One of my teachers introduced me to the concept of language manipulation when I was still in school, and I’ve read news and political announcements skeptically ever since.
“do away with civil rights protections”
What does that mean, exactly? I presume that it’s duckspeak for doing away with UNEQUAL laws such as affirmative action and hate crimes, where some groups are favored over others.
Put that way (i.e., speaking the truth), it becomes a great deal more appealing. But the standard ploy, of course, is to pretend that all conservatives are racists.
No, it’s Barack Obama, Eric Holder, and their ilk who are the racists.

We have them to thank for one thing though......they and their ilk have rendered the word “racist” meaningless ;-)
