Opinions/Editorials Title: Whoever Controls the Language Controls the Debate Whoever Controls the Language Controls the Debate May 18, 2012 by The Godfather If you can control the language, you can control ideas. By controlling ideas, you can control the way people think and act. Before Frank Schaeffer went over to the Dark Side, he had some good things to say about how liberals think and act. His analysis of language is still applicable: “Think of the use of labels to categorize political activity. Some labels are used to neutralize the actions of certain groups; others denote being ‘one of us,’ acceptable. The words ‘right wing,’ ‘fundamentalist,’ ‘pro-life,’ ‘absolutist,’ and ‘deeply religious,’ are put-downs more than categories. Conversely, think of the unspoken pat on the back and blessing that the following words convey: ‘moderate,’ ‘pluralistic,’ ‘liberal,’ ‘civil libertarian,’ ‘pragmatic,’ and ‘enlightened.”[1]

Whoever Controls the Language Controls the Debate F'ing DUH. THIS is FACT. The libTURDS have had a free pass when it comes to setting the terms of the discussion for decades. Did you ever notice that often libTURDS have NOTHING but words? BUT, those words are the bones of what and how people think and act. ie. "gay", there isn't a F'ing thing "gay" about ANY queer/homosexual that I've ever met or talked to. Without exception they are all the very opposite of "gay". How about "liberal"? When's the last time the American left was ever "liberal"? NEVER is when, the left in America is TYRANNICAL and OPPRESSIVE, they HATE the individual and OUR nation. They are FASCISTS with happy rainbow faces, but they are FASCISTS nonetheless. OUR job as AMERICANS is to NEVER accept their language, to define the argument in OUR, in TRADITIONAL words and concepts. Remember that the next time you are in a line somewhere and some libTURD fool says " EVERYBODY knows .... fill in libTURD LIE of the day or dogma ....", SPEAK UP! Say, "NO EVERYBODY does NOT KNOW .... fill in libTURD LIE of the day or dogma ...." then attack the LIE directly. BE a free individual , NOT a sheeple. FIGHT while there is still TIME. FIGHT for your children and theirs. FIGHT!
#6. To: Mad Dog (#2) OUR job as AMERICANS is to NEVER accept their language, to define the argument in OUR, in TRADITIONAL words and concepts. Traditional words and concepts? You're joking, right? Is this an example of "Traditional words and concepts"? ***** . I didn't know that your name is mininggold calFAG! calFAG, nothing that you say or do means shit all to me or anybody else with even part of a life. YOU are a craven little PUSSY calFAG. My dogs shit out better humans than you are every day calFAG. Shouldn't you be working or are you just living off of your wife calFAG? OH, I almost forgot! Have a SHITTY day cal FAG!
Spoiled, stupid and ignorant, brain dead phuckwads, libTURD fools, tools, and idiots, are the real sickness; the messiah "king" obammy and his regime are only the symptoms.
***** Your name calling and hyperbole are hardly what any sane person would consider "Traditional". In fact, you debate more like a liberal than those you rail against. Your tactics are straight from The Liberal Debate Playbook. 3. Get as personal and vicious as you can, maybe it will distract your opponent from his train of thought. 11. Act insulted. Take umbrage at the slightest contradiction and act as if it is a personal insult. This will make your personal attack seem warranted and just. 12. Use condescending laughter as much as you can. It serves two purposes, first, it dismisses your opponent as being unworthy of your respect and second, it shows your contempt for his arguments. This is a very powerful tool and can really annoy your opponent and disrupt his train of thought.
#7. To: Bill D Berger, Mad Dog (#6) (Edited) Your name calling and hyperbole are hardly what any sane person would consider "Traditional". Mad Dog is the perfect example of the contemporary form of conservative/fundie/stalker. I say let him howl.
#9. To: mininggold (#7) Mad Dog is the perfect example of the contemporary form of conservative/fundie/stalker. I say let him howl. Mad Dog is a piss-poor example of "conservatism". And don't lump that moronic profane blowhard in with the "fundies". His master is Satan.
#10. To: Deckard (#9) . LOL! I love watching you libTURDS herd up! The way you nuzzle and comfort each other is sweet. Your mewling seems so much more self assured when you are surrounded by your herd. btw dickless, what kind of a CONservative uses a handle which is the name of a boss skin job killer who explicates the fact that if you ain't him yer "little people" as he dispatches one of his best killers? Eh dickless? LMAO!
#11. To: Mad Dog (#10) Whoever Controls the Language Controls the Debate Well, looks liked your screwed there, you ignorant sterno head.
