to obey their worst impulses.”
He writes that Palin lurks as an anti-Obama “shadow” and says she appeals to the part of the psyche that counters virtues with negative qualities, such as “fear, anger, violence, selfishness, and suspicion of ‘the other.’”
Citing Palin’s successful small-town appeal and growing values-voter appeal, which have been hugely effective in garnering women voters, Chopra says “she can add mom to apple pie on her resume, while blithely reversing 40 years of feminist progress.”
And in a slam to Republican standard-bearer Ronald Reagan, Chopra advises voters that “it would be a shame to elect another Ronald Reagan, whose smiling persona was a stalking horse for the reactionary forces that have brought us to the demoralized state we are in.”
Part of his contempt for the Alaska governor derives from Chopra’s interpretation of Palin’s values.
He writes that her “small-town values” are “a denial of America’s global role, a return to petty, small-minded parochialism.”
This is what he says Sarah Palin stands for:
"Look at what she stands for:
--Small town values -- a denial of America's global role, a return to petty, small-minded parochialism.
--Ignorance of world affairs -- a repudiation of the need to repair America's image abroad.
--Family values -- a code for walling out anybody who makes a claim for social justice. Such strangers, being outside the family, don't need to be heeded.
--Rigid stands on guns and abortion -- a scornful repudiation that these issues can be negotiated with those who disagree.
--Patriotism -- the usual fallback in a failed war.
--"Reform" -- an italicized term, since in addition to cleaning out corruption and excessive spending, one also throws out anyone who doesn't fit your ideology."
Palin reinforces the overall message of the reactionary right, which has been in play since 1980, that social justice is liberal-radical, that minorities and immigrants, being different from "us" pure American types, can be ignored, that progressivism takes too much effort and globalism is a foreign threat.
The radical right marches under the banners of "I'm all right, Jack," and "Why change? Everything's OK as it is." The irony, of course, is that Gov. Palin is a woman and a reactionary at the same time. She can add mom to apple pie on her resume, while blithely reversing forty years of feminist progress.
It would be a shame to elect another Reagan, whose smiling persona was a stalking horse for the reactionary forces that have brought us to the demoralized state we are in. We deserve to see what we are getting, without disguise.
Wild Thing's comment.........
A false prophet backs a false messiah.
This guy is a major-league charlatan and fraud. Hey Deepak....there's a Community in India that needs organizing.....go back.
What is greater than the love of God, Family, Country that Sarah’s life demonstrates or the qualities that are exhibited by Obama’s friends...Racism, Class envy, Violence, Arrogance, Deceit?
It is good to know this guy's opinion. He also claims you can prevent and reverse cataracts by brushing your teeth, scraping your tongue, spitting into a cup of water, and washing your eyes for a few minutes with the mixture.
Chopra and Obama are both in the false hope peddling business.
He remiinds me of Jim Jones as well as his followers the same kind of brain dead people walking this earth.
He’s got it exactly backwords. Gov Palin represents optimisim, American exceptionialism, and the belief that our country is the greatest beacon of freedom in the free world. The Obamessiah is the shadow. He represents the metastasizing scourge of our nation that says America is the cause of every ill on the planet and that she deserves to be brought to her knees and subjugated to tinpot dictators, fascists and extremists.
I pray the majority of Americans have clearer vision than Deepak Chopra and his benefactor, rascist Oprah Winfrey.
1. Small town values — a nostaligic return to simpler times disguises a denial of America’s global role, a return to petty, small-minded parochialism. 2. Ignorance of world affairs — a repudiation of the need to repair America’s image abroad.”
Oh boy. I think he should stick to scamming people with his “enlightenment” routine. LOL And for 15G a weekend, Deepak will help you “get in touch with your higher self”.
LMAO ....Hey Chopra, have you met Joe Biden yet????
.
....Thank you Mark for sending this to me.

Chopra and Oprah. Sounds like a comedy team. Odd that Chopra healer guy. I wonder how many people may have died following his healing practices.
Speaking of comedy. That Joe Biden video is a blast. The Americans of Indian descent should love his statement. He really knows how to endear himself to people. What is with the New England states and the people they give lifetime political seats to?

Deepak thinks he's channeling Ghandi. I hope all the touchy-feely New Agers come out of the woodwork for Obama. Show the American people what Multiculturalism is doing to the country.

Oh I think he nailed it. Elect McCain-Palin and you will get another Ronald Reagan. Somebody on their side actually figured it out. Only this time we get a very young Reagan, with a long career ahead of her.

Deepak Chopra should be afraid of Sarah Palin because as Barack Obama he is all talk and she is all action.
