It most assuredly does! Those lines were written for a man who had a heart, a brain, and courage. They were not written for someone who melts when you pour truth on him.
I was not referring to that one.
It'll be torture to watch -- Leftist screeching and redefining words from a linguistics prof from Berserkely, yikes! But it's becoming VERY obvious that the Dems plan to use Terri heavily in some twisted script they've written for the upcoming campaign season, so consider it opposition research...
The description is hilarious in a way -- they actually BELIEVE this twaddle! -- but I bolded the sentence that concerned me about seeing what they're up to:

Lakoff, George P., Professor, University of California, Berkeley, Linguistics
George Lakoff talked about his book Don't Think of an Elephant: Know Your Values and Frame the Debate: The Essential Guide for Progressives, published by Chelsea Green Publishing Company. He described the elemental differences between conservatives and progressives and traced the differences in political ideology between the parties to differences in the idealized family model. He said conservatives follow a “strict father” model while progressives follow a “nurturing parent” model, basing his findings on research he has conducted as a linguistics professor. He used the differences in these two models to “reframe” reactions to many current issues, such as Hurricane Katrina, Terri Schiavo, abortion, gay marriage, and the recent Supreme Court nominations. After his presentation the author answered audience members’ questions.
