They're on to me!

Mentioned at LGF's post about "Choice Moonbat Quotes" following the election, is this gem originating on a pagan forum over at Livejournal:

**Magical Election Ta pering: SHUT IT DOWN!** Ok, I can understand the restlessness I've been feeling since yesterday. There's a lot riding on this election, and passions are running high on both sides, so naturally eceryone and their naked brother who has an ounce of Power and no clue about Shielding is leaking energy like a hair dryer in a bathtub. So it's Shields Up for me, but I'm still getting enough bleedover to make me jittery and a little manic if I don't concentrate. That's all to be expected.

What wasn't expected was that once I filtered out all that background noise, I started hearing a calm, resonable, and powerful head-voice saying things like
"Kerry doesn't have the experience we need in these troubled times." and "Give Bush a chance to make it better."

Anyone who knows me KNOWS these are not my thoughts! And besides, I
voted last week. No, there's no way in Hades these are my thoughts.

Gods-damn it! The f*cking Republicans have got Magical help pumping out
a clear, unified, focused broadcast, and you can be sure, every sensitive is
picking it up. These are the people most likely to vote Kerry, and I'd like to think they are resolute enough not to be swayed by telepathic subliminal advertising, but it's such a rarely-done thing, and so few people are properly trained these days, that I fear it will be more effective. Just watch
and see who says "I was going to vote for Kerry, but for some reason I
changed my mind at the last minute."

Who would be doing this for them? Gee, who are the Mages driving around
in those black Mercedes and Lincolns with the tinted windows? The ones who live in the mansions with the hell-hounds in the yard and the 7-foot tall hairless black doormen? Every town has some, the bigger the town, the more of these "High Magi" you will find.

I have no idea what their agenda may be, but you can be damn sure the
welfare of the common human on the street is not a part of it.

So shield, people, shield. And screen. And if you can shield a polling
place, do it! I'm not saying to try to interfere with people's choices, but rather prevent them from being interfered with.

This is important, people, and it may be too late already.

Wow.

A bit of advice: Honey, those voices aren't necessarily magical workings or the voices of your spirit guides. Lithium and/or thorazine sometimes help. Talk to your doctor.

But otherwise...wow. Who woulda thunk I had that much power?

So, now and forevermore, let me be known as Linda, High Magistra of the VRWC...
