The "wordsmiths" WILL label you, malign Democrats,
and steal the next election if we can't recognize their propaganda.

Listen to this interview of Frank Luntz
from NPR, Fresh Air with Terry Gross.

If Luntz's word twisting doesn't raise your blood pressure you may not
have a pulse... and EXPECT him next election, working for the Kochtopus.
