17626 [lbo-talk] DIRELAND: Two Slaps for George Lakoff -- rank: 1000
New from DIRELAND, May 26, 2005 http://direland.typepad.com/direland/2005/05/two_slaps_at_ge.html TWO SLAPS FOR GEORGE LAKOFF George Lakoff's Don't Think of an Elephant is a best-seller among Democratic progressives seeking a way out of their post-election doldrums. Frankly, Lakoff's New Age-y psycholinguistics leave me cold, and many of the reasons why can be found in two new articles that offer sound critiques of him. Longtime author-activist Frances Moore Lappé has penned "Time for Progr ...

Do you know how Hersh does his work? He talks mainly to people in the US national security establishment - i.e., disgruntled officials in Washington.

Financial Times - May 25, 2005 OBSERVER Hillary's stance To be more Catholic than the pope is not the appropriate metaphor but Senator Hillary Clinton managed yesterday to upstage Ariel Sharon, the Israeli prime minister, in being tough on Mahmoud Abbas, the new Palestinian president. Not too surprising perhaps, as both were in the capital to address the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, the influential Jewish lobby group. Clinton has her New York seat to defend next year, even before th ...

No, though I have wondered about the location of your head from time to time. He spent many months in Iraq and talked to hundreds of people.

17638 [lbo-talk] A new turn in US military strategy in Iraq? -- rank: 1000
Marvin Gandall wrote: >I'd call the car bombings "barbaric", but I wouldn't call them "nihilistic". Christian Parenti's used the word "nihilistic" too - the insurgents he'd talked to had no positive vision for Iraq at all. When he asked them what their ideology was, they said "Islam" and "Ba'athism." When he asked what that meant, they couldn't elaborate. He said they'd rather destroy Iraq than let the US have it. Doug
