Thank you
We need to unite now in this 2008 Democratic Election.
For the Good of Middle Class America !!!
Tax relief for the wealthy ??? Why ??? We in the Middle Class need that Tax Relief now!
tax relief is a ... ( 7 months ago by Tuppington)
tax relief is a loaded word.
relief means there is burden
therefore those who want to raise them are oppressors.
john kerry fell into this trap, using all the loaded words.
hillary clinton is now too, just as her husband did, even though the republican party was beginning to get its language back into politics.
the republican party is a honed operation now, but you can only lie for so long until you are caught.
go obama!
He makes a great ... ( 5 months ago by Werthwhile)
He makes a great point here, that if you argue using the other person's language, you've already lost the argument. If you say your oponent is 'pro-life' then you must be 'anti-life.' There are so many loaded terms: 'affirmative action' versus 'quotas' is another one, or 'suicide bomber' versus 'assassin' or 'territories' versus 'Israel.' I like the part where he says that putting the word 'not' in front doesn't negate the power of the words on the other side.
Just as virtually ... ( 5 months ago by JacquesWerth)
Just as virtually all other progressives do, Mr. Lakoff continously refers to RADICA RIGHT REACTIONARIES as "Conservatives." They are not conservative and it is time for us to Frame them with that reality.

I love Lakoff's ... ( 5 months ago by DonkeyofHeaven)
I love Lakoff's analysis. Cognitive scientists are finally rediscovering what Carl Jung had discovered 100 years ago. The problem I have with Lakoff is he doesn't used the word propaganda. Conservatives succeed by using propaganda. You can't just say Democrats have to do better marketing, because the whole point of marketing is the method of propaganda that is intended to prevent thinking beyond slogans. If Democrats just present better slogans then they are buying into the conservative frame.
The term "tax ... ( 5 months ago by DonkeyofHeaven)
The term "tax relief" is like a robber stealing your wallet and calling it "cash relief". The commander-in-thief says, "I'm just relieving you of the burden of this money so you won't have to decide how to spend it."
We need wealth ... ( 3 months ago by bohemond4)
We need wealth redistribution now, Raise taxes on those evil rich bastards! Never mind that they carry the majority of the tax burden. Its just not fair!!Workers of the world unite! Obama for Secretary General!
Class warfare will ... ( 3 weeks ago by bohemond4)
Class warfare will destroy this Nation,. The liberals keep it up,, blah blah . Of course they don't pay income taxes,, HELLO. They pay corporate taxes and the cost is passed to the consumer, do you live in a bubble?
