Lakoff is one of Chomsky’s buttlickers, a little less leftist, but the same crappy linguistics based on innate grammar abilities. Junk politics and junk science go together.
That maybe true, but where is a book of substance being promoted to counter this cultural phenomenon? We are being beat in the arena of ideas by stealth non ideas that feel good? Is this what has come of the lack of vision of the GOP/House and Senate Leadership etc, etc? The lack of taking ideas to people since Newt left is stunning. We are Rudderless and also do not have a Keel. We are not reaching the center and bringing them along like Reagan did. Most of these movie goers are not the type to listen to Bennett/Prager/Hewitt men of ideas type to come to a logical conclusion on something as complex as health care.
