Where do they get the talking points?

Link is farked. I get a “forbidden.”

Odd. I just tried it again and it worked just fine. Well then, here is an alternate link. It goes to Salon, and requires you to click through an ad first. An advertisement, and maybe a political carton, if you are lucky.

Thanks for the new link. Hysterical cartoon.

I’m a conservative, but they must have left me off the mailing list. Anyway, I really do see this crap from both sides. The left, I’ve noticed, doesn’t so much have buzzwords as a defined writing style which, ironically, to me seems almost corporate in its use of redundant words as padding.

I run a transcription business form home, and a lot of my work comes from folks you could very loosely call “liberal-left” ( a multicultural affairs office in a women’s hospital, studies on minority-targeted programming in a public broadcaster, etc). I often know what these folks are going to say before I hear it. There is a certain pattern to their speech, and lots of redundant words.

Right: I’m an Asian guy.
Left: I self-identify as an Asian-Australian male.

That sorta thing.

Huh! This is in no way a reflection on either party, but I’ve noticed that trend too, among my hyper-academically-inclined friends and professors. The overly-specific “paradigm talk” and definitions of every other word – that’s interesting.

Gentlelizards, it doesn’t look good. A giant asteroid is heading straight towards us, the climate is shifting, and we all have brains that are only the size of a walnut.

Now now…, let’s not play the “blame game” here. We need to look for the positive aspects of extinction.
