They’re like the Deadheads!<\/p>\n
Dianne Mueller writes<\/a>:<\/p>\n I can see why this sharing of the "Dennis Prager experience" is analogous to the Deadhead one, and why we are then drawn to communing with each other every month at our Dennis Prager Group meetings. <\/p>\n But I think my most memorable and perhaps profound "Wow!" moment last night came when Dennis spoke of the minister who surprised his congregation one Sunday when he told them, "God isn’t enough." From our human beginning God knew that He wasn’t going to be enough for us, that we were going to need other people<\/em>. It just so happened that Adam needed a wife (don’t they all!) but more importantly God knew that Adam needed someone other than God Himself. Who would have thought! Even Will Rogers would have appreciated that revelation! <\/p>\n Pragerheads come from very diverse experiences, some religious, some secular and some combination of secu-religious ones, but Dennis reminded us last night where happiness needs to come from and that we owe it to other people to at least act happy even if we’re not feeling it at the moment. <\/p>\n Dennis also spent a good bit of time on how the Chronically Unhappy and ‘Moody’ people can have an adverse effect on children, too. I felt empathy for the young father in the audience, the one who was looking for advice on how to keep a three-year-old from becoming a chronic complainer. (I’m not sure if the young father ever heard someone say, "If you don’t stop that crying I’m going to give you something to REALLY cry about!"<\/em> The line worked on me as a child so I used it on my kids.) Dennis did his best to offer advice but in the end he fell back on the one staple and really ancient tenet: You’ll figure it out.<\/p>\n Like most important experiences I will regurgitate pieces of the evening over time and it will be as though I am just tasting these morsels for the first time. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n From Zipline<\/a>:<\/p>\n Dear God, is this Camelot all over again. Dennis Prager always mentions the Liberals are so attuned to feelings and rarely principles…any expressed principles really are about feelings. Go to Gawker and then watch the ‘cute’ vid then read the comments…one malcontent ruined the flow talking about policy. The rest is just so sweet and you know gushy. Thank God the country is finally in the hands of this gushy couple. Are the Khalidi’s’ Said’s and Ayers’ gushy too? <\/strong><\/p>\n I am still recovering from that tele-orgasm. I wept when he talked about his mother-in-law seriously at first. I oohed and aahed over Michelle and how smart she is. I tittered when they were giggly and flirty and cute with one another when discussing going for walks.<\/p>\n I am so deeply, deeply in love with everything about this family. They are so ___ing normal. Can you recall the last time we saw a normal, loving couple in the White House? Some might argue Bill and Hill but I never saw the chemistry like what seems to exist between these two.<\/p>\n http:\/\/gawker.com\/5089926\/im-not-stupid-man?autoplay=true<\/span><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n Motto: “Feelings First! — one-stop solutions for the self-absorbed.”<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n Columnist Dennis Prager <\/span>writes this week<\/span><\/a> about the “decline of the authority” (moral authority) in the West.
