97. I know the history of the phrase
I also know that the most successful right wing propaganda builds on perceptions that already existed, and that have some basis in objective reality, and I also know that nothing helps them more than when we take the "opposite position" to their idiotic talking points and accept battle on their terms and by their rules - as the people on this thread are clearly doing.

The effectiveness of propaganda such as "latte liberal" is a reflection of our pathetic and profound weakness, not of any great or brilliant work by the right wingers.

So we identify who "might as well be McCain voters" by whether or not they say "latte liberal."

I think you just made my point for me.
