Lakoff sometimes bores me. He commits the same faults that he claims to solve by continuing to live in an "us vs them" world. Enough already!
SO, the blatent attempts to mariginalize the presidential candidates has reached Mother Jones. Shame on you.
What about Kucinich and Gravel????? Why are these two reasonable men always left out?
Sociolinguistics? "It ain't what you say, it's the way that you say it, that's what gets results." How about "Whose lies do you want to believe?" Bottom line: spinning makes one dizzy!
re: the Hillary southern twang - I'm kind of sick of people commenting that she was mis-representing herself...of course she was! - she was READING in the writer's voice.
indeed. where are Kucinich & Gravel?
its like a bloody *shunning* isn't it? a real down-home *shunning* until we 'get it Right'.
