1. It's a codeword for
anti-gay rights, anti-affirmitive action, anti-choice to southerners and other "family" groups.

3. which "people" are you talking about?
the term "values" and "family values" only show up in international broadcasts and southern area's Notice how northern politicians don't use that term. It doesn't hold well up here (in Chicago, southern IL... well that's a different story)

People who are already with chimpy know exactly what that term means. Everybody else is confused by it.

4. all of his "repug base"..they here "values" and it's a catch phrase
everyone likes to think they have values....but bush is a incompetent babbling idiot who is nothing more than a puppet for TPTB...most people would not consider those "values".

7. true
I agree with your statement that "...bush is a incompetent babbling idiot who is nothing more than a puppet for TPTB"

But the population of this country is a collection of easily led sheep. If you want proof of that, look at TV programing closely and see what types of shows (and their coded messages) rise to the top of the ratings on the public (non cable or "private" networks) air waves.

"Values" is a word that catches some people's attention. As I said, it doesn't work that well in the north where we are more "independent" (or so we think) whereas in the south, people are more "communal" (and they know it)
