I just really think Palin is way past her prime. Most conservatives are ashamed to say they like her now. <br /><br /> <br />Greghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03139782404004492965noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2761684730989137546.post-83589812348240377122012-12-05T13:46:18.997-05:002012-12-05T13:46:18.997-05:00Yeah but Tom,
These "memes" or what eve...Yeah but Tom,<br /><br />These "memes" or what ever are full of shit...<br /><br />These people are all about "freedom" and "liberty" or whatever... and our Founding Fathers and all of this stuff and where did we get the idea for our current system of govt? The whole basis?<br /><br />Ancient Greece no? Democracy/Plato's Republic etc?<br /><br />Well if you read Aristotle he clearly tells us that they used state currency which value came NOT from nature but of Law... used it to manage the economy via positive actions, etc.. worked with the Temples to provide assured distribution of economic surplus, etc...<br /><br />Then you have these dickheads like Beck/hannity/Limbaugh and whatever morons out there sit on the radio SELLING GOLD all day and tying that to "freedom" or "liberty" or something.... when the founders of western civilization flatout REJECTED that...<br /><br />they have scrambled eggs for brains...<br /><br />These memes should not be hard to overcome in this regard...<br /><br />rsp,<br /><br />Matt Frankohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11978352335097260145noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2761684730989137546.post-72996174934807543672012-12-05T12:04:27.869-05:002012-12-05T12:04:27.869-05:00Is there anywhere a more clueless pundit than Sara...<i>Is there anywhere a more clueless pundit than Sarah Palin. Every time she opines on anything it is brutal. Throw out the S word, the C word, maybe the M word..... what a loser.</i><br /><br />The scary thing about Palin, Beck, Limbaugh, Fox, etc., is that that they speak to and for a whole constituency that is captured by this framing.<br /><br />I put these posts up to demonstrate the framing, which is constructed of memes that are a mixture of fantasy masquerading as fact and moralizing in which neoliberalism is interwoven with "traditional values."
