FTA
The way liberals frame issues in narratives undermines conservative’s positions in a subtle way that lets Democrats easily defend their disastrous policies.
Following are 10 examples

10) ObamaCare – At one point, the president embraced the word “ObamaCare”. It is the frame for the Affordable Care Act as “Obama given healthcare”. Then, the website debacle and the lies about “keeping your doctor” and “keeping your plan” began to tarnish the word by proxy. Obama dumped the frame went back to the “Affordable Care Act”. The media quickly followed.

9) Progressives – The “liberal” label has lost its glow, so it is back to “progressive” from Woodrow Wilson’s policies of the early 1900s. They choose “Progressive” because it implies that opponents are regressive. Same hula dance, different grass skirt.

8) Tea Baggers -- The Tea Party is overwhelmingly made of decent Americans who believe they have been Taxed Enough Already (TEA), are called "Tea Baggers" (A sexually offensive term) even by Biden. They are the moral opposite of the crude, law-breaking left’s Occupy Wall Street crowd.

7) Pro-Choice -- The term "pro-choice" frames those who are champion a******n-on-demand as defenders of a woman’s “right” to choose. Maybe the "war on the unborn" would be an effective Republican frame.

My usual reminder to readers: All Democrats/Progs are either sociopaths or psychopaths:

Dictionary.com defines sociopath and psychopath thusly:

Sociopath: a person with a psychopathic personality whose behavior is antisocial, often criminal, and who lacks a sense of moral responsibility or social conscience.

Psychopath: a person with a psychopathic personality, which manifests as amoral and antisocial behavior, lack of ability to love or establish meaningful personal relationships, extreme egocentricity, failure to learn from experience, etc.

Right on the money,
Obama is a psychopath by any thinking person's definition.

You're completely correct. And what makes it even worse is that he is a pathological liar narcissistic psychopath. About as bad as it gets. :thumbup: :thumbup:

I don't think any of you who answered are liberals.
Liberal: favorable to progress or reform

All you have done is write disparaging remarks.
Liberal: free from bigotry and propaganda.
:( sadly you are not

Seromer

What's he done that demonstrates
psychopathic behavior?

I won't argue with you because personally I have tried to leave out the descriptive word "liberal" when talking about the rabble that is known as Democrats/Progressives. Liberals do not deserve to be associated with those vermin. I don't believe that as many as 100 liberals exist in America any more. They were once abundant and decent and good Americans. Liberals are NOT progressives. Ad most Democrats are not liberals. As far as I am concerned, the last decent liberal died a few years ago. His name was Patrick Moynihan, a scholar with intelligence that puts most democrats of today in the basement. You may be one of the few.

I must say, however, that any liberal who associates with the swine that make up the democrat party is asking to be tarred with the same brush as the progs. The Democrat Party is not about goodness, empathy, reform or progress. The Democrat Party is about control, about repeating the consistently failed policies that have been practiced throughout the world for centuries, failing EVERY time. The Democrat Party is about force, about redistributing assets, about legitimizing decadence, and about destroying everyone who disagrees with it.

If you are free from bigotry and propaganda, then you should be joining us who are fighting bigotry and propaganda. You should NOT be with the Party who SPECIALIZES in bigotry and propaganda. That's my view. You may not like my views, but I would challenge you to prove me wrong.

The term "liberal" in the context of political discourse is used by "liberals" to refer to themselves because "progressive" which is also used by the same group originated with the C*******t Party in the 1930's. Liberal within the context of political means c*******t, socialist, collectivist, it does not mean free from bigotry or propaganda. It is the "progressives" who have instituted the concept of "h**e speech" to silence those who disagree with them, the liberals who demand that all mention of God, Christ, or the Bible be removed from the public square. The liberals are the ones that have threatened anyone who dares say the Bible condemns homosexual activity with fines, loss of employment, and have stated that not celebrating homosexuality (ie homophobia) should be classified as a mental disease. Don't fall back on the classic definition of "liberal" as was used one hundred years ago. It is not being used that way now and you know that

Excellent! I was just working on posting the same article, and decided I had better look at the "Newest Topics" first...glad I did. You did a better job, adding your usual excellent commentary. Good job.

Thank you, kind sir. I found this to be an excellent article.

I would say the rabble is on both sides.

dennisimoto Loc: Washington State (West)

And, sadly, you quote the opposite of the t***h as being the t***h when it is patently false. It's referred to as, "Liberal Spin," and is a way of life for you.

Tasine Loc: Southwest US

Of course there is rabble on both sides, but never have I known any single person on the right set out to DELIBERATELY DESTROY ANYONE ELSE. I see that from the left ALL THE TIME. Both sides fail, but the political left is evil, unAmerican, h**eful, full of vengence. What this nation needs is an absence of all political parties. I do believe that is one of the basic causes for all that is wrong with our government.

Really? What are republicans trying to do to the President?
