Why People Can't Face the Truth about Obama

By Deborah C. Tyler <http://www.americanthinker.com/author/deborah_c_tyler/>

The psychological processes which prevent people from facing facts when the
unthinkable has become obvious can be explained by the models of social
psychology called cognitive dissonance theory.

Cognitive dissonance is the mental stress and discomfort caused when
important beliefs, attitudes or values, called cognitions, are
inconsistent, conflicting or contradictory to each other. In the 1950s the
psychologist Leon Festinger
<http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=2&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0ahUKEwjL7aifrv3JAhVIHD4KHdOgAJYQFggoMAE&url=http%3A%2F%2Fpsychology.about.com%2Fod%2Fprofilesal%2Fp%2Fleon-festinger.htm&usg=AFQjCNE8DdiomEy71VZUeUBxtTLO09bq_A&bvm=bv.110151844,d.eWE>
theorized that the mind spontaneously, continuously reduces cognitive
dissonance to enable goal-directed functioning in a paradoxical,
inconsistent, deceptive world. Festinger's discovery founded a rich
tradition of research which has demonstrated how the mind resolves
contradictions. It provides a powerful way to understand why people can't
face what President Obama is doing to America.

Research has demonstrated countless times that cognitions do not have to be
true to create dissonance, they just have to be believed. Barack Obama was
elected to reduce the dissonance between the beliefs 'America is the land
of the free', and the falsehoods 'America is still racist' and 'President
Obama will go a long way to solving the problem of racism.' Because
'America is racist” is false, its corollaries are equally false. 'We must
elect a black Democrat -- not black Republican -- because Republicans don't
emphasize America is racist. Obama is fabulous, no need to know much about
him, or whether he can lead the nation. He will make us feel better about
ourselves'.

The antecedents of Barack Obama's hatred of America are now well
understood. Obama was groomed from the womb to abhor this white majority,
predominantly Christian free enterprise Republic. From his expatriate,
capitalism-hating mother, from his alcoholic Communist father and his perv
Communist mentor, detesting America was in his mother's milk and the blood
in his veins. But it was the murderous Bill Ayers who recognized in Obama a
destructive potential greater than a million bombs cooked up in basements.
Ayers concocted the poison cocktail called Barack Obama that everybody
wanted to drink, but nobody wanted to taste first.

America is Barack Obama's prey. He is tearing America apart and feeding the
pieces of her life to his foreign and domestic fellow travelers. He is not
transforming the nation but terminating it. Even the most transformational
administrations haven't enabled the murder of Americans by declared
enemies, weakened the national defense, mocked the concerns, and dimmed the
hopes of average Americans as this president has. Even the highly
transformational Franklin Roosevelt did not return Nazi generals to the
enemy during the war as Obama did in the Bergdahl swap. Roosevelt did not
entertain and enrich Nazi bigwigs as Obama has the Muslim Brotherhood.
Imagine Roosevelt facilitating German atom bomb research and enriching the
Axis powers as Obama has in the Iran deal. No president has erased the
nation's borders at land and sea as Obama in advertising inducements for an
invasion from around the world. No president in American history has aided
enemies, undermined the economy and derided the American people as the
current commander-in-chief.

The *immensity* of Obama's disloyalty is key to why people cannot face the
truth about him.

If the Obama election were going to reduce the dissonance he would have
started his administration thusly: “As I have said, we are one nation,
going forward together. Mine will be the first truly color-blind
administration in American history. Every appointment I make will be based
solely on qualifications and proven competence without reference to race.”
Of course, this is the opposite of what Obama did. He fine-combed through
America searching for scraps of racism. He strengthened the lie that
America is a racist nation as cover for his destruction. Amongst
innumerable examples: Attorney General Holder introduced the Obama
administration by implying the white majority are all racists, built a DOJ
whose foremost concern is racism, carried forward by Loretta Lynch, who
just said a street strewn with American corpses murdered by Jihadi
terrorists is a “wonderful” opportunity to fight racism.

America is racist, so illegals can enter unchecked. America is racist,
destroy her free markets, send billions to nonwhite people as “warmist”
reparations for her ill-gotten success. America is racist, empower and
enrich her enemies like Iran. Barack Obama and his ilk experience zero
cognitive dissonance regarding the contradictory beliefs 'America is about
freedom' and 'America is racist'. They never believed that America or her
Constitution are about freedom. They believe the incurably evil and racist
America must be eliminated for the good of the world.

Before the mass denial of Obama's hatred is explained by dissonance theory,
let's mention subdissonant Americans. Subdissonant Americans have no
discomfort whether America is about freedom or racism because they are too
intellectually limited, dumbed-down, or drugged out to care. If asked “Why
does the sun shine?” a six-year-old will answer, “That is what the sun is
'post to do.” This is termed the moral explanation of concrete thinking.
Based on IQ distribution, approximately 15% of the population do not think
beyond the moral explanation, and do not recognize a president who isn't
doing what he is supposed to do. Other subdissonant groups are those too
ill educated or addicted to care about freedom or racism.

Festinger's induced-compliance paradigm of dissonance theory explains why
black Americans may be the last group to face Obama's destructiveness --
because his policies have hurt them the most. In a famous experiment,
people were instructed to lie to others and say a boring task was
interesting. The induced-compliance paradigm found that people paid only $1
to lie convinced themselves they were telling the truth more than people
paid $20 to tell the same lie! This counterintuitive effect has been
replicated many times. People who received minimal external motivation for
managing dissonance -- those paid the least -- produced stronger internal
justifications to deny their actual experience. The underpaid believed
their own lies better than those paid twenty times more. The overpaid say,
“I'm in it for the money, period.” This is why many very wealthy people
slug the colada in Obama's banana republic while the poorest blacks
continue to justify the president, even as they get poorer.

Obama is destroying America overtly and covertly. By promoting policies
which are normalizing harmful drugs, undermining the natural family, and
generally promoting moral chaos he slyly increases the number of
subdissonant Americans, people too ill or distracted to care. He has
brainwashed or bought off virtually the entire government including the
Republican establishment. A noble people who years ago would have resolved
dissonance by believing in America's goodness and standing firm against
tyranny no longer do.

The social psychologist Elliot Aronson
<http://aronson.socialpsychology.org/> advanced cognitive dissonance
theory, further explaining why people can't face Obama's hatred and
destruction. Aronson's self-concept model theorized the central purpose of
dissonance reduction is to preserve positive self-image (I am a good
person) and self-justification (I was right all along). Because so many
Americans now have been convinced we are a racist nation, to maintain a
positive self-image people cannot face the truth about Obama.

The loss of opportunities and the diminishing of hopes which Obama's
policies have inflicted create a monumental need for self-justification
among his supporters. “The president shows us America is still racist. We
were right all along.” They have let go the truth that America is about
freedom. No one knows how many still stand upon that truth, how many care,
or if there are enough big lies left to elect Hillary.
