Josh Sugarman is reputed to have said that calling the AR-15 rifle an "assault weapon" would cause the public to believe it was a full auto and that anybody could buy one at any gun store.<BR/><BR/>The list of other words meant to mislead is legion, such as "cop-killer bullets," "gun show loophole," etc.<BR/><BR/>In the 1940 presidential campaign Wendell Willkie said the "New Deal" was an inspiring phrase but that he wondered what it actually described. He quoted Oliver Wendell Holmes to the Roosevelt congregation who said, "A good catch word can obscure analysis for fifty years." [Source: <I>The Forgotten Man</I>, by Amity Shlaes, page349-350]<BR/><BR/>Fifty years is about how long it took for any real analysis of the New Deal. Thankfully, the left's deceptive phrases get exposed a little sooner now.Flash Gordonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15961777081207590217noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4063163257624231557.post-43367640527822595292008-08-14T10:16:00.000-07:002008-08-14T10:16:00.000-07:00Expose Obama's economic agenda with the definitive...Expose Obama's economic agenda with the definitive bumper sticker of the '08 political season: I'LL TAKE YOUR DOLLARS AND GIVE YOU CHANGE. www.OBAMAtookmydollars.com.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4063163257624231557.post-59609417738780299552008-08-13T21:41:00.000-07:002008-08-13T21:41:00.000-07:00I know what you mean.
